Intrinsically SafeWirelessISA 100.11aIP66/IP67

TLV iT5-IS-TPN Wireless Temperature and Pressure Monitoring Sensor

TLV iT5-IS-TPN TrapSensor is an intrinsically safe wireless monitoring sensor for simultaneous temperature and pressure measurement up to 400 °C, based on ISA 100.11a.

TLV iT5-IS-TPN Wireless Temperature and Pressure Monitoring Sensor

The TLV iT5-IS-TPN TrapSensor is a wireless monitoring sensor designed for high-frequency monitoring of crucial steam-using equipment such as heat exchangers, pumps, turbines, and equipment with the possibility of air present in steam piping. It provides simultaneous temperature and pressure measurement based on the ISA 100.11A communication protocol.
