Spinwave Systems

Spinwave Systems has developed a range of wireless sensor network products for all your energy management and building management system applications.

Spinwave’s A3 product line of wireless sensors has been developed to provide wireless sensing to automation systems through open protocols and direct I/O. A3 is designed for environments with severe RF interference. Using patent-pending frequency-hopping technology, A3 sensors automatically adapt to interference for maximum reliability even in industrial environments.

A3 products include wireless pulse counters for sub-metering, temperature, humidity, combined temperature/humidity, and voltage sensors, along with a complete line of gateways for interfacing devices with virtually any open protocol automation system.

Spinwave Systems’ A3 Wireless Sensor Network has been specifically designed for the building management system market.

  • The Network outsmarts changing RF interferences with self-adapting frequency agility in three dimensions, using Spinwave’s U.S. patent pending extension of the IEEE 802.15.4 specification.
  • The installed cost per point is, in many cases, significantly lower than traditional hardwired sensor solutions.
  • The industry’s broadest range of integration options make it easy and cost-effective to interface to virtually any Building Management System.

Applications include:

  • Schools and Universities
  • Manufacturing Facilities
  • Housing
  • Retail Space
  • Office Buildings
  • Warehouses
  • Entertainment Venues
  • Medical Facilities
  • Government Buildings

SWS-3AI Analog Sensor

 

The SWS-3AI wireless analog input transceiver allows to wirelessly enable peripherals with analog outputs. The SWSAI has three analog inputs to measure:
0-5VDC directly
0-10VDC with voltage divider (resistors)
0-20mA with parallel resistor (250 Ohm)

SWS-DI Digital Input Module

Spinwave Systems’ Wireless Digital Input Modules are used to wirelessly monitor dry contacts and make the status available as BACnet, LON or Modbus variables using Spinwave’s BMS Protocol Interface or as digital outputs (wireless dry contact replication) using a BMS I/O Interface.

SWS-DPC pulse counter

Spinwave Systems’  pulse counters are used to wirelessly transmit electric/water/gas meter values (accumulated pulses and pulses per time) and make them available as BACnet, LON or Modbus variables using Spinwave’s BMS Protocol Interface or as digital outputs (pulse replication) using a BMS I/O Interface.

SWRP repeater/router

Spinwave Systems’ Wireless Mesh Repeater/Router significantly extends the range and node count of wireless sensor networks. The installation of multiple Mesh Repeaters/Routers provides alternate wireless communication paths from sensors to wireless receiver modules thus improving the network’s ability to cope with obstacles. The wireless network will automatically “heal” and reconfigure itself if a communication path is obstructed.
