Wireless Sensor Network Deployment
“Instrumentation without the cable pull — 80% less installation labor.”
The bridge from field instrumentation to permanent monitoring — secure wireless nodes deployed on running plants in days, not months.
Wireless Sensor Networks
- Days instead of months: a paper mill added dozens of boiler sensors in days.
- Secure 2.4 GHz industrial mesh — encrypted, authenticated, plant-proven.
- Hybrid architectures: wireless nodes alongside existing wired cDAQ/cRIO.
- Synchronized multi-node acquisition with GNSS/GPS time-sync engineering.
Scope: Wireless strain, vibration, thermocouple & IR node deployment; mesh network design & RF site assessment; gateway/router placement & commissioning; battery or field-cable powered nodes; integration to plant LAN or cloud.
“~80% installation-labor reduction documented on boiler deployments.”
Next step: every wireless deployment is the first step into Edge Solutions (Level 1).

Here at Integrated Test & Measurement, we love diving into the nuts and bolts of how things work. While setting up a project using 120-ohm strain gages with the NI-9237 module, I found myself reflecting on the history and technical reasons why 120 ohms became the original standard for strain gages. As it turns out,…
