Red Lion Controls is launching an HSPA+ (GMHSPA) cellular module for the 'Graphite' HMI platform. The module utilizes an HSPA+ cellular network to provide high-speed data communications for remote site applications such as oil and gas, water and wastewater, power, utilities and renewable energy. The GMHSPA+ module is programmed with the vendor's 'Crimson' software and can be plugged into the HMIs. The combined solution supports over 300 different industrial protocols and allows users to monitor and control a variety of devices and processes such as temperatures, pressures, flows and levels. The HMIs offer a built-in web server that allows users to monitor and control applications via PCs, tablets or smartphones. SMS text messages and email alerts provide early warning of process problems.
