Hi All - I have an application where I need to reliably meassure the surface temperature of a filler to indicate that it has reached 80DegC, this is stainless stell and I cannot penetrate it. I then need to get this info to a remote mounted PLC. This is where it starts to get messy, the filler has a PLC that is S7, in fact thtere are 2, one ont he bowl that I need to measure the temp on and the other mounted remotely. The 2 PLC's talk to each other. I need to get the temperature back to a CLX processor that is quite some distance away, however, it does have devicenet nodes very close. I don't have any spare AI/O on the S7 gear and it isn't imperative that the filler knows that it has reached the set temp as this is controlled by the CLX.
So in a nutshell, I am after a relatively cheap, reliable surface mounted wireless temp probe that I can get the signal back to either a DeviceNET node or the CLX processor.
Any suggestions?
