LoRa Wireless 4-20ma Wire Replacement Diagram How-To

How Point-to-Point LoRa Replaces Expensive 4-20mA Current Loop Wiring in Industrial Applications

Introduction In industrial settings—especially oilfields, water treatment plants, and manufacturing facilities—4-20mA current loopshave long been the standard for transmitting sensor data (pressure, temperature, flow). However, trenching and running wires for these loops is expensive, time-consuming, and inflexible. Point-to-point LoRa wireless technology offers a cost-effective, reliable, and scalable alternative to wired 4-20mA loops. Unlike proprietary high-reliability radios (which are prohibitively expensive) or WiFi (which lacks range and interference resistance), LoRa provides long-range, low-power, interference-free communication at a fraction of the cost.

The Superiority of LoRa Radio Technology for Industrial Applications in the Oilfield

Introduction In industrial settings like oilfields, reliable communication is non-negotiable. Traditional wireless technologies such as 2.4GHz WiFi and non-LoRa 900MHz radios often fall short in harsh environments where interference, range, and power constraints are critical factors. LoRa (Long Range) radio technology stands out as the superior choice for industrial applications—especially for monitoring critical parameters like pressure via 4-20mA sensors. This article explores why LoRa outperforms both 2.4GHz WiFi and standard 900MHz radios in terms of reliability, range, power Read more

Customer review of gamma seal lid handle off of etsy. Probably used with the vittles vault

Customer Review of Gamma Seal Lid / Vittles Vault Lid Tool on Etsy

One thing I didn’t really think about when I made the Vittles Vault Lid Handle was that there are people who have arthritis and other ailments that affect their grip and strength. This was one of the first reviews where I learned that my tool helps people who are suffering in some small way. Wow! I have difficulty opening and closing my dog’s vault, but I was unsure if this would fit the smaller vaults. Read more

Customer Review for Wall Mount Key Hanger for Light Switch Covers

This review shows my commitment to making sure you get a good product! Love it. I’ve worked very hard to make the Key Hook product a great product. We recently order the Light Switch Cover Key Holder and the results are fantastic. We live in a small space with limited storage and this immediately helped clear some clutter off our countertop. The first attempt did not fit quite right and the seller immediately reached out Read more
