Product catalog summary
Roosevelt Island Tramway
Application: The Roosevelt Island Tramway in New York City is an aerial cableway connecting Roosevelt Island and Manhattan, serving as a public transport system. It was upgraded with a new cableway system by POMA in 1976.
Challenges: The tramway's path is at an acute angle to the Queensboro bridge, with a steep ascent and radio interferences, posing challenges for automation technology.
Solution: A PROFIBUS Safety PLC with DATAEAGLE 3702A for wireless PROFIBUS transmission using Bluetooth was implemented.
Result: Since 2010, the system has operated without malfunctions despite numerous radio communications.
Seadrill Limited
Application: Seadrill Limited uses DATAEAGLE radio links on the West Navigator drilling ship to replace susceptible cable connections.
Challenges: Establishing a reliable radio link to avoid costly downtimes.
Solution: A wireless PROFIBUS and PROFIsafe radio link using Bluetooth was installed in an explosion-proof housing.
Result: The system has proven reliable over two years, saving significant costs.
Pfänder Tunnel
Application: The Pfänder tunnel uses radio technology for shaft access systems to ensure safety and reliability.
Challenges: Implementing safety-critical radio transmission over 320 meters.
Solution: DATAEAGLE 3000 system was installed for smooth operation and reliable radio connection.
Result: The system has operated successfully for several years without interferences.
Erdinger Arena
Application: The inclined lift at Erdinger Arena is controlled via radio modules for ski jumping events.
Challenges: High susceptibility to interference along the 300-meter travel distance.
Solution: DATAEAGLE 3000 transmits PROFIBUS signals, ensuring reliable operation.
Result: The lift achieved almost 100% availability, even during high-interference events.
Helene Fischer Stage Technology
Application: Stage technology for Helene Fischer concerts uses DATAEAGLE for radio-controlled stage elements.
Challenges: Ensuring reliable transmission over 80-meter rails without trailing cables.
Solution: DATAEAGLE 3702 provides PROFIBUS connection with Bluetooth technology.
Result: The system operated smoothly without interferences during concerts.
Scheffer Crane Technology
Application: Automation of crane and lifting systems in a galvanizing plant using fieldbus systems.
Challenges: Maintaining reliable radio links despite changing transmission conditions.
Solution: DATAEAGLE 3000 PROFIBUS radio link ensures reliable data transmission.
Result: The system improved production efficiency and quality without failures.
Wireless Technology in Treatment Plants
Application: Endress + Hauser uses DATAEAGLE for monitoring parameters in wastewater treatment plants.
Challenges: Establishing a cost-effective sensor network over extensive outdoor areas.
Solution: DATAEAGLE 3703 radio modules transmit data using Bluetooth technology.
Result: The system has run reliably since 2013, improving process control and saving time.
