The AMS Trex Device Communicator

Emerson introduces new handheld communicator

DUBAI, October 9, 2016

Emerson Automation Solutions has introduced a handheld communicator delivering an intuitive consumer-quality user experience and a brilliant modern display in a tool built to withstand harsh industrial environments.

The AMS Trex Device Communicator has a task-based graphical user interface built on human-centred design. It also makes device and loop diagnostics easy to understand and field activities easier to complete, said a statement from the company.

Protected against moisture and extreme temperatures, the communicator boasts a rugged design that can withstand the bumps and drops that come from normal use in the plant. The large, full-colour touchscreen display adjusts to lighting conditions and aids troubleshooting in areas where too much or too little light makes other devices difficult to read, it said.

With intrinsic safety certifications, the communicator is certified to go anywhere a technician can go, with no need to shut a process down or get a hot work permit. Long-life batteries ensure that the communicator keeps working even through long days, it added.

Additionally, using the communicator’s built-in Foundation Fieldbus and Hart device diagnostic software, technicians can isolate and repair problems while the devices continue to run. Simple issues can be addressed on the spot, avoiding unnecessary interruption to production.

The segment and loop diagnostic tools allow users to validate loop and fieldbus segment characteristics for easy troubleshooting. With the ValveLink Mobile app, technicians can analyse valve diagnostics results easily on the communicator’s larger screen, said a statement.   

Duncan Schleiss, vice president, reliability solutions marketing, Emerson Automation Solutions, said: “With the Trex communicator, technicians can work more effectively in the field – with fewer tools to manage – anywhere in the plant they need to go.”  - TradeArabia News Service
