WAVE Siren Station
Wireless Audible Visual Enunciator (WAVE)
The WAVE Siren product line introduces industrial-strength equipment to the field of audio and visual alerts for reliable, highly-effective and fully-automated wireless communication during emergency situations and adverse weather.
The WAVE Transmitter broadcasts digitally encrypted messages to activate WAVE Siren Stations within a two mile radius. The Transmitter offers automated triggering of Siren Stations during programmable hours of operation, or manual triggering of Siren Stations at any time.
WAVE relies on low-frequency RF communication to operate in noisy environments and over challenging terrain.
Wave Siren Delivers:
- Automatic or manual wireless siren actuation within a five km radius
- Secure encoded RF communications; automatic self-tests with system status indicators
- Adjustable horn volume
- Multi-stage strobe and audible notification
- High intensity strobe light or tri-color light stack options for visual notification
- Siren Station NEMA 4X molded fiberglass enclosure
- RF transmission test signal for Siren Station site selection
- Manual key operation or automated operation with contact-closure signal
- Programmable hours of operation to restrict automated external control
- Solar- or AC-powered Siren Station available
- High capacity, battery back-up for uninterrupted operation in a lightning environment
- Exclusive quick-connect technology for horns and solar panel
Strike View Server Software
Strike View Server Software ( SG002) provides a graphical display of real-time lightning data, and helps users analyse storm progression, categorise lightning information, and estimate the time for resumption of normal operations
Additionally Strike View Server Software provides tghe setup and management of customised email and text message notifications, whilst providing human dispatch operators with the audible and visual cues, resettable timer ( from last lightning strike) for the timely communication of threat alert updates with regards to the notification of All Clear for the resumption of normal operations .
Production Management will also find the report logging function useful for their logging of unplanned downtime, management of contractor downtime, and provision of information for use within their reporting function.
Strike View offers a whole suite of software options including:
- Client licenses for connecting additional computer to the strike view server over LAN
- Client Site Licence allowing up to 10 Strike View Client operating across the LAN (requires purchase of SG002 and SG 002 NET)
- MSN multiple sensor network links multiple Strike Guard Server across the LAN requires purchase of SG002e to site for each Strike Guard in the network
**Strike Guard with CS110 software.
All Strike View software packages are offered for Strike Guard integration with a CS110 Electric Field Mill.
Indoor Bulkheads
The WX range of equipment bulkheads a vital for protecting Strike Guard equipment from the harsh conditions of some higher-risk applications,especially involving mining and other industry sectors that may be exposed to dust, salt spray, and other contaminants.
The WX range of bulkheads a fit for purpose and will streamline equipment installations by having the bulkheads custom designed to accommodate all system into connections, and which suit the ease of mounting of the proprietary Strike Guard data lightning receiver, and Wave Transmitter equipment and their various interconnections to external components.
The WXEIB equipment indoor bulkhead includes a Nema 4X rated polycarbonate enclosure, fitted with power supply and complete lightning protection for all incoming conductors to suit the Strike Guard Lightning Data Receiver and Wave Transmitter.
The WXESB equipment solar bulkhead includes a Nema 4X rated polycarbonate enclosure fitted with power supply and complete lightning protection for all incoming conductors, along with battery, and battery backup/ recharge module o suit the Strike Guard Lightning Data Receiver and Wave Transmitter.
The WXEIB – SG is a scaled-down version that accommodates the lightning data receiver only, although includes power supply Surge diverters and the glands and referrals to accommodate all incoming fibre optic/ outgoing power supply and fibre optic data connection.
Indoor Bulkheads with PC
The WX range of equipment PC fitted bulkheads streamline the Strike Guard installation for a true plug and play capability, by placing all major system components within the enclosure, including an industrial touchscreen PC , thereby compartmentalising the entire Strike Guard ‘System” and protecting it from the harsh conditions , common in mining and other industry sectors that may be exposed to fine dust, salt spray, and other contaminants affecting critical systems and their semicondutor electronics.
The WXEIB -PC equipment indoor bulkhead is a Nema 4X rated polycarbonate enclosure, with a door mounted industrial touchscreen PC that is preassembled with the latest Microsoft Windows, and Strike View Server software installed for turnkey use.
The bulkhead is fitted with a mini UPS , battery backup, hardwired power supply and surge protection for all incoming power, data and coaxial, conductors associated with the Strike Guard Lightning Data Receiver and Wave Transmitter.
The WX –PC- SG is a scaled-down version that accommodates only the lightning data receiver only, although includes power supply Surge Diverters and the glands and ferrules to accommodate all incoming fibre optics and power supply cabling.
Critical Asset Protection Bulkheads
CAPB’s offer the ultimate protection of electrical equipment from lightning, through the disconnection of equipment from the interconnected conductive electrical systems.
CAPB’s implement an automated active lightning protection ‘by isolation’ of industrial control systems and central pump stations, by combining best engineering practice of passive lightning protection, with Strike Guards fully automatic active lightning protection bulkheads.
CAPB capabilities include:
- Selective isolation – Disconnects selected conductors from the critical asset.
- Selective grounding – Grounds disconnected conductors.
- Selective shutdown – Disconnects power conductors via independent circuits ( with programmable delays), to provide the ultimate defence against over voltages electrical overstress and lightning surge currents.
The Wave Sequencer, typically installed within a Critical Asset Protection Bulkhead then (CAPB), automatically initiates a programmable shutdown process to place critical equipment in a protected state upon any lightning alarm.
The protected asset is then automatically reconnected and powered back up upon the issuance of the all clear by Strike Guard.
CAPB-PUMP
WAVE Sequencer based remote wireless, or local Strike Guard direct(wired) connect for contact closure relay signalling to initiate automatic lightning alarm/shutdown start-up of irrigation pump stations.
Add Strobe-CAPB full visual indication of sequence of condition
CAPB-CENTRAL
Automatic lightning protected ‘by isolation’ and all grounding of field conductors connected to the central irrigation controller computer and related hardware
features a wave sequencer included with fully assembled and tested relay isolation bank, AC power secondary Surge suppressor, RF Surge suppressor, and AC overcurrent protection appropriate for satellite or Dakota systems
design a completely preassembled as a lightning protection bulkhead with metal enclosed switchgear
Includes a 3 foot antenna, radio receiver, battery backup, a seed power supply and 7.5 mtr antenna cable, with stainless steel antenna mounting
The WAVE Sequencer receives radio frequency transmitter messages from the WAVE Transmitter, and can control three (3) outputs to control relays/contactors appropriate for the isolation of sensitive connected loads, such as Pumps, irrigation systems, and other critical equipment.
WAVE Sequencers can be installed on their own, or within a critical asset protection bulkhead (CAPB) which are pre-assembled as lightning protection bulkheads, with metal enclosed switchgear.
