Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2019195490A1] Systems, methods, and devices for monitoring environmental data in a hazardous environment (25) includes a plurality of modules having an endpoint control module (210) and operational node modules (220) connected to each other in a daisy-chain configuration and connected to the endpoint control module (210), the modules are mounted together on a mounting bracket (260) for a stabilizing placement at a specific location within the hazardous environment. Each operational node has a sensor (226) to monitor a desired type of environmental data and is designed to be interchanged and swapped out easily with other operational nodes. A communication component (250) enables communication between the plurality of modules and a remote data collection center (15) associated with the hazardous location. Each of the modules includes I/O ports (212, 214, 222, 224) to enable power and data communications between the modules. Each of the plurality of modules and I/O ports is compliant with intrinsically safe operational requirements.
