A new venture for Otis Instruments, the OI-WF590 4-20mA Wireless Transmitter is to be used in conjunction with ANY 4-20mA output sensor—such as a flame, temperature or tank level—via 4-20mA signal.
The OI-WF590 has two algorithms that the user can select, and uses 12-30 Volts DC. The device is compatible with Otis Instruments' WireFree product line, including the Interface OI-WF985, View OI-WF910, and Relayer OI-WF752. Using a monitor, such as the ProSafe OI-WF784, allows the unit to utilize relays and Modbus out.

A first for Otis Instruments, Inc., the OI-1001 DLS is an Otis-exclusive product specifically designed to coordinate with the Interface OI-WF985 (firmware version 2.0).
The OI-1001 DLS continuously logs the data of up to 255 sensors from a remote location (within radio distance) via a PC. By monitoring a PC, the user will be alerted when either a high or low alarm has been triggered at one (or multiple) on-site sensors, as well as view the cumulative history of past readings from days, weeks, or even months prior.

We are excited to announce that you may now view each of our previously sent eNewsletters from this website, simply by clicking on the following link:

Founded in Houston, TX by Wayne Carroll, upon inventing the H2S gas detection sensor, Otis Instruments emerged in August of 1983 as an industry-changing force. Perhaps even more remarkable than time's test alone, though, is seeing how Carroll has guided the company—remaining adhered to the initial initiative of innovation and quality.
While we're all aware that "they grow up fast," it's hard to believe—especially for Carroll—that Otis Instruments is already celebrating a major milestone that marks the company's years of success at producing quality products for the Oil & Gas industry. Reaching a quarter-century, though, is surely a benchmark that signifies such. Still thriving as a leader in gas detection, it is indeed time to wish Otis Instruments a Happy 25th Birthday....and many more!

We at Otis Instruments, Inc. are pleased to announce that the final piece of the WireFree Product Line's first generation is complete. The last component of this series, the Relayer OI-WF753, is now available for purchase.
The Relayer OI-WF753 is a 16-channel wireless relay/alarm board (with two relays) specifically designed for conjunctive use with the Otis Instruments, Inc. WireFree Sensor Assemblies. Modeled after our Relayer OI-WF752-DC, this product brings all of the traditional Relayer's features to the table--and more.
