PA HELI-3-IS, Intrinsically Safe High Gain Tunnel Antenna

Product Overview

This high gain directional antenna compliments our Wi-Fi MinePoynt tunnel and mine antennas. The combination of MinePoynt beam antennas for long distance thru-tunnel links with this directional antenna, exploits Poynting’s fifteen years’ experience in designing and manufacturing antennas for underground mining data networks. This antenna is also suitable for oil/gas chemical environments where IS equipment is required.

The A-HELI-0003 IS is an Intrinsically Safe antenna with high resistivity non static radome. This antenna is also suitable for oil/gas chemical environments where IS equipment is required. A-HELI-0003IS is a directional antenna whilst the closely related A-HELI-0008 fires in both directions (Bi – Directional). This antenna gives you a low cost network infrastructure for current voice and data needs in mines and tunnels.

Features

• Proven antenna performance giving maximum range in all directions
