Maximum Communication Distance
When the gateway is installed as instructed in this guide, typical maximum communication
distances between the Sushi Sensor and the gateway are as shown below. The actual maximum
communication distance is affected not only by the visibility level but also by the environment of
the installation location.
Case
Visibility level
Installation environment example
Typical maximum
communication
distance [*1]
I
A sufficient level of visibility is
ensured between the gateway and
the Sushi Sensor.
Along a large river or coast
Oil drilling well, pipeline
Up to 7 km
II
Outdoor locations where a sufficient
level of visibility cannot be ensured
between the gateway and the Sushi
Sensor
Various plant environments
(Tank yard, pipe jungle)
1km
III
Installations in environments where
the sensor is completely surrounded
by structures (including indoor
installations)
Installations in a complete "shield"
such as the inside of an enclosure,
indoor production facility, and the
inside of a building
Varies depending
o n i n s t a l l a t i o n
conditions.
[*1] This table shows the maximum communication distance values when Yokogawa Wireless Vibration Sensor (XS770A) is used as
a Sushi Sensor.
If long-distance communication cannot be established between the Sushi Sensor and the
gateway, no communications can be established because the Sushi Sensor is installed indoors,
or communications are consistently unstable, consider installing an additional gateway.
