Supported Applications

The Omega UW Series Wireless Receivers with 4 Outputs and 4 Alarms (model series UWTC-RPT1) function as a Long Range Wireless Repeater/Receiver System designed for use with UW Series Transmitters. The system extends the range of wireless signals from industrial transmitters, probes, and connectors by receiving data at specific RF frequencies and retransmitting it to a USB-based receiver connected to a PC via Windows® software.

Documented capabilities include collecting data from up to 48 wireless sensors simultaneously. The system is configured for long-range monitoring applications where standard line-of-sight distances are insufficient, supporting outdoor ranges extending up to 5 miles (8 km) when equipped with high-gain antenna kits.

Operating Conditions & Performance

The UWTC-RPT1 series operates within an ambient temperature range of -40°C to +85°C (-40°F to +185°F), as specified in the repeater documentation, with a storage temperature matching this envelope. The system supports humidity levels up to 90% RH non-condensing for standard models and is available in NEMA (IP65) enclosures.

Wireless communication performance varies by configuration:

Receiving Frequency: 2.4 GHz
Transmitting Frequency: 915 MHz for USA/Canada or 868 MHz for Europe
RF Transmit Power: 100 mW (+20 dBm)
Indoor/Urban Range: Up to 305 m (1000')
Outdoor Line-of-Sight Range (Standard): Up to 1.8 miles (3 km)
Outdoor Line-of-Sight Range (One High Gain Antenna): Up to 3 miles (4.8 km)
Outdoor Line-of-Sight Range (Two High Gain Antennas): Up to 5 miles (8 km)

The system is powered by a 5-12 Vdc supply at 500 mA, with an AC wall adaptor included for the repeater unit. Compliance includes FCC Part 15 rules and IC certifications.

Configuration Options

The series offers configurable options to meet specific installation requirements:

Housing Types: Available in a Standard Model (Painted steel) or NEMA Model (ABS base, polycarbonate lid with IP65 rating).
Frequencies: Configurable for 915 MHz (USA/Canada) or 868 MHz (Europe); specify "915" or "868" in the model number.
Antenna Options: Integrated antennas are standard. The UWTC-RPT-ANT-900 high gain antenna mounting kit is available to extend range, including one high-gain antenna, adapter, and 10' cable.
Cabling: A 25' extension cable (UWTC-RPT-CABLE-25) supports the high-gain antenna installation. USB cables are included for setup and configuration on Windows® systems.

Key Product Differences

The UW Series distinguishes between repeater and receiver units within the same family:

UWTC-RPT1: The wireless repeater unit that receives signals at 915 MHz or 868 MHz and retransmits them at 2.4 GHz.
UWTC-REC1: The USB receiver unit that accepts the 2.4 GHz signal from the repeater for PC connection.

Physical dimensions differ by enclosure type:
