Emerson TREXCFPKLWP3 Trex Communicator

AMS Trex TREXCFPKLWP3 Device Communicator

Product Introduction

The Emerson TREXCFPKLWP3 belongs to the trusted AMS Trex family. Technicians use this device to communicate with smart field instruments. It successfully replaces older 475 Field Communicators. This model works with both HART and Foundation Fieldbus networks. Additionally, it includes a rechargeable power module and wireless capabilities.

Emerson manufactured this communicator with ATEX, CSA, and IECEx intrinsic safety approvals. Therefore, the TREXCFPKLWP3 suits hazardous areas perfectly. This communicator also features Bluetooth, WiFi, and NFC radios. For instance, users can connect to Valvelink Mobile without extra charges. Meanwhile, the premium support plan covers three years of extended warranty and accidental damage.

Technical Specifications

The TREXCFPKLWP3 runs on the robust Trex platform. Its communication module supports full Device Communicator functions. Furthermore, the application package includes HART and Foundation Fieldbus. The power module uses a rechargeable Li-Ion type. Specifically, it provides a full day of operation on a single charge.

Several connectivity options make this device flexible. These wireless features include Bluetooth, WiFi, and NFC. However, availability depends on local spectrum approvals. The product certifications are KL: ATEX, CSA (US/Canada), and IECEx Intrinsically Safe. This approval also covers FISCO where applicable. The communicator comes with an AC adapter, USB cable, and lead set with connectors.

A hand strap and quick start guide are also included. Additionally, users get a resource DVD for reference. The Foundation Fieldbus power plug is included as well. This happens when ordering the Device Communicator Plus communication module. Remember that the TREXCFPKLWP3 offers a one-year warranty against manufacturing defects unless otherwise stated.

Mechanical and Environmental Parameters

This communicator weighs approximately 1.8 kilograms. Its rugged housing handles industrial environments well. The operating temperature ranges from -20°C to 50°C. Meanwhile, the storage temperature goes from -30°C to 60°C. This device resists dust and water according to IP54 standards. Therefore, it works reliably in harsh field conditions.

Installation and First Use

First, charge the Li-Ion power module fully before first use. Next, attach the hand strap for secure handling. Then, connect the lead set to the device under test. Use the TREXCFPKLWP3 touchscreen to navigate the main menus. For fieldbus devices, plug the Foundation Fieldbus power plug directly.

Furthermore, activate the unit to access the free ValveLink Mobile application. This software adds significant value at no charge. Meanwhile, ensure that local laws permit wireless operation. The TREXCFPKLWP3 includes standard support from Emerson. This covers extended protection against manufacturing defects and accidental damage.
