Honeywell Central Hub
Wireless Gas Monitor Connector

The Honeywell Central Hub connects wireless gas monitors to Honeywell’s Safety Suite for real-time data insight and management. Each Honeywell Central Hub can wirelessly communicate with up to 64 remote monitors directly. The Honeywell Central Hub can connect to Honeywell Safety Suite via Ethernet, Wi- Fi, or 4G LTE. Honeywell Safety Suite supports the higher capacity of 500 monitors when integrated within a plant-wide deployment. Safety Suite provides an integrated ‘One Data Platform Strategy to Honeywell customers. The whole application covers web-end systems to mobile apps. They jointly build up a rapid channel for managers to respond to an accident on site rapidly, based on real-time data collected.
The Central Hub can be powered by 12 to 28 volts DC or powered by USB(5V2A) input.
