Vaisala expands modular Indigo product family

14/10/2021

Vaisala, a global leader in weather, environmental and industrial measurements, has launched its new Indigo510 transmitter, which is compatible with all Indigo smart probes. The features include modular support for one probe at a time and a large touchscreen display for local data visualisation.

The new Indigo510 is the latest addition to Vaisala’s top-of-the-line Indigo transmitter family, all of which are compatible with Vaisala’s industry-leading Indigo measurement probes. The Indigo510 builds on the same modular platform and includes the same metal casing, software and display as the flagship Vaisala Indigo520 transmitter. Indigo510 is also available without a display.

The Vaisala Indigo510 transmitter is an ideal choice for demanding industrial applications where precise and accurate measurements are needed for a single parameter at a time. Its rugged IP66- and NEMA4-rated metal enclosure ensures reliable performance in the toughest environments.

“Not all customers require the full range of functionality offered by the state-of-the-art Indigo520 transmitter. A simpler solution with single-probe support and without compromising the benefits of modularity was required by some customers. With the Indigo510 we are answering their needs,” said Juhani Lehto, Product Manager, Industrial Measurements at Vaisala.

Attaching any Indigo-compatible measurement probe to the Indigo510 transmitter is easy and convenient. “With the Indigo510 our customers can measure humidity, dew point, moisture in oil, temperature, carbon dioxide and vaporised hydrogen peroxide with the assurance of reliability, accuracy and the strong chain of data provided by the Indigo ecosystem. The new transmitter provides the quality and performance that Vaisala is renowned for in a more affordable but equally robust package,” Lehto concluded.

The Indigo510 transmitter extends the options for data visualisation, connectivity, supply voltage and wiring compared to using a standalone probe. In addition, customers benefit from regular platform and software updates.

The Indigo family forms a modular ecosystem with interchangeable smart probes, robust transmitters and intuitive Vaisala Insight PC software. The probes can be used independently without a transmitter, or together with the Indigo500 or Indigo200 series transmitters to extend their features. The modular plug-and-play design makes the Indigo probes and transmitters easy to install, use and maintain.

The Vaisala Indigo510 Transmitter will be available globally in the fourth quarter of 2021.
