It is an upgrade to Ayrstone's successful IndoorAP, with several important improvements. First, the new IndoorHub uses 2×2 MIMO to provide higher bandwidth and better indoor coverage. Second, the IndoorHub uses meshing, so the first IndoorHub can be connected to an ethernet port and additional IndoorHubs can be spread through a large building, requiring only power. Finally, the new IndoorHub comes with its own power supply and does not depend on another device for power. The IndoorHub allows anyone to easily fill a large building with wi-fi without having to run cables, even if there are no other Ayrstone products. All Ayrstone products are designed to be simple enough for any rural homeowner or businessperson to install; no networking experience is needed. Contact Ayrstone at www.ayrstone.com. Kason Flo-Thru Sanitary Screener The new low-profile Flo-Thru sanitary screener from Kason Corporation scalps oversize particles and foreign matter from dry bulk materials and solids-laden slurries at high rates in low-headroom areas. Mounted on suspension springs, the Flo- Thru design allows vertical alignment of the top inlet and bottom outlet, allowing on-size material to rapidly descend through the screen in a straight-through path at high rates into downstream equipment or receiving vessels. Oversize material is ejected through a spout at the periphery of the screen. The unit is available in diameters from 18 to 100 inches, with interchangeable screens that allow sifting of on-size materials as fine as 38 microns (400 mesh). Quick-release clamps allow rapid removal of screens and tool-free disassembly of frames for thorough washdown of components (including the motors), as well as rapid interior access for inspection and screen changes. Contact Kason Corporation at (973) 467-8140 or www.kason.com. Mait Pivot Tracker from T-L T-L Irrigation now offers the Mait Pivot Tracker product. This telemetry system for monitoring pivot and linear operations utilizes radios for communication to a central PC base station, eliminating the need for annual cell phone subscriptions for each field device. This system allows growers to automate and monitor their T-L pivots, making it much easier to maintain and multitask. The Mait Pivot Tracker has a display that will provide information on operating status (idle or running), location of the pivot and water pressure. The purpose of the Mait Pivot Tracker is to capitalize on improved water delivery systems. It is also used to improve water-use efficiency and reduce labor. It requires no annual subscription fees and no cellular coverage. For more information, visit www.tlirr.com or www.mait.com.au.
