Honeywell Sensing and Control WOI Limitless Wireless Operator Interface


The new Limitless™ Wireless Operator Interface (WOI) Series expands Honeywell’s Limitless™ wireless portfolio by providing a packaged pushbutton solution for manufacturers and OEMs. This Series adds a human interface device to the product-driven interfaces of Limitless™ switches and receivers. With both momentary and maintained contact options, the Limitless™ Series now offers wireless control from both person and position.

The WOI is a controller designed to wirelessly turn equipment on and off, open or close gates/doors, or provide notification to remote locations. It is especially beneficial for remote monitoring applications where wiring or wire maintenance is not physically possible or economically feasible. Combining this greater flexibility with proven harsh-duty packaging can result in increased efficiencies and ease in establishing a remote operator for use in a variety of applications.

Potential industrial applications include CNC action, conveyors, door/gate action, lifts, material handling, motor drives, presses, pumps, quality control buttons, specialty machines, Stop/Start machinery, Stop/Start production, and valve action. Potential transportation applications include agricultural equipment and movable machinery.

Key Wireless Advantages

  • No wiring or connectors to the switches required, drastically reducing installation time and costs 
  • Less wire maintenance and repair, resulting in a more reliable alternative with more uptime compared to traditional wired solutions
  • Ideal for remote monitoring applications where wiring is not physically possible or economically feasible
  • Ideal for retrofitting existing equipment and systems to minimize installation costs and disruption
