Why Install a Real Time Location System?

RTLS technology is designed to help you determine the location of your people and assets, adding a critical layer to your digital and connected site. Hazardous or harsh environments should not be any different. We have spent over 15 years installing RTLS solutions into some of the world’s most hazardous and harsh environments for a wide variety of use cases. Learn more about the different aspects to our RTLS solutions below.


Extronics RTLS products are ATEX, IECEx and MET approved.

ATEX, IECEx, MET

All our RTLS products are intrinsically safe with options covering ATEX, IECEx and MET approvals across the range. Our products have been designed and tested for use in the harshest industrial environments, with robust enclosures rated to IP65, IP67 and IP68, and an operating temperature range of -20°C to +55°C.

Extronics RTLS Solution Utilise the Latest Technology 

Location Technology Sources

Wi-Fi ……………………………………

Wi-Fi networks have been the go-to standard for industrial RTLS applications for many years and can provide accurate location of personnel and assets. 

Global Position System (GPS)

In outdoor environments, GPS is an ideal location technology. Wireless in these areas is only used to provide data backhaul to the location engine.

Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)

BLE provides a low cost alternative for asset and personnel tracking. BLE anchors are battery powered and low cost to install. Anchors trilaterate the tag location to achieve high levels of accuracy.

Connectivity Technologies

Wi-Fi……………………………………..

Not only a mainstay for location tracking purposes, Wi-Fi is a proven technology for IoT device connectivity applications across most industries.

LoRaWAN (Long Range)

LoRaWAN is a proprietary low-power wide-area network modulation technique. It has seen wide use in IIoT applications for long-range communications links.

Cellular…………………………………

Cellular networks, such as private LTE, are gaining ground in the process industries and require less infrastructure than Wi-Fi to provide the same level of connectivity.

Extronics Wirepas RTLS

Wirepas Tracking

Extronics Wirepas solution is a low-cost end-to-end location tracking system for both personnel and assets. The battery-powered iTAG XB40 anchors form a self-healing mesh network for communication. iTAG XB asset and personnel tags then send the tags data via the mesh to a Bluetooth gateway and onto the Extronics Location Engine.
