摘要： A system includes sensors for transmitting data on a low power and/or short range transmission link, and one or more coordinators in wireless communication with the sensors. The coordinators convert signals received via the low power and/or short range transmission link to a longer range transmission link. A base station is in wireless communication with the coordinators via the longer range transmission link so that data generated by the sensors is transferred to the base station via the coordinators.

摘要： A saddle clamp (20) which incorporates internal electrical bonding elements adapted to maintain electrical contact with a clamped tube structure without transferring structural load between the tube and the electrical bonding components. The saddle clamp (20) includes an inner tube contacting surface having at least one surface groove (40). At least one electrical contact element (50) extends between portions of the inner tube contacting surface. The electrical contact element includes a tube contact segment (52) disposed in opposing relation to a portion of the surface groove. The electrical contact element (50) is electrically connected to the mounting bracket (12), to transmit electrical charge from the tube, via a proximal portion (58) of the electrical contact element (50) which extends through a window opening (44) of the saddle clamp (20).
