Detailed description

Designed for marine environments, the Veratron LinkUp resistive gateway (reference B00042201) is an interface that converts resistive sensor signals into NMEA 2000® data. This device allows essential information such as fluid levels, temperatures, or pressures to be integrated directly into an NMEA 2000 network, making it easy to display on compatible screens.

Features and configuration

The gateway is configurable via the AirWave-based Airlink interface or via NMEA 2000 using the Veratron configuration tool. Its design enables contactless configuration using a smartphone, eliminating the need for additional hardware. The LinkUp gateway is powered directly by the NMEA 2000 network, reducing the necessary wiring.

Integration and technical specifications

Approved for installation in engine compartments according to ISO 8846:1990, the Veratron LinkUp resistive gateway ensures reliability in these environments. Sensor-side connection is made via a 2-pin AMP SuperSeal connector, compatible with Veratron level sensors for a plug-and-play installation. Its specifications include:

Operating voltage: 6 – 16.5 V
Protection class: IP X9/K
Nominal voltage: 12 V / 24 V
Power consumption: ≤ 15 mA (normal mode), ≤ 120 μA (sleep mode)
Output signal: NMEA 2000®
Operating temperature: -40 °C to 80 °C
Flammability: compliant with UL94
Compliance: CE, Reach, RoHS
Housing material: PC-FR

Compatibility and applications

The gateway supports various NMEA 2000 PGNs, including 127245 (rudder), 127505 (fluid level), 127488 and 127489 (engine parameters), as well as 130576 (flap status). It is compatible with configurations for fuel levels, fresh and waste water, coolant and oil temperatures, oil and boost pressures, rudder angles, and trim positions.

This gateway complements VMH/OceanLink systems when specific measurements need to be relayed or when built-in inputs are already in use. It is suitable for resistive level, temperature, or pressure sensors depending on the required configuration. It is designed for isolated resistive sensors to be integrated into an NMEA 2000 network and should not be considered a complete housing for a twin-engine architecture.

Expert opinion

« Resistive bridge for versatile NMEA 2000 integration »

The Veratron LinkUp resistive bridge is a strategic component for integrating existing analog sensors into a modern NMEA 2000 network. Its value lies in its ability to "digitize" critical data (levels, temperatures, pressures) from standard resistive sensors, often found in older or specialized installations, without requiring costly replacement of the sensors themselves.

Installation is simplified by its direct power supply via the NMEA 2000 bus and its AMP SuperSeal connector for the sensor side. Wireless configuration via smartphone is a major advantage for installers, allowing precise adjustment of sensor curves and alarm thresholds directly on-site, even in constrained environments. Its ISO 8846:1990 approval for engine compartments confirms its robustness and safety in harsh conditions.

It is crucial to correctly identify the need: this bridge is ideal for transmitting one or a few isolated measurements. It does not replace a full engine bridge like the EMU-1 or the integrated inputs of complex multifunction displays for twin-engine setups or systems requiring multiple simultaneous inputs. Its use is relevant for adding missing data to the network or for relaying specific measurements not supported by other interfaces.
