Insights

The new Long-Range Chipset from BASE Engineering represents an incremental technological improvement in industrial wireless communications, particularly noteworthy for its enhanced range capabilities exceeding 1,000 feet and improved reliability in challenging industrial environments. This advancement primarily addresses operational efficiency in industrial settings where reliable wireless control is critical.

From a market perspective, while this product enhancement strengthens Dover's position in the industrial automation sector, it's unlikely to materially impact Dover's financial performance given that BASE Engineering is just one component of OPW's Fluid Transfer Solutions business unit, which itself is only a portion of Dover's diverse portfolio. The innovation mainly serves to maintain competitive positioning rather than create significant new market opportunities.

In simple terms: Think of this as upgrading from a regular TV remote to a more powerful one that works through walls and at longer distances. While it's useful and keeps customers happy, it's not a game-changing innovation that would dramatically boost sales or stock value.

DOWNERS GROVE, Ill., Jan. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- BASE Engineering, Inc., part of OPW's Fluid Transfer Solutions business unit and Dover (NYSE: DOV), today announced the launch of its new Long-Range Chipset. This new wireless chipset option has been designed to increase range, reliability and installation flexibility beginning with the BASE Engineering portfolio of Ranger and ProControl handheld communication devices.

The Long-Range Chipset features the capability to exceed 1,000 feet (305 meters) of range for installations with external antennas. One of the key benefits of the Long-Range Chipset is the increased reliability of communication in worksite environments where propane and refined fueling equipment, construction equipment, cement and vacuum trucks, cranes, cargo ships, and manufacturing facilities are present. Additionally, in many applications, the use of external antennas is not required resulting in a cleaner, faster installation.

"The Long-Range Chipset represents a continued commitment to our existing and future BASE Engineering ecosystem," said Toby Bourque, Vice President of BASE Engineering. "Working with our partners and end-users, we've designed this new chipset to not only deliver a stronger communication range but also provide a more reliable connection in challenging industrial operating environments. Our Long-Range Chipset also offers expanded flexibility and simplicity during installation while removing the external-antenna requirement in many installations, which is something our partners and customers have been requesting."
