Dpstar Group is the largest manufacturer of thermocouples based in Malaysia. We design and manufacture a complete line of high-quality standard and custom temperature sensors including thermocouples, RTD’s, thermowells, and float switches as well as a wide selection of temperature accessories. Through our engineering capabilities and 30 years of experience, our trademark brand Maltec-T is the only CE-certified manufacturer for thermocouples in Malaysia. With extensive experience, unique technology, and hard commitment, we become one of the best quality suppliers in the temperature sensors field. We offer a full range of design services to provide you with the benefit of our knowledge and experience.

The Maltec Wireless Modbus Gateway MTWG1 is specifically designed to meet the most rigorous requirements of operation in the industrial process environments. Due to its reduced dimensions, it can be easily installed in junction boxes or in the control cabinet.

It receives the information transmitted by the Universal Wireless Temperature Transmitter MTW1 and makes it available on the RS485 interface with Modbus protocol. Additionally, the first 8 addressed wireless transmitters can be read through the 4 to 40mA analog outputs.
