Press Release Summary:
Modules in I/O Pak(TM) family include C, K and DL Series. C-Series are 100Hz, 16-bit analog measurement devices with Modbus-RTU, Profibus-DP and simple ASCII communications options. K-Series are 1000Hz, 19-bit analog measurement devices that can be configured as Modbus or ASCII protocol slaves. DL-Series data logging modules with Modbus, Profibus and ASCII serial interface can log data from on-board I/O channels or other C-Series modules.
Original Press Release:
Action Instruments Announces the New I/O Pak Line of Intelligent Distributed I/O and Data Logging Modules for Industrial Data Acquisition and Control
SAN DIEGO, CA - Action Instruments announces immediate availability of the I/O Pak(TM) family of intelligent, distributed I/O modules for industrial data acquisition and control. The I/O Pak family consists of three different series of products. The I/O Pak C-Series is broadly classified as 100Hz, 16-bit analog measurement devices with Modbus-RTU, Profibus-DP and simple ASCII communications options. They are ideal solutions for distributed data acquisition systems, SCADA projects and standalone applications that go beyond the capabilities of Action's signal conditioners and alarm modules.
The second member of the family is the I/O Pak K-Series. These modules are classified as 1000Hz, 19-bit analog measurement devices. The modules themselves can be configured as Modbus or ASCII protocol slaves. In conjunction with the optional EGATE-01 Data Concentrator, throughputs of 100,000 samples per second can be achieved on a 12 Mbps Profibus network. The EGATE-01 will also provide web server functions as well as accepting and executing standard IEC 61131 "soft PLC" control programs.
The last member of the family is the I/O Pak DL-Series of intelligent data logging modules with Modbus, Profibus and ASCII serial interface. These full-featured modules can log data from their on-board I/O channels as well as from other C-Series modules.
The DL-Series consists of three different data logging modules, the DL100-U, DL-101-U and the DL104-T. The first two support eight or six universal analog inputs respectively while the DL104 is dedicated to four Pt-100 RTD inputs. They all support modems, pager messaging on alarms, scheduled and event driven data uploading and a whole lot more.
Action Instruments is an Invensys Company and a leading manufacturer and supplier of industrial instrumentation for process control and factory automation.
