As the latest in the vendor’s EtherStax line of rugged, high-density Ethernet I/O blocks, the ES2151 and ES2152 feature 16 DC current inputs, 16 voltage inputs, and either 16 current or voltage output signals, respectively, to interface sensors and actuators to an Ethernet control network.
Modbus TCP/IP and UDP/IP protocol communication, as well as
peer-to-peer messaging are supported. A DB25 input port connects a rack
of 7B or 8B signal conditioning modules to monitor a variety of
sensors, including temperature, frequency, and load cells. ES2152
models also have a DB25 output port to control 7B/8B analog output
modules. Fast, high-resolution 16-bit A/D and D/A scanning updates all
channels in less than 10mS. Units are available in a variety of
configurations with prices starting at $1,950.Acromag Inc.www.acromag.com248.295.0880
