The MEDACS is a totally new signal
conditioner and consists of a family of DIN rail modules, each one
having a high degree of functionality and configurability via a RS485
MODBUS serial communications interface. They accept all common signals
and produce an isolated (4 to 20) mA re-transmission signal, a single
changeover trip relay, twin normally open relays or various
combinations.
For high density systems, dual
channel versions are available or for systems that require more local
input, single channel versions with an in-built keypad and digital
display are available where functions can be accessed via the front
panel keys.
Each unit comes complete with a RS485
serial communications port which enables the devices to be integrated
into a complete process control system. Unit wiring is simplified and
speeded up by using the integral 'bus jumper' system provided with each
unit which removes the need for complicated and expensive back plane
wiring as it connects comms and power to each device.
The
functionality is further enhanced by our Transfer Function Module
Library (TFML) software option which enables MEDACS to perform maths
functions between inputs and outputs. These can be PID Control, tank
linearisation curves, signal accumulators, max and min data logging
etc. All the TFML’s published on our web site can be downloaded free of charge. Alternatively, for a small fee, we can write custom functions to match your specific application.
