Acromag XT1230 and XT1240 analog input ethernet modules

Saturday, 15 March, 2014 | Supplied by: Metromatics Pty Ltd


Acromag has released the XT1230 and XT1240 in the BusWorks XT series of ethernet I/O modules. The models provide a 16-channel interface for single-ended analog current or voltage input signals with EtherNet/IP, Modbus/TCP, Profinet or i2o peer-to-peer communication.

The space-saving, inch-wide design features dual ethernet ports, removable front-facing terminal blocks and DIN rail power bus support. Its convenient USB-to-PC connection and free Windows software makes configuration quick and uncomplicated. Suitable for use in harsh environments, all modules operate from -40 to 70°C with noise immunity, surge protection and CE compliance.

The XT1230 accepts current inputs of 0-11, 0-20, 4-20 mA or ±20 mA, or 0-20 A AC with optional toroid sensor. The XT1240 accommodates ±5, ±10, 0-5, or 0-10 V input ranges. All units run off a 12-32 VDC power source (2.8 W) at the terminals or through an integrated power connector bussed along the DIN rail that can provide primary or redundant power.

Each model offers a choice of EtherNet/IP, Profinet or Modbus TCP/IP protocols with peer-to-peer i2o communication support. Dual 10/100 Ethernet ports allow daisy-chaining units together to simplify cabling and minimise the network switches required, reducing overall system costs.

BusWorks XT units employ Innovasic Priority Channel technology, which makes certain that critical data is received on time regardless of traffic on the network. Priority Channel provides determinism at the device for consistent transmission of time-sensitive data with any of the Ethernet protocols.

High input impedance reduces loading on voltage loops with XT1240 models, while the XT1230 models’ low input impedance reduces loading on current loops. The configuration software enables use of sample averaging on a per-channel basis. For reliability, operation and diagnostic LEDs offer visual status updates and aid in troubleshooting.
