Channel-Isolated Discrete I/O

By Design World Staff | June 11, 2007

EtherStax line of rugged, high-density Ethernet I/O blocks for distributed I/O and SCADA applications now has channel-isolated discrete I/O. ES2116, ES2117, and ES2118 models process 32 discrete inputs and 16 outputs with a Modbus TCP/UDP/IP interface to a host controller. i2o technology enables peer-to-peer communication between I/O units. Dual network ports support 10/100Base-TX copper and 100Base-FX fiber-optic connections with a redundant communication path for critical applications. Dual DC power terminals enable use of redundant power sources. An embedded web page provides configuration menus accessible with any web browser to eliminate programming.

Three models, each with 32 input channels and 16 output channels, support a variety of I/O ranges. The ES2116 has a 97-132 Vac input range, the ES2117 accepts 20-60 Vdc, and the ES2118 takes 105-135 Vdc signals. All models provide 5 A @ 250 Vac or 30 Vdc SPST outputs. Each unit also has an alarm with a 5 A @ 250 Vac or 24 Vdc SPST. Continuous 150 Vac channel-to-channel isolation safely separates each I/O signal from the others, from power, and from the network.
