DigiRail I/O Modules

The DigiRail Modules are a set of small DIN Rail mounted acquisition modules that will accept a range of different inputs. Specific units can be configured to accept mA, V, mV, PT100, Thermocouple or digital pulse inputs, plus one unit provides 2 relay outputs. The unit will connect to a ModBus RTU network and allow the integration of analogue or digital signals to your network. This makes these units ideal for adding additional inputs, or relay outputs to a SCADA or PLC system. The DigiRail modules can also be added to Modbus units to allow for an expanded number of inputs. The DigiRails are supplied with DigiConfig software to allow easy configuration and reconfiguration for different inputs.

Description

The DigiRail line of smart transmitters with Modbus RTU communication interface provide a simple way for integrating analogue or digital signals to supervisory systems.They can be used on a variety of different equipment to provide a simple and easy way to expand or augment an existing system with additional channels. The most commonly connected equipment is the GRD GPRS/GSM loggers, CMC-99 display/loggers or to an HMI or DABIN control units

DigiRail transmitters are available in 3 different models, detailed below:-

DigiRail-2A – A dual channel analogue input module designed for Thermocouples, PT100, millivolt, Voltage and mA signals.  Sample rates from 5Hz to 10Hz.  Features: internal CJC for thermocouples; compensation for PT100 3-wire cables; both channels and RS485 port are fully isolated to 1000V. Range of inputs are below.

  • Thermocouples – Type J, K, T, E, N, R, S, B
  • PT100 –  -200°C to 650°C (-328°F to 1202°F)
  • millivolt – 0 to 20mV, -10 to 20mV, 0 to 50mV
  • Voltage – 0 to 5vDC, 0 to 10vDC
  • Current – 0 to 20mA, 4 to 20mA

DigiRail-4C – Four channel pulse counter input module. Features: Max frequency: 1000 Hz for signals with square wave and working cycle of 50%; Input 1 can be configured for counting signals of up to 100 kHz; Counting Capacity: 32 bits (0 to 4,294,967,295; four channels and RS485 port are fully isolated to 1000V. Options: Pulse Rate (total pulse in a given time period) or Peak Rate (retaining peak countings in a given time interval) with independant time intervals on both functions.

DigiRail-2R – Dual channel relay output module. Accurate 32 bit timing circuit allows relays to be triggered at hundredths of a second intervals. Fast 6ms response times to commands. Two SPDT Relays rated at 8A / 250Vac. Both channels and RS485 port are fully isolated to 1000V.
