Ringline System (non I.S)

Ringline System (non I.S)

Features

  • Supports up to 96 dual-channel safety transmitters
  • Over 192 monitoring channels for digital and analog field devices
  • Functionally safe operation - CAT3, PLd, SIL2
  • System-wide diagnostics including field device status, current draw, and fault history
  • Real-time status display with local and remote visibility
  • Ethernet/IP and Modbus RTU communications
  • 12 km system length over a simple two-wire backbone
  • Supports multiple failsafe functions on the same two wires (e.g. remote isolation and emergency stopping with redundant processors and outputs)
  • No repeaters or boosters needed in any configuration

Applications

1 Conveyor / Machinery Distributed Emergency Stopping

Ringline can be used on any machine or conveyor that requires a distributed network of emergency stop switches or devices to be interlocked to a control system in a failsafe manner.

Any Ringline transmitters that are not allocated to the safety function can be used to provide blocked chute, belt tracking, bearing monitoring or any other remote PLC input requirements (analogue and digital).

2 Condition / Environmental Monitoring

Signals such as temperature, pressure, flow, gas levels etc can be gathered centrally from a wide area (12km radius) and/or can be shared with any number of PLCs over the same area. Available monitoring includes line powered temperature transmitters and 0-20mA (or 0-2V) signal transmitters. The 0-20mA transmitters can interface to other powered transducers. Each analogue signal consumes only 1 Ringline channel out of 192.
