The BL Compact system is a modular I/O solution for collecting a variety of signals in a single, rugged node on a network.
Rather than routing all signals through a control cabinet, this device
makes it possible to obtain analog, digital, thermocouple, RTD, serial,
RFID or a mixture of signal types in a compact, on-the-machine device
over DeviceNet, CANopen and Profibus-DP. Up to two signal types can be
combined in any combination in the system, including RFID and analog,
digital and serial. The system may be customized to suit a user’s
needs, so that devices may be added to an existing network and signals
may be gathered on a machine without an enclosure. This drop-in
solution can be used to connect up to 16 devices, eliminating the time
it takes to run wires for each device back to the control cabinet and
the potential for wiring errors. Four-, eight- and 16-port versions are
available in IP67 and IP69 rated packages.Turck Inc.www.turck.us800.544.7769
