The Axiomatic 20 or 4 Thermocouple (TC) and 8 RTD Scanners send engine low or high temperature warnings, detect high temperature shutdowns and sense TC or RTD open circuit conditions. The module communicates over CANopen® to the control system of an industrial genset. Axiomatic announces the release of three new CANopen® engine management controls, part numbers AXTC20CO, AXTC4CO and AXRTD8CO respectively. These controllers are part of a growing line of low cost and rugged distributed I/O controls for CAN networks and packaged for harsh operating environments.
20 Thermocouple Scanner, CANopen®
(8 RTD model is available with the same packaging.)
Features:
Model AXTC20CO: 20 Thermocouple Inputs, CANopen®
- Accepts 20 type J, K, B, E, N, R, S or T thermocouples (8 RTD input model available)
- Temperature is measured in ºC, with a 0.001ºC resolution.
- The scanner will send temperatures with +/- 1ºC accuracy.
- Cold junction compensation is provided as an enable/disable function.
- It flags low temperature warnings, high temperature warnings, or high temperature shutdowns to the engine control system.
- Average temperature of all the active channels, or all channels from a block of 10, can be broadcasted to the CAN network.
- It detects open circuits on the sensor wires.
- 12V, 24V or 48VDC input power (nominal).
- All channels are fully isolated from each other, the CAN lines, and from the power supply.
- 1 CANopen® port (SAE J1939 available)
- 1 RS-232 port
- Rugged IP65 packaging and connectors
- Configurable with commercially available CANopen® tools (not supplied)
4 Thermocouple Scanner, CANopen®
Features:
Model AXTC4CO: 4 Thermocouple Inputs, CANopen®
- Accepts 4 Type J, K or T thermocouples
- Temperature is measured in ºC, with a 0.001ºC resolution.
- The scanner will send temperatures with +/- 1ºC accuracy.
- Cold junction compensation is provided as an enable/disable function.
- It flags low temperature warnings, high temperature warnings, or high temperature shutdowns to the engine control system.
- The average temperature of all the active channels, or all channels from a block of 2, can be broadcasted to the CAN network.
- It detects open circuits on the sensor wires.
- 12V, 24V, 48V or 60VDC input power (nominal)
- All channels are fully isolated from each other, the CAN lines, and from the power supply.
- 1 CANopen® port (SAE J1939 available)
- 1 RS-232 port
- Rugged IP67 packaging and connectors
- Configurable with commercially available CANopen® tools (not supplied)
Applications (Both P/Ns):
• Distributed controls for industrial power gen sets and backup power engine control systems
