Acromag’s New 6-Channel Optocoupler and Interposing Relay Modules Monitor/Control High-Voltage Field Devices











Acromag’s new BusWorks® XT Series multi-channel optocoupler and interposing relay modules


Wixom, Michigan (PRWEB) May 08, 2013

Acromag’s new BusWorks® XT Series multi-channel optocoupler and interposing relay modules connect discrete field devices to measurement & control system I/O modules. The XTA-120V-6 optocoupler modules have six individually isolated 120V AC/DC digital (discrete) inputs to sense on/off levels and provide 5-32V DC logic outputs to a fieldbus input module or a controller. The XTA-MRNO-6 interposing relay module receives 4-32V DC logic-level signals from an output module or controller to switch six mechanical relay outputs. These two high-voltage relay interface modules offer a high-density, cost-effective solution to safely monitor or control inductive and other high-power loads (motors, valves, solenoids, etc.) with control system input/output modules that only support low-level DC signals. Pricing starts at $ 150 for the mechanical relay output module and $ 180 for the optocoupler input module.

“These multi-channel discrete contact sensor and relay output modules offer a safe, isolated interface between high-energy field devices and sensitive control system I/O modules,” explained Don Lupo, sales and marketing director of Acromag’s process products group. “By adding optocouplers and relays, you can use PLC, DCS, or remote I/O modules with 5-24V logic circuits to operate 120V AC/DC contactors.”

The XTA-120V-6 six-channel optocoupler is intended for use with control system digital input modules to monitor contact closures or mains power supply on/off voltage levels. Each channel senses the presence or absence of high-level voltage to determine the status of proximity switches, limit switches, toggle switches, push buttons, contacts, and other devices. Opto-isolators control a mosfet switch for a TTL-level output to safely interface the status of the monitored device.

The XTA-MRNO-6 six-channel mechanical relay is used with digital output modules to drive high energy loads. This unit serves as an interim digital interface to switch high voltage devices at high currents based on digital DC logic inputs. Each output has normally open Form A mechanical relay contacts (SPST-NO). LEDs on each channel indicate the output state for convenient troubleshooting.

Both modules can drive audible or visual alarms. Common uses involve operation of stack lights, bells, whistles, lights, and horns. While the XTA-MRNO-6 is intended for switching AC/DC inductive loads at high currents, the XTA-120V-6 is designed to drive low-current devices such as solid-state relays, LEDs, relay coils, solenoids, and incandescent lamps.

An innovative housing design is only 22.5mm wide and features removable front-facing terminal blocks for easier wiring. All units run off a 12- 32V DC power source at the terminals or through an integrated power connector bussed along the DIN rail that can provide primary or redundant power. Fail-safe operation is supported. Suitable for use in harsh environments, modules operate from -40 to 85°C with 1500V AC isolation and surge/transient protection. They can also withstand 25g shock and 4g vibration. CE and UL/cUL Class 1 Division 2 Zone 2 hazardous location approvals are pending.

Brazil Market: Orthopedic Trauma Devices & Wound, Tissue Management Analysis in New Market Research Reports at ReportsnReports.com










Dallas, Texas (PRWEB) February 03, 2013

In 2011, the total Brazilian market for orthopedic trauma devices was valued at over $ 460 million. This market includes plates and screws, intramedullary nails, hip intramedullary nails, compression hip screws, cannulated screws and external fixation devices. All of these segments experienced positive growth in 2011, as the aging population and the high number of motor vehicle accidents in Brazil continued to drive demand. The overall market is largely divided in terms of pricing set by the public SUS system and prices influenced by private insurance companies. The ASPs of products purchased through public healthcare are stable; however, there has been a gradual decline in ASPs in the private healthcare sector. Overall, the strong positive growth in all segments will allow the entire market to grow rapidly over the 2011–2018 forecast period.
