Compact Multi-Channel Meter / Controllers from Metrix
08 April 2010
Metrix Electronics have launched their Compact Multi-Channel Meter / Controllers.
The new MultiCon CMC-99 series are compact 96x96mm panel mounting multi-channel meter / controllers with up to 48 analogue inputs and 16 relay / SSR outputs. Having a modular design enables 0-20mA current, 0-10V voltage, RTD or thermocouple temperature or ‘universal’ type inputs. The outputs can be relays, SSRs or 0/4-20mA current types. These controllers feature a backlit colour TFT display with touch screen menu navigation. They can be configured to control multiple outputs from one input, or have outputs from logical combination of several inputs. External sensors and actuators can be directly connected.
A 24V/200mA external sensor power supply is available. Inputs, or groups of inputs, can be displayed in numeric, bargraph or graphical format. Each input can be named, scaled and captioned by the installer. All versions have an RS-485 (Modbus RTU) serial port for standard communications, plus two USB ports: Host for a keyboard or mouse and Device for PC communications.
Enhanced communications with further serial, USB or Ethernet ports are options. The optional SimCorder software allows visualisation, archiving and printing of recorded measurements.
