Turck Canada has announced a Zone 2 Ethernet gateway for the excom I/O system. All process data can thus now for the first time reach IT systems for analysis and evaluation at sufficient speed via a parallel data channel, the company says, a fast and easy way of implementing condition monitoring and predictive maintenance.
Controllers and control systems are protected from access attempts. The new GEN-3G multiprotocol device operates at high data rates in Profinet, Ethernet/IP or Modbus TCP networks without the need for manual intervention.
The integrated gateway switch enables the implementation of linear topologies which can be connected easily in the network to form a ring.
Besides the hardware redundancies for power supply units and gateways, the system also supports redundancy concepts such as S2 system redundancy to ensure maximum availability.
