The KONGSBERG RMP420S is a remote multipurpose input/output module designed for industrial automation and marine applications. Here is the detailed information:
- Manufacturer: KONGSBERG
- Model Number: RMP420S
- Product Type: Remote Multipurpose Input/Output Module
- Power Supply: Input supply voltage of 24 VDC, with a range of 18 - 31.2 VDC. Typical power consumption is 10 W. Power connectors are screw terminals, and the recommended cable cross - section is 2.5 mm².
- I/O Channels: Has 32 software - configurable multipurpose solid - state channels. These channels can be configured as analog input (AI), analog output (AO), digital input (DI), or digital output (DO). It also supports 2 - or 3 - wire Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) inputs, and 2 channels can be configured as pulse/frequency/encoder input.
- Communication Interfaces: The module is equipped with dual remote I/O process bus interfaces (RBUS A and RBUS B) for redundant communication with the host computer. The communication ports are galvanically insulated from other module circuitry.
- Physical Characteristics: Dimensions are approximately 42.2 cm x 12.4 cm x 12.6 cm (Length x Width x Thickness), and it weighs about 1.1 kg. It is usually mounted in a control cabinet, and the specific mounting method is not clearly stated in the available information.
- Environmental Conditions: The operating temperature range is - 15°C to + 70°C, and the humidity range is up to 98% RH during operation. The storage temperature range is - 25°C to + 70°C, with a storage humidity of up to 98% RH.
- Modular and Flexible Design: Allows for easy configuration according to different application requirements. With 32 configurable channels, it can adapt to a variety of input and output needs.
- Reliability: Built to withstand harsh industrial environments. It has short - circuit protected I/O loop power output and loop monitoring on each channel, which can ensure stable operation and prevent damage caused by abnormal conditions.
- Redundant Communication: The dual - bus communication interface design provides redundant communication, improving the reliability of data transmission between the module and the host control system.
- Marine Automation: Suitable for ship - board integrated control systems, such as monitoring and controlling various ship - side equipment, including pumps, valves, and other machinery.
- Industrial Process Control: Can be used in onshore industrial processes, such as in the energy, chemical, and manufacturing industries, for data acquisition and control of production lines.
- Alarm and Monitoring Systems: It can be used in alarm monitoring systems, collecting data from various sensors and transmitting it to the central control system, and triggering alarms when abnormal conditions occur.
