Distributed IOs

With help of our Distributed I/Os we are flexible to extend our measure and control network. Distributed input/output systems generally send control signals and read sensor measurements over a communication network. The network links the central Q.reader controller to several nodes located around the power plant.

z.bloxx 406 specifications

Effective PV Monitoring requires constant, solid and traceable PV Plant monitoring data in order to determine actual performance and fulfill owner/investor expectations.

Operators are interested to identify errors and losses in a reliable way to trigger appropriate actions for maximizing energy harvest during the total system lifetime.

With the monitoring and control of digital inputs and outputs operators are able to see e.g UPS state, CB state, … and also control functions are easy to implement by using the relay outputs.

The z.bloxx communication uses industry standard Modbus protocols for easy and fast integration and reliable data exchange with the data logger.

z.bloxx 406 key features

  • 6 Digital Inputs
  • 1 Digital Counter Input (S0) up to 1kHz
  • 4 Relay Outputs
  • RS485 fieldbus interface up to 115,2 kbps: Modbus-RTU, (optional OEM protocols)
  • Connectivity Data logger (e. g. Q.reader) and www.gantner-webportal.com
  • for worldwide access or other 3rd party applications
  • Electromagnetic Compatibility according to EN 61000-4 and EN 55011
  • Power Supply 18 .. 36 VDC
  • DIN rail or wall mounting according to DIN 50022
