Precise Data AcquisitionMoxas ioPAC 8500 RTUs offer up to 40 kHz-level analog input sampling rate, giving engineers the analog data precision they need to correctly analyze events. In addition, the analog input pre-recording function allows the ioPAC 8500 RTUs to continuously record analog input data before an event trigger point for improved data completeness. | |
Sustainable System ReliabilityThe ioPAC 8500 RTU controllers are compliant with EN 50155, EN50121-3-2 and EN 50121-4 railway standards, which require products to withstａnd high levels of vibration, and provide surge and ESD protection for the power and communication ports. They also support a wide operating temperature range of -40 to 75°C. | |
Easy Data AcquisitionMoxas ioPAC 8500 RTU controllers come with Moxas patented Active OPC server and DA-Center software. Active OPC server adds a non-polling architecture to the standard OPC protocol, giving users the advantage of push-based communication from Moxas controllers to the SCADA systems. DA-Center, on the other hand, provides a standard OPC interface that interacts with Moxa Active OPC Server for real-time data collection. | |
Easy to DeployMoxas ioPAC 8500 modular RTU controllers support a versatile collection of I/O modules. The compact size and modular design make this ioPAC 8500 ideal for cabinets with limited space, and all of the I/O modules are hot-swappable to allow users to replace the modules without shutting down the system. |
