Electronic requirement


    Market requirements
  • High uptime of machines and installations and reduced downtime costs.

  • Extensive and simple system diagnosis for fast error location by the operators.

  • Safe and simple handling via displays and other input devices.

  • Simple handling, mounting and servicing of components through a modular design concept.

  • Reduced wiring and decentralised control. Rugged and versatile input/output modules.

  • Networking via CAN bus with CANopen protocol.

  • Documentation of operating and system status by means of operational data logging.
  • Real-time clock, statistical and protocol functions which facilitate the generation of informative system reports.


    Electronic requirements
  • The ability to withstand extreme shock and vibrational stresses.
  • Operation at extremes of temperature, both high and low.
  • Use in field applications during exposure to dirt, water and humidity.
  • Insensitive to supply voltage fluctuations caused by the battery/generator systems.
  • The electrical system must be insensitive to high levels of conducted and radiated interference.
