Robust I/O system classified for shipbuilding

April 2016 System Integration & Control Systems Design

Thanks to low noise emission in compliance with EMC Class B and its mechanical robustness, the Axioline F I/O system from Phoenix Contact fulfils the stringent requirements for automation in shipbuilding. As a result, the I/O system has now obtained the approval of all major maritime safety testing associations, including, in particular, the attainment of the BSH certificate and passing the compass test. This certificate allows an I/O station to be installed only a few centimetres away from sensitive standard solenoid compass units.

The new XC variants of the I/O system also offer an extended operating temperature range from -40 to +70°C as well as varnished PCBs. They are therefore ideally suited for use in harsh engine room environments.
