The new remote data manager Sitrans RD500 integrates web access, alarm event handling and data capture for remote installed process instruments.
The new product of the Siemens Industry Automation Division is suitable for the management and monitoring of remote installed process instruments, including flow, level, pressure, temperature and weighing. The user is able to monitor equipment from anywhere using a standard web browser by computer, PDA or smartphone.
The compact Sitrans RD500 requires only simple configuration; no engineering or programming is required. Sitrans RD500 offers flexible I/O and communications and scalability. It accepts analogue, voltage, digital, temperature and Modbus inputs, and provides flexible communications options via Ethernet, cellular and land-line modems. The standard Compact Flash memory slot offers up to 2 Gb of memory for data storage. Datalogging uses file formats of common computer platforms, which can be accessed without special software. Sitrans RD500 offers standard data transfer options for regular reporting and alarms to remote servers, e-mail-clients – including cellphone, PDA and desktop computers – and SMS messaging.
Government regulations increasingly require industry to monitor critical applications for health, safety and environmental reasons. Cost reductions drive organisations to access their remote instrumentation for data synchronisation to optimise logistic and corporate reporting systems. For these applications Sitrans RD500’s remote monitoring, alarming and datalogging provides an economic solution.
