RPC-80x

  • The RPC-80x is a next-generation Rugged Programmable Controller (RPC) designed for advanced signal processing and dependable performance even in the most demanding environments.

  • Its intuitive onboard programming and configurable inputs/outputs support a wide range of measurement types, including tension, torque, weight, and pressure, and its high-visibility display ensures clear readouts regardless of light, angle, or weather conditions.

  • Engineered for versatility and performance, the RPC-80x fits seamlessly into both new and retrofit projects.

 

FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

 

Electroluminescent (EL) display offers bright and clear visibility at angles up to 179°.

Heavy-duty 316 stainless steel front panel with five fully sealed, tactile buttons for superior durability to withstand harsh environments.

Onboard browser interface allows for remote measurement viewing, remote access and control, downloading internal data files, and upload/download of settings profiles. Firmware can be upgraded remotely or via USB.

Real-time data available to users and other Rugged Controls devices via RS-485, RS-232, and (1) ethernet port. Data logging options for USB and PC applications.

Full programmability via English language menus. Configurable measurements, alarms, and any other standard setting. No custom firmware required. 4 key functions configurable from menu system provide ultimate flexibility for operators.

Multiple sensor input channels (rotational, analog, and digital) support high-level and strain gauge analog inputs and a variety of serial or ethernet enabled sensors. Configurable counter input channels are available for quadrature, pulse, or sinusoidal signals.

Configure up to three run-time screens and easily toggle between screens with front panel button.

Employ mathematical functions to measurements for streamlined calculation of sum, average, and peak data.

Timestamp measurements and alarms to ensure reporting accurate and automated reporting.

(2) Relays and analog outputs for safety, control, and third-party integration.

(2) Digital inputs with functions that are easily menu selectable.

Optional data logging and report generating software available.

RPC-LINK protocol allows connection between RPC-90x-C or 80x products for seamless data exchange.

Network configurable data ports. High speed data capture up to 1000 Hz.
