Convert voltage, current and temperature measurements into values that a programmable logic controller can read using this Siemens data acquisition device. It connects a PLC from Siemens' SIMATIC S7-300 range to your Ethernet, so you can configure efficient industrial network systems. The device offers network expansion possibilities as it reduces the number of tasks your central processing unit has to handle. Its two interfaces make the exchange of critical data easier. Data acquisition devices like this one are used in various industries for research and development, process control and the testing and management of systems.

• Fast data transfer rate of up to 100Mbps for reliability
• IP20 (ingress protection) rated enclosure is protected against objects larger than 12mm and human touch
• Wide operating temperature range of 0°C to +60°C (horizontal installation) and 0°C to +40°C (vertical installation) makes it suitable to use in demanding settings

Data acquisition is the process of collecting and monitoring electrical or physical signals and then turning them into digital readings. This allows data to be stored, analysed and displayed efficiently.
