Solartron Metrology introduces a new Orbit 3 based system giving you low cost and easy connections into PLCs and process control system. The SI400 gives you the opportunity to connect and power three additional sensors giving you a four channel reading. All of the modules will carry the same accuracy, repeatability and durability as a standard Orbit 3 probe. You can combine gauging probes, Orbit LT and Orbit LTH on the same stack of modules.

Stand alone unit
Integral readout
Keypad

SAMPLE APPLICATIONS:
Checking a jet engine turbine blade with two Orbit LTH lasers and two ultra feather touch probes over Modbus.
Check four corners of mobile phone glass with ultra feather touch probes via print command over RS232

PIN CONFIGURATION:
Input pins can be set Active Hi or Active Lo
Output pins can be Active Hi or Active Lo and set to NPN, PNP or Logic
DIN rail mount
Input pins are programmable – typical functions, Zero, Print, Preset

SERIAL OUTPUT OPTIONS:
The SI400 has a standard Modbus interface – RTU oe ASCII. Pins 3 and 4 can be configured as an ASCII serial interface – Pin 3 RS232TX, Pin 4 RS232RX. In this mode you can select from several different ASCII protocols including compatibility with SolartronsSI1500, SI500 and C55.
