Modbus measuring instruments for process signals

Modbus measuring instruments for analogue signal 0/2 - 10 V and/or 0/4 - 20 mA

TDE Instruments DPM72 Modbus-Messeinheit für Prozessignale

Unique, innovative, and multifunctional: the multifunctional measuring units Digalox® DPM72-MPP, -MPPV and -MPPA with Modbus RS485 interface are characterised by extensive functions and configurability. Depending on the type, the measurement modes analogue signal 0/2 to 10 V and 0/4 to 20 mA DC (MPP), 2 x 0/2 to 10 V (MPPV) and 2 x 0/4 to 20 mA DC (MPPA) are supported. The Modbus interface ensures comfortable individual configuration of the devices as well as transfer of measuring data in real time. Therefore, the DPM72 measuring instruments are versatile and suitable for a wide range of industrial applications. The multifunctional measuring devices are particularly in demand in the area of monitoring of machine and operating data and especially suitable for retrofitting, as they can be easily integrated into existing systems thanks to the RS485 Modbus protocol and are able to easily communicate with Modbus devices from other manufacturers. Additionally, they can be attached to DIN rails as well as to other backgrounds through corresponding boreholes in the housing.

Extensive adaptability via software
Using the "Digalox® Manager" configuration software, the measuring devices can be set up individually. Once set up, the DPM72 will transmit your measuring data reliably and in real time.

Switching outputs
As individually adjustable threshold values ​​are reached, two galvanically isolated alarm outputs enable the device to trigger an alarm as well as to perform switch-on or switch-off operations.

Modbus interface
The RS485 Modbus interface of the DPM72 measuring devices ensures both configuration and transmission of all measured values. The RS485 Modbus protocol corresponds to the established industrial standard, which means that the DPM72 measuring devices with Modbus interface can be universally combined with existing Modbus devices from other manufacturers. Above all, this enables older or technically obsolete machines to be modernised easily (retrofitting) without having to replace them, which can be expensive and time-consuming.
