SCADA RTD interface

Semaphore has introduced a resistance temperature detector (RTD) interface for its T-Box line of SCADA system products. The MS-6RTD interface module is compatible with a T-Box MS Modular System and accommodates a broad range of 2- and 3-wire RTD temperature sensors.

Direct connection of RTDs to T-Box MS simplifies installation and is particularly cost effective for processes using multiple temperature measurements. Used with one or more MS-6RTD modules, T-Box MS is especially suitable to applications in energy management, infrastructure management, power generation and utilities.

In addition to process control, T-Box performs alarm management and data logging and uses push technology to keep multiple recipients fully informed on the status of all assets. Push messaging includes IP forwarding, email with attached files and SMS text. Via an integral web server, T-Box serves live and historical information on the internet or an intranet.

Semaphore’s T-Box RTU products are suitable for a broad range of monitoring and control applications in the broadcast, infrastructure management, oil and gas, power, transportation and water treatment and distribution industries.
