WAGO announced new additions to its XTR line of harsh environment (-40 °C to 70 °C extreme temperature and 5g vibration resistance) I/O, providing added functionality, delivering Performance Class PLCs, Smart Grid technology and energy monitoring.
The PFC200 controller is now available in several new harsh environment XTR variants. Featuring modules with varying communication interfaces: Ethernet, RS-232/RS-485, CAN, CANopen, and PROFIBUS-DP-Slave interfaces; as well as DNP3, IEC 61850 and IEC 60870 protocols supporting use as a Smart Grid controller.
New 3-Phase Power Measurement Modules expand the application range of the XTR with modules to help reduce energy consumption by monitoring total power consumption, power factors, harmonics and more.
Like all modules in the XTR Series the new variants combine the benefits of the WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM with the ability to operate in the harshest environmental conditions making the XTR ideal for oil and gas, renewable energy, substations, shipbuilding and railway applications.
