Description: Input/Output Module with Power Rail
Unit Size: Each
Honeywell™ Touchpoint Pro makes gas control system design, installation, configuration and operation simple. Touchpoint Pro uses a ‘building block’ approach, providing unrivalled flexibility.Any system can be built from just four main building blocks:
• Central controller with color LCD touch screen user interface
• Plug-in Input/Output (I/O) modules
• Backplane power and communications highway
• Plug-in power suppliesThese basic components can be mounted in cabinets or racks (or a combination) and the I/O modules freely mixed and matched in any combination. From small-scale systems to large, fully integrated gas and shutdown systems, Touchpoint Pro has the flexibility to meet all gas control requirements. The building block approach employed by Touchpoint Pro delivers real value by being able to adapt to each unique system requirement.Central Controller with User InterfaceThe heart of the Touchpoint Pro is the central controller, which includes the user interface.The user interface features a full color LCD touch screen and provides engineers with an intuitive solution to system set-up and deployment. Easily accessible icons, supported by drop-down menus ensure that even the most complex of system configurations can be commissioned with efficiency. Aside from ease of use, Touchpoint Pro™ user interface also includes some valuable aspects that help engineers save time, whilst setting up and commissioning a system.
• Easily accessible system status that can be seen at a glance
• Intuitive infrastructure that features Forward/Backward/Reject functionality for simplified navigation and use
• Selectable pre-loaded field device settings, allowing the automatic population of default data
• Flexibility to inhibit parts of the system easily, helping to permit simplified and cost-effective ongoing maintenanceSensor CatalogThe central controller is loaded with a sensor catalog, which contains a complete listing of all Honeywell Analytics’ gas sensors, each with a full default configuration setting. A user can choose to configure input channel settings from the sensor catalog, resulting in a three-step configuration process – select channel ID, program channel tags and select sensor and gas. The rest of the configuration will be loaded automatically. The full configuration can be viewed afterwards, and individual parameters changed if desired.Input / Output ModuleThe Touchpoint Pro Input/Output modules can be combined up to a maximum of 16 input modules (64 channels) and 32 output modules (128 channels). Modules can be located in any Touchpoint Pro enclosure. Power distribution is via the Communication/Power Rail.
• Analog Input Module 4-20 mA
• Analogue Input Module mV-Bridge
• Digital Input Module
• Relay Output ModuleCommunication / Power Rail The Touchpoint Pro Communication/Power Rail provides direct power and network connection to the Input/Output modules, minimizing the wiring required. There is a single connection for the 24 Vdc supply and the network cables connect to the Ring Coupling module, which handles the communication between the modules and the central controller.Power SuppliesA number of power supply options are available, including 120 W, 240 W and 480 W 24 Vdc power supply units, a redundancy module which switches to an alternative supply in the case of failure and a UPS module which charges a back-up battery to be used in the event of a mains power failure.EnclosuresTouchpoint Pro offers flexibility in how the system can be housed. The Touchpoint Pro system is comprised of four basic components – plug-in Input/ Output modules, plug-in power supplies, a backplane power and communications highway and central controller/ user interface with an LCD color touch screen. The system™ modular design allows these elements to be freely mounted in a variety of configurations including cabinets and racks, delivering the freedom to create a system topology that meets specific needs.
