TC-IO/RCP
Titan I/O Module for RCP
The Titan I/O (Input/Output) Module for RCP (Relay Control Panels)
consists of a Titan I/O Board (TTN-IO) connected to a standard I/O
Backplane (TTN-IOBP) and a mounting plate (TTN-IOMOD/MP-3) to support
connected Output Relay Boards and for mounting into Argus panel
enclosures. Titan I/O Modules are used to connect sensor instrumentation to
the Argus control system and for producing the output control signals to
operate controlled equipment. www.arguscontrols.com
Applications
Titan I/O modules can be located remotely, close to the connected sensors
and controlled equipment. They are connected to Titan controllers and
powered via a 2-wire I/O Communications Network. With more than a
million parts of resolution over a 0-5 volt span, Titan I/O modules can be
directly interfaced to many sensors that produce signals of only a few
millivolts. Nearly any industrial sensor can be connected, although a few
special types may require external signal conditioning. This helps reduce
instrumentation costs and wiring complexity.
Each output channel is addressable, and can be extensively configured for
most types of output signals including digital (including on/off, pulse width
modulation, pulse period modulation, frequency), analog, and tri-state
floating control. Any combination of Titan Output Relay Boards can be
connected to the supplied backplane to provide the appropriate output
signals.
An optional on-board display unit with operator entry keys is available to
monitor readings and change setting values at the control locations.
Alternatives
I/O Modules are also available in a separate enclosure (TC-IO. A dual I/O Module enclosure is also available (TC-
IO/DUAL).
