The RTD Scanner monitors 8 RTD inputs (PT100) from a diesel engine and the temperature information is provided to the engine control system over a SAE J1939 CAN bus. Temperature information can include exhaust temperature, winding temperature, and fluid temperature monitoring. All channels of temperature data are automatically sent over the CAN bus when power is applied with no additional programming or configuration required. Integral diagnostics determine RTD integrity. RTD inputs are isolated from the CAN communication and power supply. During set-up, using a USB-CAN converter and a PC, the operator can configure the controller via the Axiomatic Electronic Assistant to suit a wide variety of applications.
The RTD Scanner features rugged packaging and TE Deutsch connectors for an IP67 rating.
Applications include stationary/portable power generator sets and genset control systems.
