EtherNet/IP Multi-turn Resolver Compatible with Allen Bradley PLCs

June 23, 2010 - PRLog -- Terryville, CT – Advanced Micro Controls Inc. (AMCI), has released the NR25 series of heavy-duty EtherNet/IP resolvers.  Compatible with all Allen-Bradley PLCs that support EtherNet/IP, these networked rotary sensors provide an overall measuring range of 16 bits (single-turn resolution) plus 14 bits (number of revolutions), or 30 bits total.  With both single-turn and multi-turn versions available, AMCI’s EtherNet/IP resolvers are ready for any application.  Designed in accordance with ODVA guidelines, the AMCI EtherNet/IP resolvers have been accepted into the Rockwell Automation Encompass™ Program as a referenced product.

NR25 EtherNet/IP Resolver Features:
•   Up to 30 bit (65536 steps x 16384 revolutions) Resolution
•   Absolute Single-turn and Multi-turn
•   Power over EtherNet (PoE)
•   IP67 Ingress Protection Rating
•   Solid Shaft and Hub Shaft Versions
•   Stainless Steel Units Available
•   Accepted into Rockwell Automation Encompass Program
•   ODVA Compliant

Simplify Installation and Cut Costs
AMCI’s NR25 EtherNet/IP resolver comes standard with Power over Ethernet (PoE), making it possible to install this resolver using a single Ethernet cable that transmits data and power.  The connector and cabling requirements are cut in half, plus installation is simpler and less expensive.  Additionally, the ability to program with implicit and explicit messaging allows the NR25 series resolvers to easily integrate with Allen-Bradley PLCs and PACs supporting EtherNet/IP.  Position resolution, counting direction, velocity format, and presets are all configured easily through the EtherNet/IP port using RSLogix programming software.   And the ability to configure parameters simultaneously makes the NR25 resolver quick and easy to set up.  

LEDs on the NR25 EtherNet/IP resolvers help technicians troubleshoot from the factory floor by displaying diagnostic information including module status, network status, and link/activity status.  

The Package
The ODVA compliant NR25 EtherNet/IP resolvers are offered in a 2.5” diameter package with two M12 connectors on the back, supplying power and EtherNet/IP connectivity.  The NR25 is resolver based, meaning that it was designed to provide absolute position feedback without glass discs or sensitive LED components, enabling it to withstand high levels of shock and vibration.  The IP67 rated package is the solution for single-turn and multi-turn position applications requiring protection from dust and water ingress.  Stainless steel versions are also available for food grade and marine environments.
