Air Gauge & Interface Modules



Solartron offer a number of Interface modules to connect a PC to the Orbit network. Using a PC to control the network is a flexible solution with simple readings from sensors  to measure basic dimensions through complex high speed acquisition to perform processes like shaft profiling.

 

Interfacing Orbit to PLC which are often the preferred controller for automation is easily done using Solartron’s range of PLC to Orbit Interfaces.

Connecting to 3rd party sensors and switches is addressed with a range of modules such as the Digital I/O module and the analogue input module.

Capturing data from Air Gauging is easy using the AGM module, multiple modules can be simply connected and Air Gauging can be combined with contact gauging and process control

    Orbit® Interface Modules - Full Functionality, Full Support


    The Ethernet Interface Modules and USB Interface Modules provide full functional control of the Orbit system and supports all modes of data capture at full speed. These are the recommended Interface Modules for new installations unless wireless is a requirement then consider the Wireless Interface Module however this does not support all modes. RS232 is not recommended for new systems


    What We Provide

  • ETHIM2 Ethernet Orbit® Interface Modules
  • Wireless (Bluetooth) Orbit® Interface Modules
  • RS232 Orbit® Interface Modules
