Model 485DRCi industrial-grade isolated serial converter changes RS-232 signals to RS-422 for increased range, or to RS-485 for increased range plus multi-drop capability.
Designed for rugged industrial use, the 485DRCi is UL approved and certified for operation in Class 1/Division 2 environments and also offers 2,000V 3-way optical isolation on input, output, and power lines. In addition to optical isolation, the unit has surge suppression on the RS-422/485 lines. This DIN rail mountable converter optically isolates and converts unbalanced, full or half-duplex, RS-232 signals to balanced RS-422/485 signals at baud rates up to 115.2 kbps. Configuration is made via a 12-position DIP switch on the bottom of the converter.
Featuring Automatic Send Data Control circuitry, the converter does not require special software control of handshake signals in RS-485 mode. Removable terminal blocks for power and RS-422/485 signals make wiring easy. It is powered by a supply voltage of
Our SCP series RS-232 to RS-422/485 serial DIN rail and panel mount converters are compact and tough. Each model is designed and tested to meet heavy industrial EMC standards. The RS-232 signal is connected through a female DB9 connector. The RS-422/485 (2-Wire and 4-Wire) signal is connected through a removable terminal block, making wiring easy. Power is connected through a two position removable terminal block. Our bit-wise enabled circuitry automatically detects the character time-out eliminating the need to set DIP Switches for the baud rate.
Buy It Just the Way You Need It.
The basic model, SCP211-DFTB3, is non-isolated and made for less demanding temperature extremes. If you need a wider operating temperature but do not require isolation, model SCP211T-DFTB3 is available. These panel mount converter models should be used when isolation is not required, such as applications in which the data line does not exit the control cabinet.
The Toughest of the Bunch
Model SCP311T-DFTB3 offers 2 kV Isolation and will stand up to -40 to 80° C temperature variations. This is our most rugged model in this series. The SCP311 is an excellent investment for protecting your expensive control equipment
