iPCXLinux-based data logger
Compact industrial PC with large storage capacity, multiple fieldbus interfaces and integrated M-Bus level converter
Flexible data acquisition for up to 1000 measurements
The data logger iPCX speaks most of the common standardised data protocols and field buses. Measurements relating to Electricity, gas, water, heat etc. are easily connected. Same for operating and production data of all kind. At least 1000 running measurements from widely dispersed sensors, meters, automation stations etc. can be monitored simultaneously - via 2-wire field bus, wireless or via network. Metered values are bundled and transferred in real time to a data platform of your choice. Our security architecture for data transfer consistently receives top marks from the IT executives of customers.
The iPCX is a compact, powerful all-rounder. Despite its extensive functionality it is easy to use and configure via HTML interfaces. The hardware basis is a robust, fanless industrial PC based on Linux with large data memory.
Why the deZem iPCX ?
- Connection of sensors, meters, metering devices and other data sources via various field buses and interfaces
- Read out hundreds of data sources with one iPCX
- Local buffering of at least 3.6 million metered values in a ring buffer
- Reliable, redundant real-time transmission of metered values via Ethernet or mobile communications
- Data transmission via HTTPS, CSV-structured
- Two freely configurable destination addresses (e.g. Intranet and Internet)
- Integrated web server with access-protected configuration interface
- Optionally remote configuration and remote update
- Time resolution of metered values up to 1 s
- Efficient, event-based reading of electrical metered variables with a ZMx Multi-Meter device
- Convenient configuration via scan and template functions
Use Case: Energy management
Many customers use the iPCX to collect energy data collection. The aim is to easily and efficiently monitor meters, installations and relevant variables; in other words, everything that affects energy efficiency . energy-related performance . Benefits go far beyond the ISO 50001 audit:
Electricity, water, gas, heat, temperatures, quantities
The iPCX collects any time-based data checks for plausibility, stores and transmits it to a data platform.
Heterogeneous, grown structures
with different protocols and gateways are simply connected to the iPCX.
New plants, changes to existing facilities
Many systems need long planning and lots of support. With the iPCX, infrastructure changes are quick and easy- and your energy data stays up to date.
Establishing complex energy data collection from scratch
With iPCX, it is done in a few weeks.
Compact form factor and easy configuration
The iPCX is particularly easy to use.
Recurring configurations
The configurations can be created on the first iPCX and then transferred to many other iPCXs.
