E-T-A REX12D System - Now Available with Enhanced Functionality

January 26, 2024

Functional Enhancement of the REX12D Intelligent System

The REX12D intelligent system is ideally adapted to the requirements of machine construction and process control. The compact and modular design, the innovative connection technology and the great number of different devices provide a competitive edge over standard solutions to protect your DC 24 V power distribution.

By extending the functional scope of the REX12D system you are free to decide where to set your focus.

Standard Version with Status Recording of 32 Channels

In the standard version, the EM12D-TIO supply module communicates with now 32 channels instead of 16 channels. The status of the channels is transmitted to the superordinate IO link master.

REX12D Standard

Enhanced Version with Recording of Measuring Values and Data Analysis

The extended version sets the focus on the recording of measuring values and on the analysis of these measuring data of 16 channels. By means of a cyclical transmission of the load currents, changes in the current consumption of individual loads can quickly be detected. This allows efficient control and maintenance and significantly cuts downtimes.

E-T-A CPC12 ControlPlex® System

July 25, 2022

Unrivalled Uptime in Machine Construction and Process Control

Requirements regarding product quality and stability of the production process are constantly rising in machine construction and process control.  The CPC12 ControlPlex System offers permanent data logging, analysis and processing.  This provides the required transparency to detect any changes in the production process at an early stage and to take countermeasures in time.

Consistency of the systems is particularly important.  Besides the field bus interfaces PROFINET and EtherCAT, the CPC12 bus controller also has another Ethernet interface. It allows access to the system even without fieldbus.  Direct access to the integral web server of the device is made possible.

All data and information are available on the device on site, but also in the office.  If the circuit protector has tripped, it can quickly be reset to operation.  Downtimes are reduced and machine uptime is increased.  Data can easily be analysed and evaluated later by means of remote access.

The modular REX system is especially adapted to the special requirements of machine construction and process control. The CPC12 bus controller extends the REX system by the connection to different fieldbus connections.  This makes your DC 24 V power distribution and protection more transparent than ever.

The REX12D electronic circuit protector records status and measuring values of each load circuit and transmits them to the bus controller.  System operators and maintenance staff thus receive all information they need to detect changes and possible undesirable developments at an early stage.
