Modular measuring device with Profinet

April 2018 Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration

Within the Jumo range of sensor and automation products, available from ASSTech, is the Aquis touch P multichannel measuring device for liquid analysis. The latest version features a Profinet interface and now also has DNV approval for the shipbuilding industry. Profinet uses TCP/IP and IT standards, is real-time Ethernet capable and enables the integration of fieldbus systems. With the DNV GL-approval, the device fulfils the requirements for safety and reliability that ships and mobile offshore units have to observe in international waters.

The Jumo Aquis touch P covers measuring, controlling, recording and displaying tasks with one single device. Two analysis parameters can be directly connected and an additional five can be connected as standard signals. The Jumo digiLine system can even process six parameters. Digital interfaces enable an additional eight external measured values to be loaded. Flow measurement, including quantity determination, is also possible. The parameters are displayed on the colour monitor with touchscreen where operation and settings of the device are handled.

The integrated paperless recorder allows up to eight analog and six binary signals to be recorded simultaneously. The storage of data is tamper-proof and enables official record keeping requirements to be met without additional devices. Stored data can be extracted through a PC via Ethernet or a USB flash drive. The data can then be further processed with separate software.
