GRAC0001 Graphite Edge Controller

Brand: Red Lion Controls
Does not ship to OH, United States
The Graphite Edge Controller is a rugged all-in-one industrial solution that reduces cost and complexity by combining IEC 61131 control capabilities with networking and data visualization. 

Integrating communication and control into factory automation and process control applications has never been easier. 

With all-metal construction, a built-in web server, data logging with SD card, and Red Lion’s Crimson 3.0 software with Crimson Control functionality, our rugged controller operates in the harshest environments to provide a single programming solution for control, networking and data visualization.
Features
  • Powerful Crimson 3.0 software with Crimson Control
    • Intuitive drag-and-drop graphical software for easy setup
    • Use industry-standard IEC 61131 programming languages such as ladder logic, function block, structured text and instruction list
    • No special gateways or added fees for protocol conversion
    • Easy single-solution configuration eliminates need for third-party software
  • Versatile I/O Module & Expansion Options
    • Support small scale applications using on-board module slot for functions including PID control, digital or Analog I/O or specialized communications
    • Connect graphite expansion racks to easily scale for larger application or additional I/O
    • Extend even further with E3 I/O high-density modules
  • Industry-Leading Protocol Conversion
    • Communicate with over 300 major industrial protocols
    • Support up to 18 simultaneous protocol conversions
    • Convert between serial, USB and Ethernet devices
    • Manage multi-vendor environments with ease
  • Rugged Environmental Specifications
    • Wide -40° to 70° C operating temperature
    • High shock and vibration tolerance
    • CE, UL/cUL and UL/cUL Hazardous approvals
  • Powerful Integration Functionality
    • Ethernet, USB and serial ports make communication simple
    • Built-in data logging enhances troubleshooting and helps meet regulatory requirements
    • Robust web server provides remote visualization, access and control to reduce site visits
