Solartron Metrology Interface Module

The Orbit 3 MODIM modbus interface module provides all users an easy gateway between MODBUS PLC’s and the Orbit 3 digital measurement system.. This is a highly accurate and flexible measurement system. The Modbus interface module also interfaces to any sensor with an analogue output including a wealth of other linear measurement sensors. This allows you to use the system for temperature, pressure, force, rotary measurement and linear displacement. All of these process variables to a PLC though just one simple Modbus communications interface.
