EtherNet/IP Interface-Kit

Industrial Fieldbus Communication Kit for Optris CT Pyrometers

The Optris CT EtherNet/IP interface board ensures seamless integration and easy installation within the electronic boxes of Optris CT, CTlaser, or CTratio pyrometers. Equipped with a 4-pin M12, D-coded connector, it is ideal for industrial Ethernet applications, offering robust data communication with up to 100 Mbit/s transfer speeds and an IP67 protection rating. The integrated software stack guarantees reliable EtherNet/IP functionality, supporting essential pyrometer parameters and data mapping for temperatures and device status. Configuration is simplified through an EDS file, with dynamic parameter adjustments available during operation. Settings are stored internally, maintaining functionality even if the electronic box is replaced. It enhances industrial automation and temperature measurement applications by conforming to EMC and Low Voltage directives.

  • EtherNet/IP interface
  • ODVA approved
  • Full documentation with eds-files for Allen Bradley PLCs

The CT EtherNet/IP module maps the object temperature, internal temperature, device status, and other Pyrometer data to its Input Assembly. It is then sent to the EtherNet/IP network using CIP. In the initialization phase, the CT EtherNet/IP interface board sends the device’s configuration data accessible for setup via the PLC programming software Controller Tags. Furthermore, using different classes, the CT EtherNet/IP interface board allows you to change a subset of sensor parameters in data exchange mode.
