A central component of Banner’s Snap Signal portfolio, the DXMR90-X1E Industrial Controller receives signals from sensors and other connected devices through four dedicated Modbus ports. The onboard processor combines these signals into a unified stream of insightful device data, which can be exported through industrial Ethernet protocols. The DXMR90-X1E also has both power and Ethernet pass-through, allowing multiple devices to be networked together and connected to a controller using one Ethernet connection.
Recently, Emerson launched its new AVENTICS DS1 dew point sensor, an industrial sensor able to monitor dew point, temperature, humidity levels and quality of compressed air and other non-corrosive gases in real time from one device. The DS1 can help operators detect and mitigate excess moisture in its early stages and prevent moisture-related equipment damage. By optimizing air quality in this way, operators can better control processes, extend pneumatic component life, ensure regulatory compliance, and reduce maintenance and unplanned downtime.
