Red Lion E3 I/O distributed I/O platform

Red Lion has released a rugged E3 I/O Ethernet-enabled distributed I/O platform that extends digital and analog control. The platform is suitable for remote stand-alone applications including PLCs, RTU systems and high-density I/O, along with Red Lion’s Graphite HMIs.

E3 I/O high-density modules offer up to 34 mixed I/O points to meet varying requirements and are able to withstand -40 to 75°C temperatures. The all-metal housing features 16-bit resolution with 0.003% accuracy, 1 ms analog sampling options and 50 kHz high-speed counter inputs.

Robust networking capabilities and real-time monitoring are achievable via the built-in web server, while the device is equipped with versatile built-in serial ports. Dual Ethernet ports provide a variety of network modes, including real-time redundancy for ensured reliability.

Red Lion’s Crimson 3.0 software, which is included, is a programming platform that unlocks the power of E3 I/O modules with simple drag-and-drop, point-and-click configuration. The platform is suitable for a wide array of industries, including water, wastewater, manufacturing, power and energy, mining, and oil and gas.
