Description
Programmable Controller
The PC2610 is a EN 50155 compliant, software configurable programmable controller. It is suitable for railway applications on rail vehicles.
The PC2610 has been proven to survive the rigors required for railway vehicles including electrical surges and transients (EN 50155/EN 50121-3-2), shock and vibration (EN 50155/EN 61373), an operating temperature of -40 °C to +70 °C and a relative humidity of 5% to 95% non-condensing.
Applications
A wide range of railway applications is supported. The PC2610 is intended for passenger vehicle condition-based monitoring, HVAC control systems, onboard controls for fire protection, power packs and doors, as well as locomotive performance and condition monitoring, trackside monitoring and SCADA, and industrial control systems.
