Remote IO Module

The subsea remote IO module is a plug-and-play communications hub for interfacing sensors and measurement devices to a subsea network

Description

The subsea remote IO module is a plug-and-play communications hub for interfacing sensors and measurement devices to a subsea network. It represents an ideal way to build a robust, high capacity sensor/device network, subsea. The IO module is a compact, oil-filled pressure compensated unit containing embedded IO electronics with multiple high-speed high resolution data channels for interfacing to subsea sensors and measurement devices.

The unit reads digital and analogue signals and presents measurement data to a host or client system via Modbus over Ethernet or RS485 serial line. The unit also distributes 24 VDC power to the external sensors and devices.

Key features

  • 16 analogue input channels, 16-bit resolution
  • 4 digital input channels with pulse counter
  • 16 connectors for external devices
  • Ethernet expansion port
  • Modbus RTU expansion port
  • Ethernet and RS485 serial uplink to client system (Modbus TCP and RTU)
  • Water ingress sensor
  • Designed for 3000 m water depth
  • Field proven
