PD6830X ProtEX-MFI Explosion-Proof Modbus Scanner
Brand: Precision Digital Corporation
The ProtEX PD6830X is an explosion-proof, RS485 serial input Modbus® RTU scanner capable of scanning up to 16 Modbus variables and displaying them on an easy-to-read, dual-line, LCD display.
This Modbus scanner can be programmed as a Modbus RTU master, slave, or snooper.
The PD6830X is available in two upper display line configurations: 5-digit decimal display and feet & inches display with bar graph.
The lower line is the same for both versions and consists of seven alphanumeric characters.
Like all ProtEX products, the PD6830 carries FM, CSA, ATEX, and IECEx approvals for use in hazardous areas.
Two features that really make the PD6830X stand out are its wide viewing angle display and SafeTouch® through-glass buttons.
These buttons allow the PD6830X to be programmed and operated through the glass, thus eliminating the need to remove the cover in a hazardous area.
