Emerson PAC8000 Remote I/O The Control Solution for Process Industries

Remote Processing I/O Emerson PAC8000 для промышленного управления

PAC8000 Remote I/O is a completely modular I/O solution for both general purpose and hazardous area applications. Based upon a carrier system, PAC8000 supports a wide range of modules and I/O functions, including intrinsic safety signals. An open architecture allows communication with a variety of different fieldbuses by selecting the appropriate type of Bus Interface Module (BIM). Designed to resist extreme temperatures,   humidity, corrosive materials, shocks, and   vibration, PAC8000 delivers full specification performance in even the harshest environments. In ATEX environments PAC8000 excels – all   components can be mounted and live worked in Zone 2 / Division 2 and ATEX Zone 1 hazardous areas. The I/O includes types that can be   connected directly to intrinsically safe (Exi)   or  increased safety (Exe) field wiring.   PAC8000 Remote I/O integrates seamlessly with PACSystems solutions and is connected via   PROFINET or Modbus TCP to RX3i and RSTi-EP controllers.

Harsh & Hazardous Area Operation

PAC8000 can go where other products cannot. They can be f ield mounted and subjected to the following: n -40°C to +70°C operating range n ISA Level G3 corrosion n 30g shocks and 5g vibration n Operation in Class I, Division 2 and Zone 2 hazardous areas  with I/O module field wiring including intrinsically safe (Exi)  and increased safety (Exe) options n Supports UL HAZLOC C1D1 and ATEX Zone 1 hazardous areas  with I/O module field wiring including intrinsically safe (Exi) and increased safety (Exe) options

High Availability

PAC8000 supports PROFINET System Redundancy (PNSR),   enabling synchronized independent controllers to service the I/O and transition from active to back-up controller without interruption. With controllers separated up to 10 kilometers from each other, processes will be resilient from physical   disruption. Consider unplanned downtime a thing of the past.

Variety of IO Modules

Beyond just analog and digital I/O, a broad range of PAC8000 I/O modules are available, including options for low-level   instrumentation, AC mains, and intrinsically safe signals.   4, 8, 16, and 32 field channels modules are available, and   all modules provide comprehensive diagnostic information

Easy Troubleshooting and   Machine Setup

Using integrated PAC Machine Edition (PME) software, you can easily configure PAC8000 I/O. If you are using PROFINET then it is even easier using the GSDML file. PME is the same software as all PACSystems CPUs so you only need a single tool from small to large applications. This approach utilizes the same hardware configuration, network configuration, and   programming editors. HMI development is also streamlined with a single tag database for QuickPanel+ HMIs

HART Support

PAC8000 Modbus EBIM can provide HART data directly to Emerson’s Asset Management System (AMS), allowing remote configuration and access to field instrument diagnostic  information. PAC8000 can also acquire HART data for use in the process controlapplication. HART devices may be selected for regular status monitoring and alerts can be issued if the status changes. This allows for reduced commissioning time, reduced downtime, and reduced maintenance costs
