Features and Benefits
OverviewThe IA240/241 embedded computers are designed for industrial automation applications. The computers feature 4 RS-232/422/485 serial ports, dual LANs, 4 digital input channels, 4 digital output channels, and a PCMCIA cardbus and SD socket in a compact, IP30 protected, industrial-strength rugged case. The IA240/241's vertical DIN-rail form factor makes it easy to install the computers in a small cabinet. This space-saving solution also facilitates easy wiring, making the IA240/241 a great choice as frontend embedded controllers for industrial applications. Wide temperature models of the IA240/241 are also available. The IA240-T and IA241-T can operate reliably in an operating temperature range of -40 to 75°C, making them appropriate for harsh industrial automation environments. More info >> |
