The USC-3003’s are Remote Terminal Units (RTU’s) especially dedicated to the remote control of industrial processes in harsh environments, as for example encountered in the management of electrical networks.

The USC-3003’s are designed around a  powerful main CPU card controlling intelligent Input/Output cards in a multi-processor  architecture. Terminal blocks are used for connecting the I/O cards to the equipment of the process under control. The system is modular. It is offered in 19’’ chassis with a height of 5 DIN Units.

In the basic 19” rack configuration, the maximum number of points handled is 448 (DI’s only). The average capacity depends on the relative quantities of I/O types required. For example, a single rack can handle an average mix of 256 simple DI’s, 128 simple DO’s and 48 AI’s, a total of 432 points. The one rack configuration can be extended by chaining a number of identical racks. A maximum number of 4 racks is standard in this product range. With the same mix of  I/O’s as above, the number of points controlled is then 1792.

For even more demanding requirements, the configuration can be extended in specially tailored arrangements.
