The UAR 24 belongs to the
wide range of intelligent peripherals of the powerful ABACO
Industrial BUS family cards.
The UAR 24 manages, on its own, any control problems associated with analog signals applied to its inputs, through four powerful outputs it is equipped with, and 2 D/A 12 Bits Converter lines which are optionals. If input probes are temperature probes, the UAR 24 running can be compared to a very sophisticated Termoregulator. It is very important to point out that the UAR 24 thermoregulating can exploit its performances both for Heating and Cooling cycles. The UAR 24 can be supplied as follows: standard version with 3A Relays outputs; version with only D/A 0÷10V outputs or version having both Relays and D/A lines. All these versions, in conjunction with an external power interface con drive the common actuators as Burners, Coolers, fans, ovens, motors, etc..
The UAR 24 accepts various types of analog input signals for monitoring and controlling in addition to temperature, pressure, Humidity, PH, Oxygen, etc. anything that can be expressed by an analogic signal.
The sophisticated Self-Calibration algorithms and the high resolution of the A/D Converter section which allows a resolution of 16 Bits + sign, ensure the UAR 24 an exceptional operating characteristics, affording resolution of 0.1 °C across the entire temperature measurement range.
All operating data referred to the type of input probes, set
point to be kept, response limits, alarms, control strategies
of PID type and/or proportional and so on, can be stored
in the on board EEPROM. 34 different parameters,
allow detailed definition of the manner in which the regulator
operates.
Parameters can be programmed by three distinct methods:
- high level dialogue using the Abaco® Industrial BUS
- high level dialogue using the serial communication line
- optional expansion card UAR 03D: this card will be equipped with a double 7 segments display, having 8 digits, and an external keyboard
All three methods can be used with equal facility, according
to the type of use to which the UAR 24 is dedicated. By
virtue of the design, the UAR 24 can operate either as
a stand alone processor without any external master CPU,
or it can be remoted and keeping the control through the serial
line. There are no conditions as regards the remote controller;
use can be made by any electronic device capable of serial communication
as standard PC or a PLC or any GPC® cards
selected in the wide grifo®
cards range.
Operating with a serial line, in Current Loop, RS 422
or RS 485 it is possible to connect up to 128 cards.
In this network it is possible to connect UAR 24 and/or
other intelligent peripherals as IPC
52 type. This kind of peripherals have an evoluted communication
protocol named grifo®
Network built in, which can be managed by using any device
able to drive a serial line.
The UAR 24 can be interrogated even during normal operations,
and parameters can be altered, without in any way affecting the
control cycle.This feature allows and uninterrupted supervision
of the process. Accordingly, any complex situation calling for
dynamic control profiles can be addressed simply and effectively.
In effect, the strategies to be applied in such instances will
be specific to the contingency, and not functions definable directly
and exclusively by the analog input parameters supplied to the
UAR 24.
By using the UAR 03D display option, the value of the regulated
signal can be monitored and displayed locally, leaving the display
devices of the master CPU free.
