Communication modules for extreme environments

| By Chemical Engineering

The Logix-XT product family (photo) is designed for applications requiring increased reliability in high-temperature and corrosive environments, such as those found in oil-and-gas, wind-turbine and ship-building applications. The Logix-XT product family includes the Logix-XT controller, Allen-Bradley FLEX I/O-XT products and ProSoft Technology communication modules. This product family operates in a broad temperature spectrum, –20º to 70ºC, and meets ANSI/ISA-S71.04-1985 Class G1, G2 and G3, as well as cULus, Class 1 Div 2, C-Tick, CE, ATEX Zone 2 and SIL 2 requirements for increased protection against salts, corrosives, moisture condensation, humidity and fungal growth. — Rockwell Automation, Milwaukee, Wis.
