Emerson  A6500-RC

Product Description

The A6500-RC is a sophisticated 16-channel output relay module engineered for high reliability in demanding industrial environments. It's an integral part of the AMS 6500 ATG machinery protection system, designed to meet stringent industry standards like API 670. This module enables precise control over external devices and alarms, crucial for proactive machinery protection. It's hot-swappable, allowing for replacement without interrupting system operation, and supports redundant relay configurations for enhanced fault tolerance. The module is also highly configurable, allowing users to apply Boolean logic (AND, OR, XOR, etc.) and time delays to its 66 inputs to create complex protection strategies. Its user-friendly software offers graphical displays to simplify configuration.
