Barnett B-1280 FLX
The ProTalk® FLX is the most flexible site monitor and controller available today.
This 19" rack-mountable unit is easily expanded to monitor up to 240 alarm points. The FLX monitors both digital inputs and analog inputs though the use of expansion cards that can be installed at the factory, or in the field. Digital input points can be programmed as totalizer, watchdog, or interval types. Alarms can be reported and acknowledged over telephone lines, cellular and satellite telephones, RS-232 Ports, as well as mobile radio systems. Alphanumeric paging is also supported. The FLX is capable of acting as a slave using the Modbus protocol for direct connection to PLCs.
The FLX is ideally suited for many industrial applications including the monitoring of boilers, engines, electric substations, sewage lift stations, and radio and paging equipment sites, to name a few.
