MOXA ICF-1150I-M-SC-IEX Introduction
The Moxa ICF-1150I-M-SC-IEX serial to fiber converter is designed to extend the transmission distance of RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 signals by converting them to optical fiber. By utilizing fiber optics, the converter ensures that data can be transferred over longer distances with enhanced reliability, which is excellent for industries like Oil and Gas and Factory Automation. Operating in a temperature range of 0 to 60°C, the Moxa ICF-1150I-M-SC-IEX offers robust performance and flawless communication between devices even in harsh environments. The ICF-1150I-M-SC-IEX model also features three-way communication and a rotary switch for setting the pull high/low resistor to enable easier onsite installations. This functionality in the Moxa RS-232/422/485 to fiber converter is particularly useful for tuning the impedance of the RS-485 bus when connecting multiple serial devices, such as meters, RTUs, and readers. With a simple rotation of the switch, users can adjust the resistance without having to remove the device from the DIN rail. The Moxa ICF-1150 series consists of products that you just cannot ignore.
The IECEx Certificate for Industrial Applications
The IECEx Certificate is a critical safety standard for industrial applications involving potentially explosive atmospheres. The Moxa ICF-1150I-M-SC-IEX converter is IECEx certified. This certification verifies the device’s safe operation in hazardous locations commonly found in industries like oil and gas. It is especially important for serial to fiber converters as they are often used in environments with volatile gases, and the IECEx standard guarantees that the device will not ignite these hazardous materials. By complying with this certification, the Moxa ICF-1150I-M-SC-IEX serial converter offers users confidence in its safe and reliable performance in critical operations. The industrial edge connectivity solutions ensure secure data transmission, even in the most challenging industrial environments. As part of the Moxa converter portfolio, this model’s compliance with the IECEx Certificate further reinforces its suitability for industrial applications that require high safety standards.
Flexible Serial Interface and Isolation
The Moxa ICF-1150I-M-SC-IEX offers flexible connectivity options with its support for RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 serial standards. With two serial ports, this converter can manage baud rates ranging from 50 bps to 921.6 kbps, including non-standard baud rates, providing extensive flexibility in communication setups. The ADDC (automatic data direction control) function for RS-485 simplifies flow control to make certain that the data is transmitted efficiently without manual intervention. Connections are facilitated through a 5-pin terminal block for the serial interface, while the fiber connection is managed by a multi-mode SC connector for reliable data transmission. The ICF 1150I M SC IEX model also includes 2 kV isolation, offering enhanced protection in high-voltage environments, ultimately reducing the risk of damage to the device and connected equipment. This robust design makes the Moxa ICF 1150I M SC IEX a reliable RS-232/422/485 to fiber converter for various industrial applications. For further details, users can refer to the Moxa ICF-1150I-M-SC-IEX datasheet.
