BUS Interfaces for the Ecotec® E3000 Multi-gas Leak Detector

In today’s industrial environment, communication is key, especially when it comes to integrating advanced tools and equipment into larger systems. The Ecotec® E3000 Multi-gas Leak Detector is already being used by many customers in integrated systems. Since the introduction of the IC1000 Interface Adapter, the capabilities of the Ecotec E3000 have been further expanded, allowing for seamless connectivity to industrial BUS communication systems.

Expanded Integration Possibilities

The IC1000 Interface adapter allows the Ecotec E3000 to integrate with some of the most common industrial BUS communication protocols, for more effective process monitoring and control. These include:

ProfiBus
ProfiNet
DeviceNet
EtherNetIP

BUS communication allows for faster and more reliable data exchange between the Ecotec E3000 and other components in an industrial network. This real-time flow of information ensures that any detected leaks can be addressed quickly, minimizing downtime and reducing the risk of costly repairs.

The ability to integrate the Ecotec E3000 with multiple BUS systems means that it can easily scale with expanding production lines. Whether you're upgrading existing equipment or expanding your production capacity, the Ecotec E3000 with the IC1000 Interface Adapter is ready to handle growing needs.

Ordering information

The IC1000 interface adapter can be ordered as catalog number 525-200. The scope of delivery includes the IC1000 adapter, a 0.5m data cable, a set of connecting cables, and operating instructions. Longer data cables (2m, 5m and 10m) are available as options.
