Simple interface between Orbit® and PLC using Ethernet/IP
ODVA conformance tested
Cyclic and Explicit Data
Connecting EtherNet/IP™ PLC to LVDT type sensors is now easy. The EtherNet/IP™ version of the PIM is a PLC compatible EtherNet/IP™ to ORBIT®3 interface module, that enable easy connections between any EtherNet/IP™ enabled controller and Solartron’s flexible ORBIT®3 digital measurement system allowing LVDT type sensors to connect to a PLC.
The PIM makes it simple to interface a wide range of contact and non-contact linear measurement sensors, rotary encoders, temperature and pressure sensors and discrete inputs and outputs via EtherNet/IP™.
This stand alone, Din Rail mounted module provides one EtherNet/IP™ port and one ORBIT®3 port which can power up to ten LVDT type displacement sensors or other sensors;. This can be extended up to a maximum of 150 sensors with the use of supplementary power modules. The EtherNet/IP™ protocol driver supports the Explicit and Cyclic Messaging implementation of the protocol as a server. The EtherNet/IP™ port is a very powerful data transfer tool designed for easy connection to Rockwell Automation PLCs. Applications are found in many industries including manufacturing, automation and control, power generation and food processing.
Connecting ProfiNet® PLC to LVDT type sensors is now easy. The ProfiNet® version of the PIM is a PLC compatible ProfiNet® to ORBIT®3 interface module, that enable easy connections between any ProfiNet® enabled controller and Solartron’s flexible ORBIT®3 digital measurement system allowing LVDT type sensors to connect to a PLC.
The PIM makes it simple to interface a wide range of contact and non-contact linear measurement sensors, rotary encoders, temperature and pressure sensors and discrete inputs and outputs via EtherCat™.
This stand alone, Din Rail mounted module provides one port and one ORBIT®3 port which can power up to ten LVDT type displacement sensors or other sensors. This can be extended up to a maximum of 150 sensors with the use of supplementary power modules. The ProfiNet® protocol driver supports the Explicit and Cyclic Messaging implementation of the protocol as a server. The ProfiNet® port is a very powerful data transfer tool designed for easy connection to Siemens PLCs. Applications are found in many industries including manufacturing, automation and control, power generation and food processing.

Whether it be PC, laptop or PLC, Solartron offers a range of Interface Modules and PLC gateways for directly connecting to an Orbit® Network with the Controller of your choice.The interface module provides a method of connecting controllers to the Orbit® network where the controller itself runs the network. The interface module simply translates and retransmits the Orbit® commands between the Network and the Controller.
Solartron offer a range of modules for 3rd party sensors and general instrumentation tasks that expand the Orbit® Measurement System for applications that are not just linear measurement.
