Intelligent Central Units and I/O Modules With Suitable Interfaces

The iba Modular System

The iba modular system acquires and processes measurement signals and, with the appropriate signal output modules, is perfectly suited for control applications. The decisive advantage of the system is the freely configurable concept: a central unit can be combined with up to four additional input/output modules.

Modular Concept

The Flexible System

The modular concept is based on a module rack with backplane bus for one central unit and up to 4 input and output modules. With user-specific central units, various applications can be implemented.

The central units of the iba modular system in the iba system

Central units for each application

ibaPADU-S-CM is a pure communication unit for the input and output of different signals.
ibaCMU-S is the metrological core for condition monitoring applications.
ibaPQU-S is a Power Quality Unit for monitoring the grid quality according to standards with the highest precision.
ibaDAQ is equipped with an integrated ibaPDA system and can be used as stand-alone data acquisition device

Broad range of modules

The system includes several I/O modules for analog and digital inputs and outputs as well as for SSI and pulse transmitters. All I/O modules work with sampling rates of up to 40 kHz absolutely time-synchronously. Due to the modular technology and the broad range of I/O modules, the iba modular system can be flexibly adapted to the respective requirements.

Areas of application

The areas of application depend on the central unit that is used, the plugged modules and the used iba applications.

Typical examples are:

Acquisition of measurement values with and without pre-processing
Signal management
Controlling
Fast drive and position control
Condition monitoring
Data logger (Transient Fault Recorder)
Mill chatter monitoring and eccentricity analysis
Power Quality Monitoring
Stand-alone data logger for local applications
Mobile measuring

I/O Modules

The I/O modules are detected automatically by the central unit. The iba modular system can be configured by means of the I/O Manager in the ibaPDA application or the I/O Configurator in the ibaLogic application.

The central unit requires a power supply of 24 V DC. The power supply of I/O devices is provided internally by the backplane bus. A synchronization channel on the backplane guarantees isochronous sampling of all I/O modules.
