Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document introduces the IO-Link Compatible Compact Flow Rate Controller RAPIFLOW® FCM Series, emphasizing its capabilities in predictive maintenance and digital communication for various industrial applications.
Specifications
The FCM Series supports multiple gases such as air, nitrogen, and hydrogen, with flow rates from 0.015 to 100 L/min. It is available in resin and stainless steel bodies, weighing approximately 200g and 480g respectively.
IO-Link Features
IO-Link enables continuous monitoring, remote parameter control, and error notification, supporting integration with Ethernet networks for IoT readiness.
System Abnormality Warning Functions
The controller includes self-detection for sensor and solenoid valve deterioration, and can detect peripheral system abnormalities, outputting alarms via IO-Link.
Applications
Suitable for industries like machinery and biotechnology, the FCM Series is ideal for burner flame control and inert gas filling.
Communication Specifications
Utilizes IO-Link protocol version V1.1 with a transmission bit rate of 230.4 kbps, supporting a process data length of 10 bytes for input and 4 bytes for output.
Model Variations
Various models are detailed with specific gases, flow rate ranges, and body materials, tailored for specific requirements.
Technical Specifications
Features a proportional solenoid valve with a control range of 3 to 100% full scale, offering high accuracy and repeatability.
Protection and Compliance
Complies with IEC standards IP40 and EMC Directive EN55011, including protection circuits for power supply reverse connection.
Specifications and Requirements
Use dry gas free from corrosive elements, ensure sufficient current supply, and note that the internal valve is not zero-leakage.
