4 Channel HART Analog Input to Ethernet Gateway

4 Channel HART Input Module

The PLX51-HART-4I allows users to easily connect their existing HART-compatible field devices to EtherNet/IP™, Modbus® TCP/IP, and DNP3 Ethernet networks.
The module can be used to connect HART Input devices such as process instruments into an Ethernet network. 

The PLX51-HART-4I supports up to 4 channels of HART communication, as well as Analog 4-20 mA signals for real-time process variables to/from the HART-compatible device.
