Product Description

The Emerson A6824R is a high-reliability ModBus and Rack Interface Module designed for critical rotating machinery in industrial environments. It reads parameters from all AMS 6500 modules and outputs these parameters via ModBus TCP/IP and/or ModBus RTU (serial). This 1-slot monitor is used together with other AMS 6500 monitors to build a complete API 670 machinery protection monitor. It is suitable for applications such as steam, gas compressors, and hydro turbine machinery.
