Advantys-STB eNod4-T integration on Schneider Electric Advantys-STB system

Advanty-STB remote I/Os

Flexible enough to provide the best suitability for almost any

application, this open solution is, at the same time, an

input/output platform, an integration system platform, a cabling

solution and a power management system that is very modular.

• Modular and evolutionary design: up to 32 modules

distributed over 15 meters.

• Intelligent system: hot swapping of I/O modules,

automatic or software configuration, remote or local

real-time access.

• Simplified setting-up: separate supply for sensors and

actuators and integrated protection,

• Removable memory card for quick and easy duplication.

eNod4-T integration on Advantys-STB eNod4-T can be integrated to Advantys-STB by using CANopen® extension:

► Fieldbus communication specifications

• CAN2.0A communication port with selectable baud rate and optional termination resistor

• Network address coded on 2 rotary switches.

• CAN baud rates coded with 3 DIP switches : baud rate on advantys-STB is 500 kbits/s

► eNod4-T default mapping

• TPDO’s allow the network master to monitor the measurement evolution and to get logical inputs/outputs status.

• eNod4-T can be configured through the following RPDO’s commands: tare, zero, cancel tare, calibration.

• On Advantys-STB, eNod4-T optimization mapping is available via ‘Dynamic mapping’

• All the data that can be transmitted through PDO’s might also be accessed using SDO’s.

• These settings are accessible through SDO’s. As being defined by default, setting them systematically is not requested to

use eNod4-T on a CANopen® network. On Advantys-STB, these parameters are accessible via RTP (run time parameters)

Application case N°30P

INERIS – France Loss-in-mass measurement during combustion

The INERIS institute is a Frebch competence center for industrial safety and environmental protection. It has developed expertise in the areas of hazardous risks. INERIS conducts studies and research programmes aimed at preventing the risks of economic activities on health, safety of persons and environment.

Customer need As part of its research activities, INERIS needs to characterize the energy released by combustion of materials in different environments. These data are used for the fire safety of industrial infrastructure.

This characteristic is deduced from the loss in mass measurement of the material during its combustion.

Thus the INERIS was looking for a very accurate weighing system with a local display and Ethernet connectivity with the data acquisition unit.

SCAIME solution SCAIME, with its local partner CAP instrumentation proposed two measuring systems offering dual measurement range on the same weighing infrastructure.

SCAIME products:

1 weighing system with 4 CB50X 5t load cells connected to an eNod4-T weighing controller

1 weighing system with 4 CB50X 10t load cells connected to a second eNod4-T controller

1 touchscreen eNodTouch

NA-30P-INERIS-0616-E

Description of the application:

To analyze the combustion of a material in a particular environment, INERIS built a room specially designed to simulate this environment. The material to be studied is placed on a weighing platform mounted within the room.

The weighing platform is equipped with 4 load cells CB50X 5t or 10t that can be swapped depending on the material mass to burn. This permutation allows achieving the client's accuracy target.

The sensors are connected to an eNod4-T controller with eNodtouch HMI for local control of the measurement.

Example of study: Characterization of energy released by the combustion of pallets. This study provides data to be used for the implementation of logistic centers (Eg. minimum distance from houses).

Customer benefits

The CB50X load cells associated with eNod4 controller offer high accuracy and high measurement speed. These parameters are essential for a proper characterization of the loss in mass.

The Modbus-TCP Ethernet connectivity enables fast and efficient interfacing with the customer data acquisition system.

Load cell CB50X 10t used for permutation
