The RMS680, Class 1 Division 2 is ideal for monitoring assets in hazardous locations around the world.

The RMS680 combines local sensor, actuator and serial interfaces with a cost-effective satellite modem. Software controllable events, RS485 and discrete input/output lines make the RMS680 a highly flexible hardware component of M2M's remote monitoring services.

Whether using standalone or with RTU/PLC, native Modbus support on the RMS680 provides a direct connection to common industrial automation equipment, for quick and easy installation. 

Features & Benefits

• Class 1 Division 2, Groups A, B, C, D certified terminal meets industry standards for electronic equipment in Oil and Gas markets.
• Modbus protocol interfaces directly with common SCADA devices such as RTU, PLC and flow meters to quickly and easily implement reporting and telemetry capabilities for remote equipment.
• RS485 serial interface allows connection to SCADA devices over large distances to enable flexible deployment in a wide range of operating conditions.
• Seamless global coverage based on the Inmarsat satellite constellation enables operational benefits in remote regions.
• Expanded operating temperature range allows reliable deployment in some of the world’s most demanding environments.
• Immediate reporting of digital status change (all data sent with report).
• Discrete inputs enable monitoring of local devices not using Modbus.
• Over-the-air programming enables M2M to remotely reconfigure parameters such as threshold levels or report frequency.
