Programmable controllers for rail air conditioning systems

OEM Technology Solutions PC3 series programmable controller is an innovative new product for the rail and transportation market and is ideal for applications such as rail air conditioning systems.

The PC3 is extremely configurable as you can select the number and type of PC3 I/O from a wide range of modules. Choose your configuration and create your own industrial single board controller. The PC3 has been designed specifically for high reliability applications such as those within the rail industry.

The controller has been designed to comply with the strict railway standard EN50155 for electronic equipment used on rolling stock. The PC3 supports both international programming standards IEC61131-3 and IEC61499.

OEM Technology Solutions can provide ISO9001 accredited design services to customise the PC3 controller to suit your application.

Programmable controllers for control and monitoring applications

OEM Technology Solutions PC1 range of programmable controllers have been designed and manufactured to meet the most demanding control and monitoring applications particularly in the rail and associated transportation industries.

The PC1 controllers are low profile and are housed in rugged enclosures. Each comes with adequate mounting points and optional DIN mounting clips. All controllers are equipped with an Ethernet port for connection to the local area network (LAN). Control and monitoring data may be passed between controllers or onto the management system.

The controllers have been designed to operate on a wide range of supply voltage and in demanding environmental conditions, making them ideal for rail and wider transport applications. The I/O on each controller may be extended by connecting additional I/O expansion modules to the RS485 port. I/O expansion modules are available in a range of configurations, including analogue and digital inputs and outputs.

The internationally recognised IEC61131-3 programming system makes configuring and programming the controllers simple. The use of graphical languages ensures that long-term maintenance is not an issue.

Communication gateways

More and more customers require secure remote access monitoring, control and programming of their control system. OEM Technology Solutions recognise this and offer the ComTeso communications gateways, which provide the necessary connectivity to the OEM-Teso network.

The OEM Technology Solutions gateways offer a range of gateways to suit the application and the communications infrastructure available. This includes standard phone lines, cellular networks, wireless or the internet.
