Description

The Rail Control Unit (RCU) ANTARES is the central unit in the ANTARES system. It consists of the head module and the connection module. Various field bus and Ethernet-based head modules are available. There is no need to use an isolating repeater to connect them. Redundancy is achieved with no single point of failure by connecting two PROFIBUS-DP RCUs. The head module, consisting of the CPU, the communication interface and an integrated power supply unit, is produced with the Ex d type of protection and is plugged into the corresponding connection module. The innovative interlocking technology ensures a reliable connection. The hot swap capability allows the head module to be replaced even in an explosive atmosphere. The connection module has an integrated Ex e junction box. A version is also available for armoured leads. The system is configured by means of Software ANTARES Designer using the USB interface. See the system description for installation instructions.
