The Crouse-Hinds series MTL RugiCAM-IP high definition Intrinsically Safe (IS)

ethernet camera is ideally suited for Group I Mining applications and other

hazardous zone 1 and zone 2 areas.

The first of its kind for the hazardous area market, the MTL RugiCAM-IP camera

monitors and provides enhanced visual safety to control and automation systems

installed on site. It features Full HD 1080P resolution and supports video streaming

via the H.264 or H.265 compression standards and/or Motion JPEG with frame rate

selectable to reduce network bandwidth.

Cpmpact and lightweight, the RugiCAM connects directly to compatible IS Ethernet

Systems via a wired LAN cable or Wi-Fi (both work concurrently).

The small, rugged and cost effective design makes it the ideal choice for many

petrochemical and mining applications, including:

Drill Rigs, Process Monitoring, Remote Safety Inspections, Hazardous Zone Security

Conveyor Transfer Points, Bunkers, Fan Sites, Face Roof Supports (Chocks/Shields)

It is lightweight, connecting directly to compatible IS Ethernet systems up to 100

metres via a Cat5e cable or WiFi, and it allows for quick and easy maintenance,

therefore enabling plants to save time and associated costs.

The Crouse-Hinds series MTL ExLAN is an intrinsically safe (IS)

10/100Mbps Ethernet Interface incorporating CSLs patented

technology. This module is intended to simplify OEM product

design and certification. It ensures full IS compatibility of

interconnected devices including the current range of MTL 9400

IS Ethernet modules and future product ranges.

As well as providing the essential network LAN interface,

the module also voltage-clamps the equipment’s main supply rail

(typically 5V or 3V3) together, ensuring that the generated

Ethernet signals are limited to low Intrinsically Safe levels.

It is fully compatible with PoExTM (12VDC Power over Ethernet

for Hazardous Areas).

The 9661-ETW is an MTL Intrinsically Safe (IS) Ethernet to Serial

4 Port Communication Module suitable for Zone 1 mounting with a

suitable Ex ib power supply, Zone 0 with a suitable Ex ia power supply.

The Module allows existing Intrinsically Safe equipment with an

RS485/RS422 or RS232/TTL port to become Ethernet Enabled via

either Wi-Fi (WLAN) or a Cat5/6 cable connection into an IS Ethernet

Network (LAN). The unit has 4 serial ports, each one supporting

either RS485/RS422 or RS232/TTL depending upon the configuration

required. There are 2 RJ45 (LAN) ports that support 10/100 IS Ethernet

connections – these allow ‘daisy-chaining’ of units together.

Power (12V DC) is supplied to the module either locally or using Power

over Ethernet (PoEx™) from the LAN port – This requires the PoEx

output to be wired to the Supply Input terminals by the user.

The compact and cost effective design makes it the ideal choice

for many applications such as Petrochemical – Process Monitoring,

Legacy Systems and Mining – Underground Communication Links,

Machine Monitoring and Legacy Systems.

Electrical connections are made via cage-clamp plug/socket terminals

along with a dual RJ45 type connector for the Ethernet LAN ports.

Twin SMA Style RF connectors allow one or two antenna to be

connected as required.

Minimise CapEx and maximise investment return with the revolutionary smart

universal marshalling solution, SUM5. MTL SUM5 combines five functions in

one modular design enabling one standard cabinet to deliver the lowest

lifetime costs and lowest installed cost while saving valuable space in a control

room.

MTL SUM5 offers a single cabinet design, with ‘plug and play’ configurable

modules for the five key marshalling functions. This eliminates the need for

intricate wiring to interconnect the components, ultimately improving uptime

and reducing the cost of wiring, installation and maintenance.

MTL SUM5’s modular design simplifies marshalling and provides increased

flexibility throughout the product lifetime. Loop disconnect is integrated in

every terminal, so loops can be easily isolated, which together with the modular

design, simplifies maintenance and keeps associated costs to a minimum.

MTL SUM5 reduces the number of marshalling components by 65% compared

to a standard solution. One MTL SUM5 universal ADIO isolator module supports

the functionality provided by 20 different MTL4500 single channel modules,

while the configurable parameters enable support for an even wider range of

applications. The marshalling solution provides comprehensive diagnostics,

notifying the process managers when action is required. It also features LED

indicators for power, function and status, which simplifies commissioning and

troubleshooting. The MTL SUM5 modules are designed for both cabinet mounting

in the control room, or field mounting. They are certified for ambient operating

temperatures from –40 to +70°C and for mounting in a Zone 2 hazardous area,

thus providing reliable operation in remote locations.
