Our INTRON-X is a state-of-the-art modular IP-based platform for scalable Intercom, PA\/GA and PA solutions. The INTRON-X provides solutions for all types of industrial communication needs and requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are five main INTRON-X modules: XCO, XDG, XIO, XAL and XBC<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By now, you already know almost all the X-modules. Last time we introduced you to our module which connects analog audio components \u2013 the XAL<\/a>. <\/strong>This module is mainly used to connect up to 6 analog audio components \u2013 analog intercom stations, as well as interconnect INDUSTRONIC systems and third-party systems. Today we want to present our XBC<\/strong> \u2013 a module to connect different types of flashing warning beacons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Best Solution to Control Beacons<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our XBC is used to switch and monitor up to 4 AC or DC flashing warning beacon circuits wired as line and\/or loop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The advantage of line cabling is the reduction of the loop back to the terminal device. Therefore, line cabling is cheaper than a loop cabling. If the cable is interrupted in line cabling, the beacons connected after the break are no longer supplied with power and therefore fail. Fail-safety suffers with this method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With loop cabling, the flashing warning beacons are supplied with power from two supply points. In the event of a fault, the beacons continue to be supplied from the other line, making a failure very unlikely.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The XBC supports automatic line monitoring of the flashing warning beacons for cable break, short circuit and ground leakage. Contrary to the loop cabling, the line cabling needs a 1 ELM<\/a> end-of-line-module. The ELM presents a defined resistance, making the monitoring of line cabling possible for the XBC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like all INTRON-X modules, the XBC also has 2 Ethernet interfaces, which allow for redundant network access. If one network interface fails, data is transmitted via the second one. The XBC has an integrated automatic self-monitoring function. The internal electronics are powered via PoE (with redundancy) or a separate DC supply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Compact Industrial Design<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The INTRON-X modules have a uniform and fanless industrial design. One module has a width of only 1\/3 19″ and a height of 1 RU. All modules have the same size, so that 3 of them can be flexibly combined in a 19″ chassis or other suitable location by using the appropriate chassis. This allows a decentralized and centralized installation – just as your project requires it. Thanks to IP all INTRON-X components are interconnected via the network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The XBC can be supplied via an external DC power supply. Commissioning is done via software tools from INDUSTRONIC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The module is supplied with all necessary accessories allowing, for a seamless start right out of the box. This means that all required cables and terminal blocks are included in a so-called Preferred Module. Extend your possibilities! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
