ADAM 4000 Series User’s Manual

ADAM modules can be mounted on any panels, brackets, or DIN
rails. They can also be stacked together.
The RS-485 network, together with screw-terminal plug connectors,
allows for system expansion, reconfiguration, and repair without
disturbing field wiring.
Protection against the environment
Since all the configurations are controlled by software, the
protection provided by the packaging is very important. The plastic
outer shell enhances resistance against corrosive materials, moistures
and vibrations. ADAM modules’ low power requirements help them to
operate in temperatures from 0 to 70, and in humidity from 0 to 95%
(non-condensing). They are compactly built using automated SMT
technology. Therefore, they can be implemented in water-tight and
explosion-proof industrial enclosures.
