METZ BTR 11083001 MR-GW Modbus RTU/Modbus TCP -yhdyskäytävä (11083001)

Industrial protocol gateway that bridges Modbus RTU serial devices to Modbus TCP networks, enabling seamless integration of legacy equipment into modern Ethernet-based control systems. Its rugged DIN-rail housing and wide operating temperature range make it suitable for demanding automation environments.

Advantages

• Converts Modbus RTU (RS-232/RS-485) to Modbus TCP with full transparency
• Supports up to 16 simultaneous Modbus TCP clients
• Configurable via web interface or Windows utility
• Robust metal and plastic housing with IP20 protection
• Wide power input range (10–30 VDC) for flexible installation

Suitable for

• Connecting legacy Modbus RTU sensors, meters, and PLCs to Ethernet SCADA systems
• Industrial automation and building management systems
• Retrofitting existing serial networks to TCP/IP without replacing devices
• DIN-rail control cabinets in factories, utilities, and process plants
