Easily panel mount the I/O and Communication capabilities of Red Lion’s Graphite® platform using rugged USB modular expansion racks. Rugged Graphite expansion racks allow for easy back-of-cabinet mounting and support for additional plug-in modules without extensive wiring. These expansion racks work with the Graphite platform to provide a scalable solution that enables organizations to connect, monitor and control more industrial processes. Standard racks mate directly to the wide rack through a connector that provides power and Communication to all the modules. One wide rack and three standard racks can be installed together with each Graphite HMI or controller for a maximum of twenty modules per tethered connection.
