GRV-EPIC-CHS4

DESCRIPTION

All groov EPIC® I/O mounting chassis are designed to hold an
intelligent groov EPIC processor and power supply, with models
available that can also hold 0, 4, 8, or 16 groov I/O modules.

The GRV-EPIC-CHS4, GRV-EPIC-CHS8, and GRV-EPIC-CHS16 can
hold a mix of groov analog, discrete, and serial I/O modules, because
all modules have the same footprint. Analog and discrete modules
can be placed in any module position on the chassis. Serial modules
can be placed in any of the first four positions and are directly
connected to the groov EPIC processor via the bus on the chassis.

Field devices are wired directly to the top-mounted connectors on the
modules. The module and chassis design allows each module to pivot
into a specific mounting position on the chassis.

The GRV-EPIC-CHS0 mounts the processor and power supply only
(no I/O modules) and is ideal for applications where I/O is not needed
and cabinet space is at a premium.

A Complete I/O Unit Where You Need It

With a GRV-EPIC-CHS4, GRV-EPIC-CHS8, or GRV-EPIC-CHS16, you can
have a powerful I/O unit wherever you need it. From small
applications in a limited physical space, to larger applications with
complex requirements, the three models are designed to meet a large
range of application requirements and physical space limitations.

Beyond a PLC – Processing Power at the Edge

With a GRV-EPIC-CHS0, you can put a groov EPIC processor
(GRV-EPIC-PR1) in tough, industrial locations where typical computers
or networking equipment may not be able to operate. The processor
can provide the computing power and networking connectivity you
need to modernize and extend your applications and systems. To
learn more about the capabilities of the groov EPIC processor, see

groov EPIC Processor Data Sheet (form 2245).

Agency Approvals and Compliance

All groov power supplies, voltage converters, pass-through power
adapters, I/O modules, and processors are UL/cUL listed and
compliant with the ATEX, Low Voltage, and EMC CE directives. Each
module is factory tested twice before shipment and most modules
are guaranteed for life.
