Multi-input supporting eight measurement types with a single unit
- ● Multi-input allows one device to serve eight roles with a flexible construction supporting multiple channels of varying types
- ● Synchronized measurement with a maximum frequency of 1 MHz
Allows for complex, multi-channel measurements to match diverse measurement applications
Synchronized acquisition with a combination of different units
Connection configuration example: NR-TH08 × 1 unit + ST04 × 1 unit
| Temperature | Strain | 12 ch total |
Synchronized multi-channel acquisition with multiple instances of the same unit connected
Connection configuration example: NR-TH08 × 4 units
| Temperature | 32 ch total |
Compact and lightweight body for exceptional portability
- ● The most compact and lightweight body in its class
Space-saving design that can be installed anywhere, on-site or at a desk
Remote unit dramatically simplifies wiring
Remote units reduce the amount of wiring work.
Measurement units can be placed close to the measurement target, which reduces the wiring distance and greatly shortens the measurement preparation time.
- ● The remote unit reduces wiring work by up to 70%.*
* As investigated by KEYENCE. The actual amount of work required varies depending on the cable length and number of channels.
Connects to remote units
Connect up to 8 remote units
Up to 8 remote units can be connected via 2 branches from the master unit. This enables greater freedom in designing layouts to suit the measurement application and helps reduce the wiring distance.
Max. 100 m 328.1' long-range support
The master unit and remote units can be separated by up to 60 m 196.9', or up to 100 m 328.1' when using multiple remote units.
Environmental resistance, sensor connection unit, and terminal block dramatically simplify wiring
Installable in any environment
KEYENCE environment-resistant remote units are usable in any environment with advanced resistance to temperature, water, shocks, dust, and vibration. With no need to worry about the installation environment, measurement units can be installed as close as possible to the measurement location.
- ● The environment-resistant unit allows for measurement in environments subject to heat, water, shocks, or dust.
- Vibration/shock resistance10 G/100 G
- Cold/heat resistance−40 to +85°C (-40°F to +185°F)
- Water/dust resistanceIP65/IP67
- Outdoors/weather resistanceEnclosure Type 4X
Simplified sensor wiring
With no need for analog output wiring necessary with conventional systems, wiring work can be kept to a minimum. In addition, the Ethernet data collection unit includes a power supply output function, eliminating the need for separate sensor power supplies.
- ● The Ethernet data collection unit can connect to various sensors with a single LAN cable.
Connects to sensors
Simplified wiring terminal block
Thermocouple connectors and push-type terminal blocks are available for high-accuracy temperature measurement units and high-speed analog measurement units.
This reduces the time needed for wiring thermocouple and voltage input cables.
Thermocouple connectors
Just plug in the connector.
Push-type terminal block
Just push in and insert the wire.
Setup in just 10 seconds allows for immediate operation
Initial setup takes just two steps!
Even first-time users can start acquiring data immediately.
- ● Icons designed for easy identification of operations
Step 1
Click [Acquisition Setting].
Step 2
Select a unit and configure the input range settings.
* The time required for configuring settings varies depending on the setting details.
Cursor functionality for easy analysis
Using a cursor makes it possible to check not only the selected A/B cursor values but also various other information, including the maximum, minimum, average, area, and integral values between the cursors.
Simplified data output
Collected data can be output instantly at the click of a button. Data can be output not only as waveform data files but also as CSVs, MDFs, and other formats as desired. Using the Excel Direct Transfer function also makes it possible to display waveforms and transfer data to Excel simultaneously.
Excellent usability
Redundant saving of data provides high reliability
Data can be simultaneously saved to the PC and an SD card in real-time. Saving data to two different destinations helps prevent data from being lost if the connection to the PC is interrupted. Using a battery supply unit also ensures UPS operability to protect data even in the event of a sudden power failure.
Useful functions for embedded applications
-
SNTP client function
Regularly adjust the main unit time to match the SNTP server time for accurate automatic time synchronization.
-
Program register function
Use up to 16 programs with easy external switching between various acquisition setting programs.
-
Various inputs and outputs
Take advantage of 8 outputs and 8 inputs to output judgments and alarm statuses according to measured values.
Advanced connectivity to PLCs
FTP client function
The included FTP client function can be used to periodically transfer data files from the NR to an FTP server. This means that even without a ladder program, data can be transferred for easy data consolidation and linking.
