Abstract
The invention relates to a sensor box (10) for process-engineering and/or mechanical-engineering systems with a control unit and a plurality of interfaces (11) connected to the control unit, wherein the plurality of interfaces (11) can be connected or are connected to a corresponding number of cables or transmitting and receiving devices in order to establish a communicative connection to corresponding sensors (13) connected to different functional points of a process-engineering and/or mechanical-engineering system (12), and the control unit is configured to request corresponding measurements from the plurality of sensors (13) via the plurality of interfaces (11).
Claims10
A sensor box (10) for process-engineering and/or mechanical-engineering systems, wherein the sensor box has at least one control unit,
- characterized in that
- the sensor box (10) has a plurality of interfaces (11) connected to the control unit, which interfaces can be connected or are connected to a corresponding number of cables or transmitting and receiving devices in order to establish a communicative connection to corresponding sensors (13) connected to different functional points of a process-engineering and/or mechanical-engineering system (12), and the control unit is configured to request corresponding measurements of the plurality of sensors (13) via the plurality of interfaces (11).
