Redundant Power without the hassle - Acromag DIN Rail Power Bus for Ethernet I/O

Acromag's TT330 series of 4-wire process transmitters and Busworks XT Ethernet I/O modules boast options for bussed and redundant power connections.

These I/O modules accept power through the terminal block and/or a DIN rail bus connector. This allows for easy installation of a redundant backup power supply.

You can also simplify your power wiring by snapping multiple units together along the DIN rail bus to conveniently share a single power supply. (See image below)
