Overview

What this product is built to monitor

The PowerPACK PRO5 intelligent adapter is uniquely designed to provide additional power budget and multiple communication methods to drive Pyxis inline sensors to a receiving microprocessor controller or PLC with limited power supply. This auxiliary adapter has a built-in power supply with 30-Watt capability and supports up to five Pyxis sensors connected simultaneously.

The PowerPACK Pro-5 offers multiple communication platforms in both wireless and wired format to fit any application need. The wireless communication methods include Bluetooth® 5.0, LoRa and Wi-Fi and the wired communication methods include Ethernet, RS-485, 4-20mA output and USB-C. Users can choose the appropriate communication method according to the distance and application need. The PowerPACK Pro-5 is provided with a 2.4-inch display allowing users to configure any desired communication parameter as well as offering sensor reading or connection to the uPyxis 2.0 mobile or desktop apps.

The PowerPACK Pro-5 intelligent adapter can be utilized in 100VAC to 240VAC power format, with direct outlet plug-in design. Each input is specifically designed for direct connection to standard (7-Pin) Pyxis inline sensors and output is designed to be connected to the CS-FNS-2.6P (6-Pin) flying lead cable provided with the PowerPACK Pro-5 unit, then terminated to the receiving controller (see PowerPACK Pro-5 Cable Interface section for details). Conversion adapters for Pyxis 8-Pin sensors are also available allowing this device to be used with all Pyxis sensor formats.
