ACE3600 RTU Construction The ACE3600 RTU is a universal device that may serve as an RTU, a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), or as the system FEP. It is placed at the system's field sites to collect data from on-site sensors, add data from off-site sources, and use this data aggregate to make decisions regarding how some process is operating. The RTU may make changes to the local process; messages may be initiated that send data elsewhere to influence the operation of off-site equipment or to advise the SCADA Manager of some important change. The ACE3600 is available in various structures: ƒ Frame which can accommodate a varied number and type of modules ƒ Metal chassis which accommodates the frame, and optional radios, backup battery and communication interfaces ƒ Protective housing which accommodates the frame, and optional radios, backup battery and communication interfaces (suitable for outdoor installation) The ACE3600 frame consists of the following elements: ƒ Plastic slots which accommodate the power supply, CPU and I/O modules, and backplane bus motherboard ƒ Mounting plate for attaching the plastic slots together and mounting the frame on a wall ƒ Backplane bus motherboard which connects the modules to each other via the signal buses and connects the modules with operating voltages ƒ Power junction box for AC or DC power source and ground connections A frame can be mounted on the wall or installed in a 19" rack or customer enclosure. 3

ACE3600 RTU Construction
The ACE3600 RTU is a universal device that may serve as an RTU, a Programmable
Logic Controller (PLC), or as the system FEP. It is placed at the system’s field sites to
collect data from on-site sensors, add data from off-site sources, and use this data
aggregate to make decisions regarding how some process is operating. The RTU may
make changes to the local process; messages may be initiated that send data elsewhere to
influence the operation of off-site equipment or to advise the SCADA Manager of some
important change.
The ACE3600 is available in various structures:
±
Frame which can accommodate a varied number and type of modules
±
Metal chassis which accommodates the frame, and optional radios, backup battery
and communication interfaces
±
Protective housing which accommodates the frame, and optional radios, backup
battery and communication interfaces (suitable for outdoor installation)
The ACE3600 frame consists of the following elements:
±
Plastic slots which accommodate the power supply, CPU and I/O modules, and
backplane bus motherboard
±
Mounting plate for attaching the plastic slots together and mounting the frame on
a wall
±
Backplane bus motherboard which connects the modules to each other via the
signal buses and connects the modules with operating voltages
±
Power junction box for AC or DC power source and ground connections
A frame can be mounted on the wall or installed in a 19" rack or customer enclosure.
