Communication Protocols | Industrial Automation Networks | Industry: RS232 (IEC 61158) ▲ Our Base: RS485 + Modbus (IEC 61158) ▲▲ Our Advanced: RS485 + Modbus + EtherCAT (IEC 61158) | Supports multi-protocol systems; Advanced enables real-time control (EtherCAT ≤1ms latency). | Advanced requires specialized training for EtherCAT configuration. |
Durability/Material | Harsh Industrial Environments | Industry: Plastic (IEC 6076-3) ▲ Our Base: Aluminum (IEC 6076-3) ▲▲ Our Advanced: Reinforced Aluminum + IP67 (IEC 60529) | Advanced resists dust/water ingress (IP67: submersion up to 1m). | Base lacks IP rating for extreme conditions. |
Scalability/Modularity | Expandable Automation Systems | Industry: Fixed I/O ▲ Our Base: 4 Expansion Slots (IEC 61131-2) ▲▲ Our Advanced: 8 Slots + Hot-Swappable Modules | Advanced allows seamless upgrades (e.g., adding 4 more I/O modules). | Base limits scalability to predefined slot capacity. |
Software Compatibility | Complex Automation Programming | Industry: Proprietary Tools ▲ Our Base: Delta DIAView ▲▲ Our Advanced: Delta DIAStudio (IEC 61131-3) | Advanced supports advanced diagnostics and IEC-standard programming. | Base lacks tools for advanced analytics (e.g., predictive maintenance). |
Warranty | Long-Term Reliability Needs | Industry: 6 Months ▲ Our Base/Advanced: 1 Year (ISO 19011) | Extended warranty reduces downtime risks (12 months vs. industry 6). | No extended warranty option beyond 1 year. |
Connectivity Options | Multi-Protocol Industrial Networks | Industry: 2 Ports ▲ Our Base: 4 Ports (2 RS485, 1 Ethernet, 1 USB) ▲▲ Our Advanced: 6 Ports + Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11) | Advanced enables wireless monitoring and high-density connections. | Base lacks Wi-Fi for remote access. |
