FCD3245-01
FCD3245-01 Electricity Market Data Logger
The Fidar Electronics FCD3245-01 sends power-plant site temperature and humidity to the electricity market system, with four 4–20 mA outputs for the plant DCS.
Three temperature inputs and one humidity input
Direct upload to the electricity market system
Four 4–20 mA outputs for the plant DCS
Shows upload status and the system's replies- 3.5-inch display with live input values
Industrial protocols allow long sensor cable runs
OTA updates to follow protocol changes
Programmable output relay for alarms
The FCD3245-01 is a four-channel logger — three temperature inputs and one humidity input — built to report power-plant site conditions to the electricity market system. Besides the network upload it provides four 4–20 mA outputs so the same values are recorded in the plant DCS. Its 3.5-inch display shows the inputs with their applied mapping alongside the upload status and the system's own replies, and OTA updates keep it aligned with protocol changes.
