Evocon solution Architecture overview
Evocon devices are built to suit the needs of different types of production. Using standard M12 connectors on inputs makes collecting data from one line or separate production lines easy to set up.
It can be powered from a wall outlet using a 110/230V AC to 24V DC power supply provided with the device. It is also possible to use an existing 24V DC power source. In this case, use the barrel connector from the power supply. The centre of the connector is positive 24V DC and the outer ring is 0V.
The case of the Evocon device is made of anodized aluminium and it weighs 250g and measures 147mm x 57mm x 28mm.

** Electrical isolation between input ground and device ground can be achieved by removing an internal jumper.
*** Evocon IIoT Device 3 does not support 5GHz WiFi. For safe operation, the device must be installed in an open location ensuring that no individual is closer than 5 cm to the antenna for a continuous period of 6 minutes or longer.
