Honeywell Zellweger IR-148 to BACnet / Modbus / SNMP   is highly powerful, superior, completely configurable and productive Building & Industrial Automation gateway for integrators to effortlessly interface devices to networks in commercial buildings and industrial plants.

The Gateway model FPC-N54B-181 supports Honeywell Zellweger IR-148, BACnet, Modbus and SNMP protocols. It is a Bi-directional Converter that can be configured as a Passive Client on Honeywell Zellweger IR-148  side and a Server/Client on BACnet / Modbus / SNMP protocol interface.

When configured as a Honeywell Zellweger IR-148  Passive client, the gateway can read data from your Honeywell Zellweger IR-148  and publish it as BACnet / Modbus / SNMP data. Also, it can write commands sent from the BACnet / Modbus / SNMP side to the Honeywell Zellweger IR-148 like Gas Value Message, Trouble Message, Alarm Message etc.

When configured as a BACnet / Modbus / SNMP client, the gateway can read data from your BACnet / Modbus /SNMP devices and publish it as Honeywell Zellweger IR-148  type data. Also, it can write commands sent from the Honeywell Zellweger IR-148  side to the BACnet / Modbus / SNMP devices.

The gateway can be configured to behave as a server on BACnet / Modbus /SNMP interfaces. This mode is useful when data exchange is required between a Honeywell Zellweger IR-148 passive client (for eg.  Alarm or Trouble, Gas Value, Gas Value Age, Gas Units, etc.) and a BACnet / Modbus / SNMP client (for eg. a Building Management System).

The gateway can be configured to behave as a passive client on  Honeywell Zellweger IR-148  and an active client on BACnet / Modbus / SNMP interfaces.

These gateways have benefitted system integrators worldwide with its powerful line of gateways. Additionally, this gateway runs the same protocol conversion software on a productive and cost-effective platform backed by the experience, engineering expertise and technically proven support that integrators have come to expect from Honeywell Zellweger IR-148  to BACnet / Modbus / SNMP Converter.

  • Physical Dimension of this gateway is 4×1.1×2.7 Inches (H x W x D) and it weighs up to 0.2 Kg.
  • This gateway supports 1 x RS-485 Port, 1 x RS-232 Port and 1 x Ethernet Port.

Honewell Zellweger IR-148 Datasheet

Scenario:

Scenario 1

  • On a site there were Honeywell Infrared Gas Detector that provides data output on InfraTox Protocol.
  • The site has a building management system on BACnet /Modbus / SNMP that needs the Fire Panel data like  Gas value, Gas unit, Alarm-Trouble, etc. from the Honeywell Infrared Gas Detector .
  • Since the Honeywell Infrared Gas Detector provide data output on InfraTox Protocol and the building management system understands BACnet / Modbus / SNMP Protocols, a direct data exchange is not possible.

Solution:

The devices cannot directly communicate with each other as they are not on the same protocol. You need something that will convert data from BACnet / Modbus / SNMP to InfraTox and vice versa.

ProtoConvert’s Honewell Zellweger IR-148 to BACnet / Modbus / SNMP Converter will be an excellent solution for this requirement. The gateway reads data from the Honeywell Infrared Gas Detector. It caches this data internally and then provides it on BACnet / Modbus / SNMP when requested from the Building Management System.
