What is an industrial RTU and how does it work in automation control? 

An industrial RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) is a control system device used to interface remote sensors and actuators with a central SCADA or PLC system. IPD supplies embedded RTU controllers, field I/O RTUs, and distributed control RTUs for reliable monitoring and automation of critical operations.

What’s the difference between PLCs and RTUs?

PLCs are typically used for high-speed, deterministic industrial control within a facility, while RTUs support remote monitoring and control across wide areas. RTU and PLC integration is common in complex automation and RTU control systems. 

What types of I/O modules are used in industrial controllers and RTUs?

Field I/O RTU and PLC I/O expansion modules include digital, analogue, temperature, and communication modules. These allow industrial programmable logic controllers to adapt to varying control requirements and support distributed control RTU designs.
