-101 to -104 Protocol Converter Application:

The most common application for the VCL-3030, -101 to -
EMI, EMC, Surge Withstand and other Compliances:
104 Protocol Converter is for augmenting legacy IEC
60870-5-101 RTUs that provide serial -101 data in sub- EN 50081-2 EN 50082-2 IEC 60068-2-29
IEC 61000-4-6 IEC 60068-2-6 IEC 60068-2-2
stations and SCADA data networks. By simply installing a

VCL-3030, -101 to -104 Protocol Converter the existing IEC IEC 60068-2-78 IEC 60068-2-1 IEC 60068-2-14
60870-5-101 RTUs can be upgraded to Ethernet based IEC CISPR 22 / EN55022 Class B
60870-5-104 RTUs without incurring a large capex and (Conducted Emission and Radiated Emission)
without the tiresome task of having to rewire the RTUs IS 9000 (Part II Sec. 1-4, Part III Sec. 1-5, Part IV, Part 14 Sec. 1-3)
that require upgradation. IEC 60870-2-1 IEC 61000-4-5 IEC 61000-4-12
