Machine Information is Clearer with the Eaton RMQ-Titan Advanced Indicator
When it comes to machine operation, having the right information available at the right time can make a real difference. Whether it’s checking production progress, monitoring a process value or identifying a fault, clear visual feedback helps operators to respond quickly and keep production moving.
That’s where the Eaton RMQ-Titan Advanced Indicator comes in. Going far beyond the capabilities of a standard 22.5mm indicator, showing exactly what is going on.
Part of Eaton’s established RMQ-Titan range, this versatile indicator provides a simple way to bring more information directly to the machine, without a full HMI. Surprisingly, it fits into a standard 22.5 mm mounting hole, making it easy to incorporate into new machine designs or retrofit into existing equipment.
One Indicator, Loads of Possibilities
The RMQ-Titan Advanced Indicator can be configured to create up to 24 different visual displays, combining colours, text, graphics and sensor data.
This means machine builders can tailor the information shown to suit the application. Operators could, for example, see:
- Machine or process status
- Production quantities and task counts
- Temperature, pressure or weight values
- Filling levels
- Process steps
- Error or maintenance messages
The indicator can also handle forward and reverse counting without a PLC, making it particularly useful for applications such as packaging, filling and stacking.
Put Information Where Your Operators Need it
One of the biggest advantages of the Advanced Indicator is its flexibility. Rather than relying on information being displayed in one central location, it can provide specific information directly at the point where it is needed. For complex machinery, that could mean giving maintenance teams clear status information at different points around the machine, helping to reduce troubleshooting time and improving machine use.
For smaller, less complex machines, it can provide useful information without the need for a dedicated HMI, making it suitable for use on cooling units, mixing machines and packaging equipment.
Built for Your Industrial Environment
The indicator uses the familiar Eaton RMQ-Titan M22 design, so it can sit alongside existing pushbuttons and other control devices for a consistent look across the machine. As you would expect, it's also rugged enough for a wide range of demanding industrial environments.
Simple Configuration
Despite its advanced functionality, configuring the RMQ-Titan Advanced Indicator is designed to be straightforward. Simply download the free Eaton configuration software and connect via a standard USB-C connection to transfer the configuration between a PC and the device.
You don't even need to power up the unit, making it even easier to customise the indicator during machine development and adapt the display to suit individual customer requirements.
A Smarter Way to Display Machine Information
For OEMs and machine builders looking to provide operators with more useful information without unnecessary complexity, the RMQ-Titan Advanced Indicator is a great alternative to traditional indicators and, in some applications, a full HMI.
By bringing real-time process information closer to the operator, it can help improve visibility, support faster fault finding and keep production running smoothly.
