(ABB: Zurich) -- ABB, a technology leader in electrification and automation, is expanding its XIO series of remote input/output controllers to provide customers with more options to meet the digital connectivity challenges of today’s oil and gas industry.

The extended XIO series uses a new Ethernet-to-serial pass-through application to provide real-time monitoring and control, improve data accessibility, and enhance data integrity. The new XIO series extends site automation abilities, helping to increase the efficiency of oil and gas operations.

The next evolution in smart remote I/O, the ABB XIO series is an extended range of all-in-one devices to monitor, control, and manage oil and gas flow applications. The ABB XIO-08, ABB XIO-04 and ABB XIO-00 each operate as an extension to the ABB Remote Module Controller (RMC) family, providing enhanced I/O capacity and increasing overall wellhead operational efficiency. The series offers up to eight channels for customers to choose the XIO that meets their site needs.

ABB XIO sets new standards for upstream oil and gas and other applications.
