The Invensys Eurotherm 6180A-U12 is a 12-channel paperless graphic recorder engineered for industrial process monitoring and secure data acquisition in regulated environments. Built around a 12.1″ XGA color touchscreen, it delivers simultaneous measurement across configurable universal inputs with 125 ms total sample rate capability. The unit stores data in tamper-resistant binary format with internal Flash memory expandable to 96 MB, plus removable media and network archiving options. Ethernet TCP/IP, Modbus RTU/TCP, EtherNet/IP, and SFTP connectivity enable seamless integration into modern control and data systems. Security architecture includes 21 CFR Part 11 compliance features—audit trails, electronic signatures, role-based access control, and time synchronization via SNTP—making it suitable for pharmaceutical, aerospace, automotive, and food & beverage applications where data integrity and regulatory traceability are non-negotiable.
