Revolution Pi

BRE Industrial Products supplies the Revolution Pi platform to help industry build flexible control, monitoring, and IIoT systems. Our engineers and automation specialists rely on practical fieldwork. With deep experience in real‑world industrial automation environments, we help clients select the right modules and configurations for their needs – whether the focus is panel space, application or process requirements, or digital connectivity.

Revolution Pi Built for Industrial Automation

Revolution Pi gives industrial teams a modular, open platform built on an industrialised Raspberry Pi foundation. It fits neatly into control panels, supports a wide range of expansion modules, and delivers the flexibility needed for modern automation—without the cost and rigidity of traditional PLC hardware.

Each Rev Pi unit is engineered for reliable operation in demanding environments, offering multiple I/O configurations, fieldbus connectivity, and open‑source development options. Beyond typical factory and process automation, Revolution Pi is also widely used for ERP integration, energy and utilities monitoring, solar and renewable systems, and broader IIoT data acquisition. This versatility makes it a powerful choice for organisations seeking a robust, adaptable automation platform.

 

Base Modules


Base units act as the core of every setup. They use a
Raspberry Pi compute Module to
run logic, monitoring, communication, and local applications required for IIoT and automation tasks.

Expansion Modules


Expansion units extend your system with digital inputs, digital outputs, analog channels, or serial interfaces. This helps match the layout of conveyors, batching systems, packaging lines, and other equipment.

Gateways and Communication Modules


Factories use these modules to link Revolution Pi installations to SCADA, plant networks, or upstream software. Fieldbus and Ethernet options give teams flexible integration across sites.

Why Revolution Pi Matters for Industry

Industrial plants need systems that are simple to configure, easy to scale, and dependable over long operating hours. Revolution Pi helps meet these needs by combining open-source development with industrial hardware.
 

Flexible Development

Teams familiar with Linux, Python, Node-RED, CODESYS, or similar tools can begin working quickly. This is helpful for users comparing a compact device to a Raspberry Pi PLCsetup.
 

Suitable for Monitoring and Control

Revolution Pi works well for equipment dashboards, machine monitoring, energy tracking, and small automation jobs where a full PLC may not be required.
 

Cost-Effective for Expansion Work

Adding new modules is straightforward. This helps sites scale systems step by step, from small trials to broader digital upgrades.

Industries Using Revolution Pi

Industries that want accessible automation and IIoT tools rely on Revolution Pi for modular and open-source setups.

Applications include:

  • Food & Beverage
  • Manufacturing & Engineering
  • Pharmaceuticals & Life Sciences
  • Waste & Water Treatment
  • Logistics & Packaging
  • Recycling & Materials Recovery

Whether your application involves machines, environmental data, conveyors, or monitoring events, Revolution Pi provides a practical foundation for digital monitoring and control. Rev Pi builds on the same idea but with hardware meant for industrial panels and continuous operation.

FAQs

How is Revolution Pi different from a regular Raspberry Pi computer?

A standard consumer-grade Raspberry Pi is only suitable for hobby use or general computing. The Revolution Pi is built for industrial use, featuring a rugged DIN‑rail housing, 24 VDC industrial power input, durable eMMC storage instead of microSD cards, and EMC‑tested protection for continuous operation in harsh environments. It supports modular industrial I/O with galvanic isolation, complies with standards such as EN 61131‑2, and runs a real‑time‑capable Linux OS, making it far more reliable and suitable for automation, monitoring, and IIoT applications in industry.

Can Revolution Pi replace a traditional PLC?

For small to medium tasks, yes. Many sites use Revolution Pi for monitoring, basic control, and communication between equipment.

Why choose Revolution Pi over other industrial PCs?

It offers modularity, open-source flexibility, lower cost, and straightforward development. This makes it practical for pilot projects and long-term upgrades.

Can Revolution Pi connect to existing industrial equipment and sensors?

Yes. Expansion modules support digital I/O, analog I/O, serial lines, industrial protocols, and gateways.

What programming languages and operating systems are supported by Revolution Pi?

Linux-based systems, Python, Node-RED, CODESYS, and other commonly used open-source tools.

Do you provide technical support for Revolution Pi?

Yes. BRE Services supports installation, configuration, and equipment integration.

Do you offer Australia-wide delivery for all Revolution Pi base modules and expansion modules?

Yes. Delivery is available nationwide.
