SIEMENS PLC SIMATIC S7-400 MODULES

Benefit

• The power of the SIEMENS PLC SIMATIC S7-400 is scalable thanks to a graded range of CPUs; the capacity for I/O is almost unlimited.
• The power reserves of the  CPUs enable new functions to be integrated without further hardware investment, e.g. processing of quality data, user-friendly diagnosis, integration into higher-level MES solutions or high-speed communication via bus systems.
• The SIEMENS PLC SIMATIC S7-400 can be structured in a modular way; there is a widely varied range of modules available both for centralized configurations and distributed structures. This results in very cost-effective spare parts handling.
• The configuration of the distributed I/O of the SIEMENS PLC SIMATIC S7-400 can be modified during operation (Configuration in Run). In addition signal modules can be removed and inserted while live (hot swapping). This makes it very easy to expand the system or replace modules in the event of a fault.
• The storage of the complete project data including symbols and comments on the CPU simplifies service and maintenance calls.
• Safety engineering and standard automation can be integrated into a single SIEMENS PLC SIMATIC S7-400 controller; plant availability can be increased through the redundant structure of the SIEMENS PLC SIMATIC S7-400.
• Many of the SIEMENS PLC SIMATIC S7-400 components are also available in a SIPLUS version for external environmental conditions, e.g. extended temperature range (-25?+60°C) and for use where there is aggressive atmosphere/condensation.
• The high-speed backplane bus of SIEMENS PLC SIMATIC S7-400 ensures efficient linking of central I/O modules
