Pump control keeps water supply constant
If the active master PLC processor fails for any reason, the standby PLC processor takes control immediately with a "bumpless" changeover.
The CPX terminal assures optimised linking to the control concept via a wide range of fieldbuses, including CC-Link.
Bus connection is extremely easy via a terminal strip with IP20 protection class, sub-D connector, T-distributor and connection of an incoming and an outgoing bus cable.
Integrated interfaces are with RS485 transmission technology.
CC-Link enables maximum-speed communication at the control and fieldbus levels between data and field devices such as control systems, sensors or actuators with up to 65 stations and without using repeaters.
The extremely short response times are the result of uncomplicated and effective protocols. Request a free brochure from CC-Link Partner Association ...
