System Architecture

• Dual redundant serial ring bus

• Automatic data-rerouting for continuous operability even after bus or Local Processing Unit (LPU) failure

• Short circuits also in the PowerBus can be countered while maintaining the operability of the remaining components

• Four versatile inputs, configurable as standard 4-20mA or digital inputs to connect any kind of analog or digital input source

Safety concept

• Two identical cabinets (master &slave), including all associated input and output modules, operate in parallel and with the same software

• A communication between the cabinets monitors all activities of the two cabinets/PLCs

• In case of failure of the master cabinet/PLC, the slave cabinet takes over control via Ring Bus

• Triple input for the power supply (MSB,ESB and UPS)
