Single Pair Ethernet (SPE) communication physics optimized for withdrawable
design
- Scalable
functionality thanks to licensable device features
Siemens has launched SIMOCODE M-CP, an efficient and
future-proof motor management product series, especially tailored for motor
control centers (MCC). The new product series complements the existing SIMOCODE
portfolio and is designed to optimally meet the requirements of motor control
centers. SIMOCODE M-CP introduces a new standard in the industry with its
compact design, advanced functionality, and compatibility with Ethernet-based
communication. In the future, SIMOCODE M-CP can be adapted to different operational
requirements by purchasing licenses that enable additional functions depending
on the application. Motor control centers are designed to efficiently
distribute power to motors, enable precise control and monitoring, and offer
protection against overloads, short circuits, and other electrical faults. The
industries in which motor control centers are used range from chemicals,
tunnels and infrastructure, pulp and paper, mining and steel to water and
wastewater.
- Complete data transparency down to the field level
- Field-level load feeders are seamlessly integrated into the automation system
- Detection of faults, deviations, and maintenance requirements facilitates diagnosis and enables preventive maintenance
With the SIRIUS 3RC7 intelligent link module,
Siemens now offers a quick and easy way to gain complete data transparency down
to the field level. The plug-and-play expansion module combines information
technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) with minimal installation and
commissioning effort. This means that the data available at the load feeders
can be used efficiently. As part of the leading automation concept Totally
Integrated Automation (TIA) from Siemens, the SIRIUS 3RC7 intelligent link
modules are seamlessly integrated into the existing automation environment.
SIRIUS 3RC7 is part of the SIRIUS modular system, the comprehensive portfolio
for industrial controls.
