Siemens launches intelligent link module to boost industrial automation data transparency
SIRIUS 3RC7 Intelligent Link Modules
“Transparency down to field level is
becoming increasingly important. However, many devices are not connected to the
automation system, which means important data is missing. By digitalizing the
field level, we are creating a new dimension of transparency and enabling
data-driven decisions,” said Andreas Matthé, CEO of Electrical Products at
Siemens Smart Infrastructure.
A variety of load feeder parameters can be
collected and evaluated directly, including voltage, current, phase imbalance,
number of overload trips, and much more. The integrated diagnostic functions
help detect and correct faults more quickly. Among other things, the data can
be used for Senseye Predictive Maintenance, Siemens’ comprehensive solution for
predictive maintenance. It uses artificial intelligence, for example to examine
current fluctuations for anomalies that indicate a defect. This significantly
increases the planning reliability for maintenance, availability, and
cost-effectiveness of the system.
Thanks to full integration in TIA, users receive up-to-date status information in their operating software. In addition, when using special apps such as Node-RED, they have access to a dashboard to quickly identify bottlenecks. This prevents downtime and increases the availability of the system.
The SIRIUS 3RC7 intelligent link modules integrate perfectly into the compact SIMATIC ET 200SP I/O system as well as any other common automation system. Up to 16 load feeders can be connected per BA-Send module bus adapter in order to benefit from the simple commissioning, individual scalability, and maximum flexibility offered by the SIMATIC ET 200SP.
In conjunction with SIRIUS switchgear and the compact SIMATIC ET 200SP I/O system for control cabinets, SIRIUS 3RC7 intelligent link modules ensure reliable and efficient data exchange between OT and IT. The addition of the new SIRIUS 3RC7 intelligent link module to the existing SIRIUS portfolio (modular system) has created a new, enhanced product: the SIRIUS Intelligent Load Feeder. The SIRIUS Intelligent Load Feeder is a pre-assembled digital feeder consisting of a SIRIUS 3RV2 circuit breaker, a SIRIUS 3RT2 contactor, and the intelligent link module.
