Description
The right device for any automation task
Now more than ever, competitive control and visualization solutions must be complete, scalable and tailored to the application at hand. Flexible system expansion is extremely important in machine manufacturing. For this reason, intelligent all-in-one solutions that offer users the highest level of freedom with regard to control topology are important components for automation. Cost-effective solutions by adapting both hardware and software to the respective application.
When designing the Power Panel 500, a great deal of attention was given to minimizing installation depth so that it can also be used in tight spaces, panels ranging from 5.7″ VGA to 15″ XGA displays with intuitive touch screen and function keys. Gigabit Ethernet ensures high-speed communication over the plant network. Additional fieldbus interfaces or another gigabit Ethernet interface can also be added if needed.
A complete solution with the highest degree of flexibility
If expansions are necessary, remote I/O modules and drives can be easily connected using modular fieldbus interfaces. If needed, Power Panel devices can also be expanded with POWERLINK, CAN, PROFIBUS DP or other fieldbus interfaces. This allows additional topologies to be implemented at a later date without problems.
