Concept 04: HMI/PLC with integrated SmartWire-DT – Fieldbus – Remote I/O

The touch display PLC replaces the central PLC. A gateway to the fieldbus is no longer required, the SmartWire-DT line is connected directly to the HMI/PLC. Operating data from the motor feeders, such as motor current, thermal motor load, switching states and trip indications are transferred to the HMI/PLC via SmartWire-DT. Servo drives, frequency inverters and also Eaton hydraulic components are integrated via standard fieldbuses. The flexible architecture reduces both downtimes and retrofitting times.
