Version 9 of the Simatic PCS 7 process control system supports the Industrial Ethernet standard Profinet with two new distributed I/O lines for greater digitalisation right down to the field level. The I/O system Simatic ET 200SP HA allows the properties of Profinet to be used to optimum effect in achieving this goal. Specifically aimed at the process industries, the I/O line is designed for high availability and can be used directly in the field up to Ex zone 2. Its protective coating and an extended operating temperature range of -40 to +70 °C allow the I/O system to be used in many cases without the need for additional air conditioning.
The Simatic Compact Field Unit (CFU) opens up new scope for the integration of field devices. The field distributor connected over Profinet is able to overcome the restrictions of conventional I/O concept. If a new field device has to be connected, for instance, the Simatic CFU automatically initialises the connected device and integrates it quickly and simply into the process control system. Version 9.0 of the Simatic PCS 7 also comes with extensive software innovations offering greater productivity and flexibility for plant operators and maintenance personnel.
