KS vario: New modular control system
|
|
Latest control technology and a comprehensive range of functions for the most varied industrial and scientific
thermal treatment Aplikacje are offered by PMA's newly developed control system. What's more, the technical
and economic adaptability is unrivalled.
With its highly compact and modular design, the system enables 4 to 30 temperature zones to be controlled
independently. For this, the required components - bus coupler, control unit, and an arbitrary number of
I/O modules in different sizes (2, 4, 8, or 16 channels) - are simply plugged together, whereby all
inter-connections are made automatically. This approach makes the controller unusually cost-effective,
and allows it to be adapted precisely to individual tasks. By means of bus coupler modules for Ethernet,
Profibus DP, CANopen, DeviceNet, and Modbus, the system is open for all major industrial field buses.
A dedicated RS 232 interface is provided for convenient, easy configuration and visualization of the multi-loop
controller by means of the BlueControl® Engineering Tool. The fast, adjustable scanning rate per channel loop
not only allows reliable control of very fast loops, but also the direct connection of melt pressure sensors.
Two self-tuning methods and various automatic start-up and monitoring functions are further proof of the
excellent performance provided by this cascadable, stand-alone device.
Apart from the established multi-loop KS 800/KS 816 controllers, PMA thus now offers a highly modular control
system, that can be operated together with all PLC industrial PC makes as a stand-alone unit.
Furthermore, with more than 20 I/O module versions, the highly modular KS vario system can be matched precisely
to every industrial control task.
