Description
E+PLC400 is a modular PLC that was specifically developed to comply with strict regulations in heat treatment and other demanding industries. The open platform according to industry standard IEC61131-3 CODESYS® and the unique, integrated programming and visualization environment significantly minimize the configuration effort. Includes extended function block libraries for:
- Applications of heat treatment
- Control and data collection
- “OEM Security” and customization
The devices contain the unique Eurotherm PID control functions for faster commissioning and more precise control of the overall process. The functions also make it easier to comply with legal regulations and end customer requirements. Features include:
- 6 PID sets for control at different setpoints
- Intelligent self-optimization for optimal control and commissioning
- Special cutback functions to avoid overshoots
The data management included in E+PLC400 helps our customers comply with strict data storage regulations:
- Forgery-proof data format .uhh (a better alternative to changeable .csv files in other PLCs)
Ethernet communication offers connection to IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) and Industry 4.0 technologies.
To support operational efficiency, E+PLC400 features an embedded web server for remote viewing on mobile devices.
