SIEMENS has released a new controller for high-availability, safe and fault-tolerant applications in the process industry.
The Simatic CPU S7-412-3H is part of the lower performance range of the Simatic-S7-400H family of controllers. It is suitable for applications which require high availabilities of monitoring and closed-loop control of temperatures, liquid levels and emergency power generators.
The device is also suitable for safe, fault-tolerant solutions with maximum safety integrity levels, such as burners.
An optional software package allows safety functions to be added to the controller. Safety functions can be configured by using continuous function charts, either by using the function blocks provided, or with a safety lifecycle tool.
