Modicon M580-EPA controller & Safety PLC
Modicon M580-EPA controller & Safety PLC
Product Description
Ethernet Programmable Automation & Safety PLC for process, high availability & safety stand-alone solutions
Part of Modicon
Modicon M580 ePAC is the controller which can help hybrid manufacturers achieve better, measurable*, earlier ROI and Up to 100% returns on their project investments in less than three months.
Features
- Openness and transparency: native Ethernet capabilities with EtherNet/IP and Modbus TCP, as well as the large scope of Fieldbus supported protocols: AS-i, CANopen, PROFIBUS DP, and Remote Terminal Unit protocols like DNP3 or IEC104.
- Connectivity: easy integration of field and third-party devices through standard FDT technology.
- Smart engineering: EcoStruxure Control Expert software platform allows to save engineering and commissioning time through simulation tool, predefined libraries, and code checking.
- Improve your code through EcoStruxure Control Expert including verification, converter (including non-SE PLC), documentation, and monitoring.
- Easy and continuous operations thanks to CCOTF (Change Configuration On the Fly) functions, and online devices.
- High availability scalable and fault-tolerant architecture: redundant HSBY processor, power supplies, networks, and Scada (later redundant RIO bus based on redundant CRA).
- Reliability and robustness based on proven X80 I/O platform.
- Optimized maintenance with auto-diagnostics embedded in X80 modules, FDR functions, preventive maintenance features inside redundant power supplies, and Maintenance Advisor tool.
Benefits
- Save up to 3 weeks on a 3-month project resulting in $2 million of extra production at launch.
- Manage operating risks and save an average of >US$1.25 million annually in related costs with certified inherent cybersecurity built into the controller.
- Improve process efficiency through 5x faster scan time, and gain up to US$2 million annually for a typical high-volume manufacturing plant thanks to the latest processing technologies.
- The Modicon M580 safety controller is the only PAC in the marketplace that offers 100% ROI within three months of implementation.
