German PLC manufacturer offers low cost, fieldbus and I/O expansion modules with mid-range specifications for less demanding automation systems
As part of its System 200V range, VIPA the German designer and manufacturer of modular automation solutions offer an alternative range of lower cost fieldbus and I/O expansion modules. Known as the ECOnomical range, these modules have been engineered to provide mid-range specifications which are often required by smaller and more straightforward centralised automation applications.
The ECOnomical range includes Profibus-DP and CANopen slave modules, each with potential for eight expansion modules. For I/O expansion, the range covers 8 and 16 channel digital input and output units, and 4 channel/12-bit analog input and output units with both +/- 10 V and 4-20 mA configuration.
Cost savings of up to 50% can be achieved when comparing these modules with full-featured System 200V alternatives and all modules can be freely mixed to optimise costs in more complex systems.
The compact and modular VIPA System 200V control system has programming options for Siemens Step®7, an extensive range of expansion modules and includes a wide choice of master and slave fieldbus options. It is a well matched and scaleable PLC solution, aimed at small to medium, centralised or decentralised automation applications.
