Why Choose Modicon Quantum?<\/h2>\n

The Modicon Quantum<\/a> series is manufactured by Schneider Electric<\/a> and is a PLC system<\/a> for process applications and high availability solutions. The quantum series provides well-balanced CPU\u2019s that are able to provide leading performance from Boolean to floating point instruction. The CPUs<\/a> have 5 IEC languages as standard, which include LD, ST, FBD, SFC, and IL the Modicon LL984 language to facilitate installed base migration. Schneider Electric\u2019s Quantum CPUs are able to work at a high-level multitasking, which is aided by their memory capacity of up to 7 Mb using PCMCIA extensions. These PLCs are specially shaped for process control applications with conformally coated modules, and an extensive catalog of partner modules which allows them to be used in a range of environments. In order to manage safety integrated systems, safety processors and I\/O modules help to complete the series. There are also options for plug and play high-performance Hot-Standby solutions with LCD keypad for local monitoring for ease of use. These Hot-Standby solutions have numerous built-in ports, which include a USB port, Ethernet TCP\/IP port with a Web server, Modbus Plus and at least one Modbus serial port on the front panel. The Modicon Quantum<\/a> series utilizes in-rack connectivity to Profibus-DP<\/a> and an embedded Ethernet router for easy communications. If you need to increase the availability of your architecture the CRA and CRP Quantum Ethernet I\/O modules<\/a> (QEIO) are available. Thanks to the Modicon X80 drops, expand your architecture and integrate easily your distributed devices on the same network, such as HMI, variable speed drives, I\/O islands and more.<\/p>\n

There are many benefits to using the Modicon Quantum series over other similar PLC<\/a> systems available in the market today. The Quantum series offers a large range of processors which are ideal for complex processes. The power of its processors results in optimum cycle times while integrating ever more communications functions, diagnostics, memory flexibility, and data storage. The Quantum Safety system is also now available, certified TUV Rheinland, which is simple to use and ready to be integrated into your automated system. The Quantum series has more flexibility which allows you to choose the best topology, daisy chain loop, ring, star, bus, etc. for the design of your Ethernet architecture. This flexibility allows for higher availability, which is aided by the Hot-standby CPUs and daisy chain loop topology which improve the availability of your process. In the case of cable fails, the recovery time is less than 50 ms for an entire Quantum Ethernet I\/O architecture. The applications of the Modicon Quantum<\/a> PLCs<\/a> include process control, safety, infrastructure and many more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
