Excellent industrial compatibility due to rugged construction, even when subjected to extreme vibration and shock
High degree of investment protection thanks to assured availability of spare parts for a period of 5 years following the end of active marketing
Excellent component continuity for long-life machine concepts without any new engineering costs
Savings in time and costs due to service-friendly equipment construction:
USB interfaces on the front and rear for quick and easy connection of additional hardware components
High degree of industrial functionality thanks to integral PROFINET interface
Maintenance-free due to absence of rotating components (fan and hard disk)
Highly flexible thanks to expansions (optional) such as PCIe, two RS232/RS485
Minimization of downtimes thanks to high system availability
Efficient self-diagnostics (DiagBase and SIMATIC IPC DiagMonitor)
High reliability and security of an embedded platform
Integral component of Totally Integrated Automation (TIA):
Enhanced productivity, minimization of engineering costs, reduction of lifecycle costs
Supply of ready-to-run complete solutions (the software is preinstalled and preconfigured) for visualization and automation in combination with WinCC RT Advanced and/or CPU1500S Software Controller and WinCC.
