June 16, 2015 - Siemens enhances Simatic S7-410 controller with coatings for operation in toxic atmospheres, increased fault tolerance of the redundant system, and extending the ambient temperature range up to 70C, which allows users to deploy the Simatic PCS 7 controller in harsh environments, such as in oil and gas applications.
The Simatic S7-410 controller is an integral part of the Simatic PCS 7 process control system that applies a uniform hardware and software environment for very small systems of 100 I/Os up to large-scale plants of more than 100,000 inputs/outputs. The Simatic S7-410 controller is available in a standard version as well as in fault-tolerant and fail-safe versions. The device therefore meets all the requirements of the process industry, including the chemical, glass, metal, food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, solar, oil & gas industries as well as the water and wastewater sectors.
