Schneider Electric has updated its TeSys T advanced motor management system to include the added benefit of Modbus TCP and Ethernet/IP connectivity.
Suitable for the harshest of environments, the TeSys T range offers:
- High-performance multifunction protection
- An operator control unit for reading and modification of parameters
- A PC configuration software to configure TeSys T to suit the requirements of industrial applications
- Connection to the automation system via a communication network
The optional expansion module enables voltage and power measurement and protection functions. It is particularly useful for switchboard manufacturers, contractors and end users in the mining, oil and gas and water segments.
The added connectivity gives users easier integration of a motor management system with PLCs and controllers, while actively supporting energy efficiency and production optimisation strategy. It can be integrated into ModBus, CANopen, DeviceNet, Profibus and ModBus TCP.
In addition to these points, TeSys T with Modbus TCP and EtherNet/IP gives:
- Real-time exchange: Enhanced bandwidth, Quality-of-Service message priority, and built-in web pages support data access, control, and other functions
- Superior reliability: Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) for fast failure recovery, broadcast storm protection to prevent oversaturation of available network bandwidth
- Dual Ethernet ports: Fast 100 Mbps peer-to-peer communication, simple daisy-chain connections, and support for redundant architectures
