Modular system structure
The decades of experience of Feller Engineering in the field of temperature control technology forms the basis for the FP1600 multi-circuit control system. Constantly further developed by customer requirements, a powerful system was created that can be adapted to the most varied applications due to its modularity.
To do this, depending on the objective of the task, different central units and input and output modules are available that are easily strung together on a DIN rail with bus adapters.
Communication
The core of each application is the central unit with processor for up to 128 control circuits and communication interfaces for higher level systems. The system offers as standard RS485 and Ethernet to network several controllers, for remote diagnosis via the integrated web server or to connect to the higher level SCADA system, Visual Fecon, for easy configuration and display.
Another version also has a real time Ethernet interface with PROFINET and Sercos III protocols. This enable multi-channel controllers to be connected to automation systems.
A variety of modules
The list of available modules shows the variety of the control system. The system can be configured individually with the following click-on modules:
- 16x thermal components
- 16x PT100 2L
- 8x PT100 3/4L
- 16x 0-10V or 0/4-20mA analogue signals
- 32x 24VDC inputs or outputs
- Heating current monitoring
- Strain gauge sensors
Powerful control functions
The system can be used in many different applications due to the powerful control functions. The most important functions are:
- Control parameters self-optimised
- Short-circuit resistant outputs to control solid state relays
- Heating current monitoring
- Group heating
- Energy-saving heating
- Limiter function
- Group switching of the outputs
- Potential-free alarm outputs
- Web server for remote diagnosis
- Event logging on SD card
