SIMATIC S7-400:
The powerful controller for system solutions in the
manufacturing and process industries
Within the controller family, the SIMATIC S7-400 is designed for
system solutions in the manufacturing and process automation
industry.
• The modularly designed S7-400H can be flexibly adapted to
your requirements. The redundant configuration further
increases system availability.
• An additional protective coating (conformal coating) on the
circuit board optimally protects the modules against external
influences and makes them durable.
• The S7-400H stands out thanks to its long-term availability.
• Safety engineering, SIMATIC F-systems and standard
automation can be integrated into a single automation system.
• The configuration of the distributed I/O of the S7-400 can be
modified during operation. In addition signal modules can be
removed and inserted while live (hot swapping). This makes it
very easy to expand the system or replace modules in the
event of a fault.
• Storage of the entire project data, including symbols
and comments, on the CPU simplifies service and
maintenance calls.
