The most powerful Automation System within SIMATIC

Superb communication capability and integrated interfaces make the SIMATIC
S7-400 process controller ideal for larger tasks such as the coordination of entire systems.
The graded range of CPUs enables scalable performance and the capacity for I/O
periphery is virtually unlimited.
What's more, process controller signal modules can be inserted and removed while the system is live (hot swapping), making it very easy to expand the system or replace modules.

 

SIMATIC S7-400 controllers stand for: Security of investment Important for plant operators: Long-term security of investment. For this reason, Siemens has systematically further developed the SIMATIC S7-400 series. In this way, they ensure that the right controller will always be available for a vast range of automation solutions in the process industry.

 

High performance Due to its high scalability, the SIMATIC S7-400 series offers various safety and availability levels and thus covers all the relevant applications in the process industry.

Advantages at a glance

• High-availability automation
• Fail-safe automation
• Automation with long-term compatibility
• Scalable automation
• Usable in harsh environments

 

Powerful Depending on the particular industrial application, the optimum automation system can be selected based on performance, quantity structure and communication interfaces. From a favorably priced entry for smaller systems in the lower performance range with limited I/O expansion – up to the high-end range for large networked plants with tasks requiring a high degree of computational performance and where an almost unlimited number of signals can be processed. Companies operating plants profit from the SIMATIC S7-400 series over the long term. These automation systems are being continually innovated, and always represent state-of-the-art technology. These innovations include faster signal processing and expansion of the communication links, for instance. As a consequence, the SIMATIC S7-400 series addresses the upper performance range for industries thus representing the ultimate automation system.

 

Fault tolerant Fault-tolerant S7-400H controllers are your insurance against expensive plant downtimes. The cost effectiveness of your plant or system depends directly on the availability of your production, production lines or complete plant sections, and therefore on the automation system used. With SIMATIC S7-400H, Siemens offers a fault-tolerant automation system, which minimizes the probability of a production failure to nearly 0% – therefore playing a decisive role when it comes to achieving maximum productivity. From the CPU412-5H up to the CPU417-5H, you can select the optimum controller to address your requirements. SIMATIC S7-400H ensures reliable operation of your plants and systems – and avoids production
