Description
The Schneider Electric 140CPU67861 is a Unity Hot Standby processor according to information available online. Here’s a breakdown of its key features and functionalities:
Core Function:
- Provides redundancy and failover capability within a Schneider Electric Unity control system. It acts as a backup processor that can take over operations seamlessly in case the primary processor fails. This redundancy is crucial for ensuring continuous operation of critical industrial processes.
Key Features:
- Hot Standby Redundancy: The 140CPU67861 operates in hot standby mode, meaning it continuously monitors the primary processor’s health. If the primary processor fails, the hot standby processor automatically takes over control with minimal interruption to the process. This minimizes downtime and ensures system availability.
- Ethernet Connectivity: It possesses a single-mode Ethernet port for communication within the control system network.
- Processing Power: While specific details might be difficult to find, the processor likely offers sufficient processing power to handle the control tasks of the Unity system in the event of a failover.
Applications:
- Industrial Automation and Process Control: The 140CPU67861 is used in various industrial automation and process control applications where high system availability is critical. This includes:
- Manufacturing production lines
- Power generation and distribution facilities
- Oil and gas refineries
- Water treatment plants
- Chemical processing plants
