Modicon M580 automation platform

Components (continued)

Modicon X80 modules Modicon X80 modules serve as the common base for automation platforms by simply adding a dedicated processor such as the Modicon M580 or Modicon M340. They may also: b Form part of a Quantum Ethernet I/O architecture as an Ethernet RIO (EIO) drop with a CRA bus terminal module b Form an Ethernet Modbus/TCP DIO drop with a PRA module The Modicon X80 modules are available in a single- or multi-rack configuration. A Modicon X80 drop may also accept automation platform-dedicated modules (communication, application-specific, etc.). One Modicon X80 drop may support two racks separated by a distance of up to 30 m/ 98 ft . Modicon X80 modules being common to several automation platforms, maintenance and training costs can be reduced as this offer comprises: b A single range of spare parts in stock b Training common to several PLCs Based on the latest I/O technology, the Modicon X80 modules offer: b High-quality ruggedness and compactness b Compliance with international certifications (ATEX, IEC, etc.) b A wide selection of modules: Discrete or analog I/O, expert modules, communication modules, etc. Note: For further information, please consult the “Modicon X80 modules” catalog available on our website. Dedicated modules HART integrated analog I/O modules The Highway Addressable Remote Transducer (HART) protocol is the global standard for sending and receiving digital information across analog wires between smart devices and a control or monitoring system. The standard is controlled by the HART Communications Foundation. HART integrated analog I/O modules can be added on the backplane of the Modicon M580 processor. These HART modules offer 8 channels per input module and 4 channels per output module. HART integrated analog I/O modules allow the integration of HART enabled instruments to the network architecture. Each Modicon M580 main rack can support up to 6 HART I/O modules and each Modicon X80 RIO drop can support up to 7 HART I/O modules. HART analog I/O modules are only supported by dual Ethernet and X-bus backplanes (main rack or RIO drop). Note: For further information, please consult the “Modicon X80 modules” catalog available on our website. IEC 61850 Module The BMENOP0300 module is used to implement an engineering approach by enabling IEC 61850-compliant data exchange across industrial automation and energy management applications. The BMENOP0300 module can provide different services under different roles, serving primarily in the following use case: b Electrical device integration (module acts as a MMS client to communicate with IEDs and supports GOOSE) b IEC 61850 based process control (Process control objects modeled with IEC61850 (hydro, DERs, etc.)). The module acts at the same type as a Server to communicate to SCADA and as a Client to communicate to IEDs b Integration of a Modicon M580 acting as a data concentrator into other electrical automation systems (module uses the IEC61850 server functionality). OPC UA module The BMENUA0100 OPC UA module is an Ethernet communication module with an embedded OPC UA server for communication with OPC UA clients, including SCADA. It brings high-performance OPC UA capabilities to Modicon M580 ePAC systems allowing to connect up to 10 OPC UA clients, 50.000 monitored items and managing hot and warm redundancy in non-transparent modes as well as certificate authority for cybersecure authentication. With its dual cybersecurity and transparency capabilities, it provides also a platform of choice to connect a Modicon M580 system securely to the control network. It supports IPV6. It also brings OPC UA client capability, thus allowing to aggregate data coming from different OPC UA servers or to enable peer-to-peer communication between PLCs.
