New Integrating PLCnext + CAPAROC: A PROFINET Setup Guide
This guide provides a step-by-step walkthrough for establishing PROFINET communication between a Phoenix Contact PLCnext Controller and the CAPAROC electronic circuit breaker system. Designed with first-time users in mind, it helps eliminate common setup challenges while introducing essential tools for managing system updates. With modern software tools requiring firmware versions to align with the hardware, understanding these requirements upfront can streamline the process and prevent unnecessary delays.
Important safety requirements must be observed when providing an operator with special modes of operation, such as commissioning, maintenance, or setting up new processes.
The ZEUS modular enabling switch from SSP bridges safety and productivity through ease of use thanks to its ergonomic form and light weight.
The new B25 Wide Beam Sensor from Banner Engineering provides superior performance across a wide beam, ensuring reliable detection of targets regardless of shape, position, or material. This allows more precise control of timing and package flow, which improves sortation efficiency and accuracy.
Lenze has announced that their i-series motec decentralized VFDs now feature CIP Safety™. This TüV-certified addition ensures seamless integration into CIP Safety-based control systems, enhancing safety and efficiency in industrial applications.
