Modicon Modernization Solutions Easily upgrade your Modicon Compact
Your challenges Extend the life of your existing automation with minimum risk and minimum investment Capture past investment & intellectual property within your PLC applications Be futureproof, with an evolution path to the latest technology Avoid any risk of unplanned and extended shutdown during the migration Retain connectivity to any other PLC and HMI/SCADA without extra reprogramming We are introducing a new migration path that creates a simple process to update your Compact platform based upon your needs and constraints.
Compact to M340 Upgrade Compact PLCs to M340
Migration path for Compact PLC Hardware Software Network Providing migration capabilities for historic offers with minimum RISK, cost and on your schedule • The legacy CPU is replaced by an M340 • using a Quick wiring adapter to keep the • existing wiring • minimum downtime (< 1hour) • Minimum RISK of change • Preserve your existing application • Capitalize on prior investment Advance to the latest network technology (Ethernet, Factory Cast HMI) or maintain existing MB+
Why change to M340 ? SYSTEM • Extended temperature (-25C to +70C) • Extended backplane IO • 125VDC IO, 230 VAC IO • High density Analog NETWORKING • MB+ proxy • Dual port serial NOM module • Support for • Legacy networks: MB+, NOM • New networks: Ethernet, Factorycast Special Function • RTU Module • Gas flow loadable TOOLS • Quick wiring adapters • Cross reference guide • Concept SW converter
Upgrade to the new Modicon platform and access: After FKAA (Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority) greatly improved its efficiency by upgrading from Modicon Compacts to the latest Schneider Electric PLCs, Carl Brewster, Chief Information Officer, FKAA, said: “Prior to the upgrade we had to travel to each and every PLC, covering over 130 miles. Just the transportation and overtime cost to send a technician to one site was huge.We are more effcient now because we’ve eliminated any need to travel to any PLC for troubleshooting. Our technicians can identify the problem remotely and then take any needed equipment with them instead of having to make three-to-four trips for troubleshooting and then repair.” Improved reliability of newer electronic Components Increased production time and efficiency Better process visibility and throughput Open access to common enterprise applications via standard Ethernet networking Integrated functionality of database applications, email, and browser-based application reports
