A simplified solution for study designed for safe benchtop use.
This solution provides an introduction to the role of industrial controllers in engineering. The system consists of a Siemens S7 PLC with HMI, controller, a Locktronics base board and a number of Locktronics switches, sensors, motors and indicators that students use to build a range of simple control circuits. Students progress through the worksheets building circuits and programming the controller to form a variety functioning electronic systems.
The Siemens S7 PLC with HMI unit provides a 4mm connected interface between the S7 and your PC in a rugged plastic case. The S7 is fitted with a S7-1214C PLC which provides 10 inputs and 10 transistor outputs and a Siemens KTP 400 Series Touch Screen HMI – 4.3 in, TFT Display, 480 x 272pixels.
The S7 is programmed from your PC using either a CAT 5 cable (provided) or Wi-Fi. A Telonika RUT950 high-performance industrial 4G LTE Wi-Fi router is included in the box – this allows you to program the unit by Wi-Fi and interface to other IP connected systems as part of Industry 4.0.
