A migration solution for fail-safe controllers

| By Chemical Engineering

Siemens

The Gateway CM104 TSAA (photo) — a new migration solution for integrating Triconex fail-safe controllers into Simatic PCS 7-based control systems — enables existing systems to be expanded or modernized inexpensively and step-by-step. The new Gateway was developed to bring both the process control system and safety engineering up to the state-of-the art at the same time. It facilitates continuous communication between the Triconex, Trident or Tricon fail-safe controller and this firm’s automation system. The Gateway is completely integrated into the PSC 7, and can be laid out as a single or fully redundant link between the systems. — Siemens Industry Sector, Industrial Solutions Div., Erlangen, Germany
