Benefits
Structure
Finely-graduated modular design
• 1/2/4 channel electronic modules
• Power modules
• Integrated motor starters
• Function-oriented, cost-optimized station
design
• Considerable reduction in outlay for
configuration and documentation
• Space savings due to arbitrary
arrangement of the modules
Extensive range of electronic modules Broad area of application
System-integrated motor starter with
communications capability: Direct and
reversing starter up to 7.5 kW
PLC inputs and outputs, terminal blocks,
circuit breakers and contactors in a plug-in
module save space and the effort involved
in wiring
Permanent wiring due to the separation of
mechanical and electronic c omponents
• Prewiring possible
• Module replacement during operation of
the ET 200S (”hot swapping”)
Individual connection of power modules to
common potential
• Individual formation of potential groups
(identifiable by color coding of the TM-P
terminal modules for power modules)
• Simple load interruption
Robust structure for rough industrial
conditions (5 g vibration resistance)
High operating reliability when mounted
directly on the machine, high availability
