Overview

The Modicon Quantum PLC provides a scalable, modular architecture that is configurable to meet the needs of even the most critical solutions from a single-rack system to a plant-wide architecture.
Ideally suited for industries that require continuous operation and rapid responsiveness to achieve optimum cycle times, the Modicon Quantum PLC offers integrated communication connectivity, extensive diagnostics functionality, and exceptional memory and data storage.

Memory and storage
With 3 MB of internal memory for programs and data as well as 8 MB of PCMCIA memory for program data and files, the Modicon Quantum PLC has the processing power and flexibility for any application.The PLC can hold the complete source project,
process complex data structures, time stamp diagnostic information at the source, and store recipes or tracking data.

Open and flexible
With its modular and flexible architecture (extension racks, remote I/O (including Ethernet remote I/O), processors, PCMCIA memory…), the Modicon Quantum PLC meets the needs of the most complex applications, in both centralized and distributed topologies.

High availability and efficiency
Redundant Quantum CPUs have a dedicated built-in Ethernet port (100BASE-FX) that provides rapid synchronization of all data from the primary CPU to the secondary or standby CPU, making the Modicon Quantum PLC hot standby system the solution for time-critical applications that can’t afford unscheduled down time.

                   



Features

Quantum provides well-balanced CPUs able to provide leading performance from boolean to floating-point instruction...
5 IEC languages as standard: LD, ST, FBD, SFC, IL, the Modicon LL984 language to facilitate installed base migration.
High-level multitasking system
Memory capacity up to 7 Mb using PCMCIA extensions
Specially shaped for process control applications with conformal coated modules, and an extensive catalogue of partner modules
Safety processors and I/O modules to manage safety integrated systems
Plug & Play high-performance Hot-Standby solutions with LCD keypad for local monitoring
Numerous built-in ports (USB port, Ethernet TCP/IP port with Web server, Modbus Plus and at least one Modbus serial port) on the front panel
In-rack connectivity to Profibus-DP, embedded Ethernet router
Increase the availability of your architecture with the CRA and CRP Quantum Ethernet I/O modules (QEIO)
Thanks to the Modicon X80 drops, expand your architecture and integrate easily your distributed devices in the same network (such as HMI, variable speed drives, I/O islands...)
