Programmable Logic Controllers

Schneider Electric offers one of the most capable lines of PLCs on the market. From our Advantys® distributed I/O to our PC-mounted Quantum® PLC, we have the perfect fit for your application.

Telemecanique® Modicon® M340 ® PAC
Schneider Electric’s newest midrange PLC and is the most integrated ever! The M340 is best suited for water and wastewater plant wide control on small municipal plants or package plants. It is also suitable for small to medium individual machines or package machines, such as most headwork and biosolids machines, as well as pumping stations. Additionally, it can be applied to small to medium size process applications, such as package membrane systems, single or dual aeration basin control, granular activated carbon (GAC) filters, chlorination, ultraviolet (UV), and ozone systems. >Learn more.

Telemecanique® Modicon® Quantum® PLC
This high-end PLC offers the best performance levels on the market for program execution, including five IEC 61131-3 compliant programming languages. Some processors even offer the 984 ladder logic that your legacy PLCs use! The Quantum system provides you with memory capacity up to 7Mb, integrated Transparent Ready™ Modbus® TCP/IP Ethernet port, Web server and high-speed USB socket, redundant power supplies, I/O cabling options, and true Hot Standby. All of this is backed by a maximum I/O capacity of 64,000 discrete points with 72 different I/O modules to chose from. In addition, the Quantum has powerful communication options including Modbus, Modbus Plus™, ASI, Profibus DP, Ethernet (Modbus TCP/IP) and DeviceNet (via AVG Automation). This PLC can easily exceed your expectations whether controlling a large water and wastewater process, or combining control from several different areas of your plant.

Many process applications served by the Modicon® Quantum™ require a connection to PROFIBUS DP as a master. >Learn more...

 
Telemecanique® Modicon® Premium™ PLC
With 2048 discrete I/O, the Premium™ PLC is optimized for small to medium size process control applications, yet is still robust enough to handle the demands of water and wastewater processes. Whether used as a main controller, or in an OEM package, the multiple levels of processors, "plug and play" memory, and rack additions allow for instantaneous system expansion while minimizing component costs. Furthermore, you can maximize uptime with warm stand-by and diagnostic and maintenance capabilities such as diagnostic function blocks, run-time screens, and field exchangeable memory options. Additionally, the Premium’s Web Server capability provides you with the Transparent Ready openness you expect from Schneider Electric. The Premium PLC has powerful communication options such as Modbus, Modbus Plus, Profibus™ DP, and CANOpen™. Furthermore, Web Server, and Modbus TCP/IP protocol make Ethernet communication more transparent then ever.
 
Telemecanique® Modicon® Momentum™ PLC
The Momentum™ platform is ideal for small distributed I/O applications (up to 8192 points) with local intelligence, applications such as influent screening, fluoride injection, or RTU applications. The Momentum solution consists of components that easily snap together in various combinations to form versatile control systems or sub-systems. The broad range of available components range from traditional I/O to a processor with an embedded Transparent Ready Web Server. This variety includes all of the major fieldbus and control networks from Ethernet to Profibus DP, DeviceNet™, Modbus Plus, and others. The Momentum PLC offers the power and flexibility of larger PLCs in a smaller package.
 
Telemecanique® Twido™ Ultra Compact PLC
Twido® compact and modular PLCs provide improved simplicity and flexibility. A programmable controller for standard applications, from 10 to 252 I/O, the Twido PLC is ideal for simple standalone installations such as chemical feed, sewage grinder, and septage receiving applications. Twido is Ethernet-enabled and can even be programmed via BlueTooth™!
 
Telemecanique® Modicon® Advantys™ Modular Distributed I/O
The Advantys STB is a distributed I/O platform that provides a wiring solution, power management, and device integration system all in one compact system. As an open modular IP20 distributed I/O platform, Advantys STB is a cost-effective, feature rich distributed I/O solution that places I/O at the point of control to provide a 60% savings in wiring and installation costs while improving reliability and operation. These devices can also be configured to react in a pre-determined way in case of communication loss with the PLC. This feature can insure your aerators are running, even if communication is lost! This is piece of mind you can afford.
