The AMC 600 is a PLC-based programmable automation controller (PAC) suitable for land and wind power control applications. It is designed to marine specifications and can withstand very harsh operating conditions. With its modular, service-friendly design, compact size, and extensive control and customisation options, the AMC 600 offers great performance and flexibility.
Performance and flexibility with module concept
The modular design concept of the AMC 600 provides ultimate flexibility: Six different rack sizes give you 4 to 14 module slots, allowing you to specify 2 to 12 optional modules and configure them for your application. You can daisy-chain or star-connect several racks if needed.
The modules provide power supply, CPU/processing, digital and analogue I/Os, field bus communication, condition monitoring, and station interface functionality, letting you configure the AMC 600 for applications including a standalone CPU module, an internet cloud edge gateway, or a full PLC system with local and remote I/O. All modules are coated for protection against environmental factors, and they are quickly and easily mounted and connected.
You can order the AMC 600 pre-assembled with one or more racks according to your configuration, eliminating the need to assemble it onsite. You can quickly and easily change the configuration later.
Wide range of protocols supported
By default, the AMC 600 uses the EtherCAT protocol, providing support for several hundreds of I/O points and letting you place multiple I/O nodes in different physical locations to reduce cabling.
