The CPC12 and CPC20 bus controllers form the core of the intelligent ControlPlex^® systems. They combine the proven quality of 24 V DC overcurrent protection with communication capabilities via EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, EtherCAT, and Modbus TCP.

The bus controllers record all status information and measurement values of the connected circuit protectors and transmit this data to the higher-level control system via the fieldbus interface. In addition, the data is visualized via the integrated web server.

This provides the necessary transparency to detect changes in the production process at an early stage and take appropriate countermeasures.
