Operators gain maximum transparency and benefit from increased plant availability. The solution records operational and diagnostic data from Caparoc's communicative modules and makes it available to higher-level systems. The application is based on Phoenix Contact's PLCnext Technology and can be installed and configured without requiring engineering expertise.
The IIoT Framework transmits data from the modules via standardized interfaces such as REST API, OPC UA, and MQTT. This allows information from the 24 V DC power supply to be easily integrated into SCADA systems, cloud applications, or custom IoT platforms. Users are kept fully and transparently informed about the status of their installation at all times. In addition to the status of each channel, current values, configured nominal currents, warning messages, and diagnostic data can be centrally monitored. This enables the timely detection of critical operating states and prevents unscheduled system downtime.
The Caparoc IIoT Framework acts as an easy-to-use OT-IT gateway between the field level and information systems. Its open data structure lays the foundation for condition monitoring, remote monitoring, and data-driven maintenance concepts. This enables operators to utilize their facilities more efficiently and sustainably increase availability.
