140CPU67160
The 140CPU67160 stands out for its robust redundancy architecture, which eliminates single points of failure in industrial control systems. Its embedded Coprocessor enables real-time data synchronization between primary and standby units via a high-speed fiber-optic link , ensuring seamless failover without compromising data integrity. This is particularly valuable in applications like oil refineries, where process interruptions can lead to safety incidents or environmental hazards.
Engineered for harsh industrial environments, the
140CPU67160 features a ruggedized casing with surge protection and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. It withstands extreme temperatures, vibrations, and voltage spikes, making it suitable for deployment in proximity to heavy machinery or outdoor substations. The module also supports hot-swappable I/O modules, allowing maintenance without system shutdown—a feature that reduces downtime by up to 70% compared to non-redundant systems .

140CPU67160
Interoperability is a cornerstone of its design. The
140CPU67160 integrates with third-party devices through its modular expansion slots, supporting up to 63 remote I/O stations and unlimited Ethernet-connected devices . This flexibility makes it a preferred choice for retrofitting legacy SCADA systems, as demonstrated in a power plant upgrade where it replaced outdated controllers, doubling processing speed while maintaining compatibility with existing field devices .
