The VLT® PROFINET MCA 120 oers
connectivity to PROFINET based
networks via the PROFINET Protocol.

PROFINET was introduced in 2003
and is today a proven and complete
industrial Ethernet network solution
available for manufacturing automa­tion. PROFINET is a member of a family
of networks that implement the PROFI­NET protocol at its upper layers.

PROFINET encompasses a suite of
messages and services for a variety of
manufacturing automation applica­tions, including control, configuration
and information.

The option is able to handle a single
connection with an Actual Packet
Interval down to 2 ms in both direc­tions, positioning it among the fastest
performing PROFINET devices in the
market.

Other features

Built-in web server for remote diag­nosis and reading out of basic drive

parameters. An e-mail notificator can
be configured for sending an e-mail
message to one or several receivers,
if certain warnings or alarms occur, or
have cleared again.

The plug and play option can be in­stalled in VLT® AutomationDrive,
VLT® HVAC Drive, VLT® Refrigeration
Drive and VLT® AQUA Drive.
