1.11 Modules, interfaces, configuration options
1.11 Modules, interfaces, configuration options
For each feeder, every system comprises a basic unit and a separate current measuring
module. Both modules are connected to each other electronically via the system interface,
by means of a connecting cable, and can be installed together as a unit (behind one another)
or separately (side-by-side). An operator panel can also be connected optionally via the
second system interface on the basic unit, and installed in the switchgear cabinet door. The
current measuring module and the operator panel are connected to the basic unit via
connecting cables, which also supply the power. More inputs, outputs and functions can be
added to the SIMOCODE pro S, pro V PB, pro V MR, pro V EtherNet/IP and
pro V PN /pro V PN GP basic units by means of optional expansion modules, thus
supplementing the inputs and outputs already existing on the basic unit. All modules are
connected by connecting cables. The connecting cables are available with different lengths
(ribbon cable 0.025 m, 0.1 m, 0.15 m, 0.3 m, 0.5 m; round cable 0.5 m, 1.0 m, 2.5 m).
The total length of all cables must not exceed 3 m on either of the system interfaces of the
basic unit!
The maximum distance between the modules (e. g. between the basic unit and the current
measuring module) must not exceed 2.5 m.
Additional control programs (star-delta starters, Dahlander starters, pole-changing starters,
soft starters, each program also possible in combination with reversing starter, solenoid
valve and positioner) are integrated in SIMOCODE pro V High Performance units. The
SIMOCODE pro V device type is also particularly versatile. Its functionality can be expanded,
if required, for example:
● The number and type of binary inputs and outputs can be increased in stages and
adapted.
● A current/voltage measuring module can be used for additional voltage measurement and
for monitoring power-related measured values (power management).
● A temperature module enables the evaluation of several analog temperature sensors.
● A ground-fault detection system can be integrated together with a summation current
transformer.
● An analog module extends the system by additional analog inputs and outputs, for
example, for fill-level or flow-rate monitoring.
● An operator panel with display (OPD) is available as an alternative to the standard
operator panel (OP)
(restriction in the case of the SIMOCODE pro V PB: from version *E03*).
A special current/voltage measuring module for dry-running protection of centrifugal pumps
in hazardous areas by active power monitoring can be used in combination with the following
high performance devices with PTB 18 ATEX 5003:
● SIMOCODE pro V PB from version *E16*
● SIMOCODE pro V PN from version *E13*
● SIMOCODE pro V EIP from version *E04*
SIMOCODE pro C and SIMOCODE pro S are upwardly-compatible with SIMOCODE pro V.
This means you can combine different series in your plant according to functional
requirements.
Depending on functional requirements, the systems can be used simultaneously in a
low-voltage switchboard without any problems and without any additional effort.
Parameterization of SIMOCODE pro C or SIMOCODE pro S can be transferred without a
problem.

System Manual, 05/2019, A5E40507475002A/RS-AD/004
● The quantity of cabling required between the motor feeder and the PLC is reduced
significantly by connecting the entire motor feeder to the process control system via the
fieldbus (see Figures "SIMOCODE pro, integrated in the main circuit, control circuit and at
automation level (PLC)")
● Automated processes are decentralized by means of configurable control and monitoring
functions in the feeder. This saves automation system resources and ensures that the
feeder is fully functional and protected even if the control system or bus system fails.
● By recording and monitoring operating, service and diagnostics data in the feeder and
process control system, plant availability is increased, and the feeder is easier to service
and maintain.
● The user can implement plant-specific requirements for every motor feeder thanks to the
high degree of modularity.
● SIMOCODE pro provides compact solutions and different levels of functions for every
customer application.
● By replacing the control circuit hardware with an integrated control function, the quantity
of required hardware components with wiring is reduced. This drives down storage costs
and limits potential wiring errors.
● Using electronic full motor protection allows the motors to be used more efficiently and
ensures that the tripping characteristic remains stable and the tripping response stays the
same, even after many years.
