The system can be easily integrated into existing automation solutions, supporting a wide range of interfaces. Regardless of the fieldbus protocol, it offers flexible application possibilities within existing infrastructures. Additionally, it ensures optimal compatibility and performance with the certified PROFINET® controller (ComDec).

Cybersecurity

Two separate MAC addresses provide secure network disconnection, enhancing security. Data transmission remains reliably encrypted, even when converting between fieldbus systems, ensuring maximum security and efficiency.

Future-Oriented

With response times of under 6 milliseconds, the PFC 300 processes up to 210,000 data points reliably. Its modern 64-bit architecture delivers peak performance and supports virtualized applications. The open Linux® operating system and Docker® technology provide maximum flexibility and ensure future-proofing, making it perfect for complex automation projects.

Versatile

The PFC 300 offers intuitive operation through the Web-based management interface (WBM) and enables dynamic web visualizations via HTML5, secured by TLS 1.3. With SD card support for data storage, six individually configurable LEDs and a USB-C port for direct programming, it can be used flexibly. Its compact design makes the PFC 300 the ideal solution for your automation needs.

Controllers in Practical Applications

1 of 3

In many industrial applications, PLC programmers and technicians need a simple, standardized way to connect their controllers to a laptop or PC. Especially during commissioning or maintenance, quick and reliable access to the controller is essential – without dealing with proprietary cables, software or interfaces. The PFC 300 is this straightforward solution.

In production systems, machine manufacturers face the challenge of ensuring efficient and reliable communication between machines and control systems. A PROFINET® network offers the ideal foundation for optimizing processes and ensuring smooth operation. Additionally, hardware is needed that, along with high reliability, also enables easy integration and scalability – particularly when expanding production lines or introducing new machines.

In demanding applications requiring high computing power, embedded programmers often struggle to find a PLC that is both reliable and powerful. Computationally intensive tasks and parallel applications require a controller with more memory, faster processors and optimized performance – especially for real-time requirements. The PFC 300 meets these demands, offering exceptional performance even for complex tasks.
