“Remote Transmission Units” for Digitizing Power Grids

RTU for Telecontrol Technology

As their platform, WAGO’s RTU solutions use the modular WAGO I/O System, which has a long record of success on the market. For this purpose, special telecontrol protocols (IEC 61850, IEC 60870, DNP3 and Modbus®) have been added to the scalable-performance controllers. In combination with the option of IEC-61131-3 programming, this allows all tasks – both telecontrol communication tasks and station automation tasks – to be handled flexibly and, above all, easily.

International approvals guarantee continuous operation under the most challenging environmental conditions. The Linux® operating system ensures maximum flexibility along with long-term availability of the automation solution, taking into account the strictest security requirements for critical infrastructure applications.

Telecontrol Technology Protocols

Different configurations of the communication protocols are available depending on the engineering environment. Protocols can also be combined with each other (within the system limits) – for instance, in order to implement various gateway functions:

Configurators and Programming

The telecontrol configurators are integrated directly into the CODESYS V2.3 engineering environment.

After convenient configuration of the desired telecontrol application, the corresponding code is automatically generated for the controller.

Now it is possible to program gateway functions or additional logic per IEC 61131-3, such as a supply controller with a TÜV-certified library.

The integrated Web visualization is ready for diagnostics and/or configurations.

Implementation of simple RTU applications is also very convenient with the new stand-alone telecontrol configurator. This means communication objects can be quickly and easily created and mapped to the existing I/O datapoints – without any complex engineering tools.

CODESYS V2.3: Configuring Telecontrol Stations (RTU) and Programming Applications

CODESYS V2.3 is an engineering tool based on IEC 61131 3 for creating control configurations, control logic and visualizations. The configurations for telecontrol technology are already integrated.

The Benefits for You:

  • An engineering tool for ETHERNET controllers and PFC200
  • Integration of IEC 60870-5 (client/server), DNP3 (master, outstation), IEC 61850 (Client/Server/GOOSE)

CODESYS: WAGO Telecontrol Configurator: Easy Telecontrol Station (RTU) Configuration

The WAGO Telecontrol Configurator is stand-alone software that makes configuring and operating your telecontrol station (RTU) easier. The telecontrol configurator cannot further process the data in the decentralized telecontrol station (RTU) with this software.

Your Benefits:

  • Easy commissioning of an RTU coupler
  • Send data from the WAGO I/O System’s digital and analog measurement modules to a DNP3 or IEC 60870-5-101-/-104 control system (monitoring direction)
  • Both analog and digital data transfer from the control system to the I/O module (command direction)

Certificates and Approvals

Valid approvals and certifications are required for safe, secure operation of telecontrol technology around the word – especially where the functionality of supply and distribution grids is concerned.

That’s why we have certificates for the three most important telecontrol protocols, IEC 61850, IEC 60870 and DNP 3, and renew them regularly, so you can use WAGO telecontrol technology with confidence. The certified telecontrol protocols add an extra level of security whenever third-party components are connected to or incorporated into the WAGO telecontrol system.

RTU Applications

Solutions

Whether electrical power, gas, water or heat: Due to the increasing decentralization of energy generation and integrated grids, as well as sector coupling, data transfer volumes and communication challenges are growing. As a telecontrol technology supplier, WAGO has just the solution – secure, economical and primed for the future.

Reliable Telecontrol Technology

The world’s fossil fuel supply is finite, and global warming is already well underway. Failure is not an option for the energy transition. Telecontrol technology will play a special role in the implementation, since the electricity, gas, water and heat infrastructures in particular involve spread-out service areas and remote stations.
