NT43-ECNT43-0 - Power Supply Module - B&R
This B&R brand power supply and reference NT43-ECNT43-0 belongs to the MULTICONTROL range
MULTICONTROL power supply module, 24 VDC input voltage, 100 W output power, relay ready
This NT43-ECNT43-0 power supply is at your disposal to replace your defective equipment and has a functional guarantee adapted to your needs.
The MULTICONTROL system is most powerful system in this range. The multiprocessor architecture in the MULTICONTROL system enables solutions for almost any automation problem.
MULTICONTROL applications include:
Logic Control
A MULTICONTROL system can have up to 1536 digital input/ outputs. The CPU has 42 KBytes of application program memory. Control processing speed is 2.5 msec/K instructions.
Visualization
This system provides visualization devices for every application - from single operator panels to high resolution full graphic monitors. The visualization devices are described in section B.
Communication
The MULTICONTROL can also be integrated in a network - with other B&R devices or with devices from other manufacturers. Networks such as ETHERNET (SINEC H1, FASTNET, TCP/IP), ARCNET, CAN Bus, B&R MININET as well as communication software packages are described in section C.
Industrial Computer
The B&R MAESTRO system can be integrated into the MULTICONTROL system. This enables the PLC to handle complex automation tasks (CNC, Data storage and management).
Positioning
From simple single axis positioning tasks with servo motors or stepper motors right up to complex CNC systems - the MULTICONTROL handles the job. See section A8 "Positioning".
PID Loop Control
Proven control algorithms, fast processors, powerful analog inputs/outputs - for the MULTICONTROL System naturally.
The B&R PROgramming SYStem is used to program the MULTICONTROL system.
When B&R started off the 80's with the predecessor of the MULTICONTROL system, a whole new multiprocessing concept was brought forth. Nobody could believe the success of the system. The idea was unheard of before and very good: Instead of the entire application program in a single processor (the CPU), multiple parallel processors (coprocessors) could be run in the same rack, each performing its own tasks. Each one of the coprocessors took care of its own part of the overall application. The CPU only had to control the communication between the other processors. This new concept brought about faster system reaction times and at the same time guaranteed that the system could be expanded at any time without slowing anything down.
In the period to follow, multiprocessor PLCs were developed by many other PLC manufacturers, but the efficiency and power of the MULTICONTROL remained on top. MULTICONTROL won the "Control Engineering" prize for innovation in 1988 for the best automation product of the year.
The next innovative step was also made by B&R. The B&R MAESTRO put the powers of PLC and industrial computer in one unit. The processors communicate over a common bus - faster and more secure than any network. Not enough. To perfect multiprocessor technology, B&R developed the B&R MAESTRO coprocessors. Several industrial computers (based on 680x0) on a common bus in the PLC, or in other words: A multiprocessing industrial computer in the multiprocessing PLC!
