Redundancy

Increasing the plant availability

For the individual telecontrol protocols, reference was already
made as to how the availability of telecontrol communication
can be increased using redundant transmission paths. How-
ever, as a result of seamless integration of the telecontrol
technology into the SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system, the
redundant design of the telecontrol communication is embed-
ded in the redundancy concept of the complete system and
must therefore be considered globally.

The example of a SIMATIC PCS 7 process control system
with integral telecontrol linking of RTUs on the basis of
the IEC 870-5-101/IEC 870-5-104 protocols demonstrates the
various possibilities for increasing plant availability:

• Redundant SIMATIC PCS 7 TeleControl OS servers for pro-

cess control of central and widely distributed units and for
archiving

• Redundant system bus for system communication
• Redundant telecontrol communication between control

center and RTUs over two separate transmission paths

• Redundant RTUs on the basis of S7-400H/ S7-400FH con-

trollers for local automation of remote units

• Redundant PROFIBUS for communication between control-

ler and process I/O (I/O modules, process instruments and
devices in the field)

• Redundant process I/O

It is also possible to implement safety-related functions in
the RTU (up to SIL 3) based on the S7-400FH controller and
F modules in the ET 200M remote I/O station.
