On 30 March 2021, the proposal centre of Siemens Digital Industries Process Automation successfully demonstrated MTL SUM5 – the smart universal marshalling module – connected to the new configurable SIMATIC ET 200SP HA I/O cards. The team from Siemens AG and MTL Instruments GmbH confirmed seamless operation.
Why it matters
- One marshalling cabinet design for IS isolation, signal conditioning, relays, surge protection and loop disconnect
- Configurable I/O plus configurable marshalling enables late I/O changes without rewiring
- Fewer cabinets, less wiring and faster project execution
VTL supplies MTL SUM5 and supports integration with DCS platforms.
