Robust right out of the box
The iE 350 PLC is designed to get the job done, even in harsh conditions.
Fully functional from -40 °C, the controller can start-up by self-heating and
control and do surveillance of auxiliary equipment from this extreme temperature.
The base-mounted rack and sturdy metal cabinet give it superior bump, 50G shock,
and vibration resistance properties during operation and transportation.
For example, the rack is mounted with a large screw on the switchboard’s back plate,
so that the unit cannot fall off the DIN rails after transportation.
The flanges ensure improved grounding, increasing protection against electrical disturbances.
The backplane interconnection of the I/O modules ensures reliable communication
in harsh environments. Built-in components provide efficient protection of power
supply and I/O circuits against lightning impacts. The iE 350 PLC is immune to ESD
bursts at a level conforming to international standards, reducing the risk of damaged terminals.
All units are fully production tested and verified at the factory through HALT
(Highly Accelerated Life Testing), and the Linux-based platform provides fail-safe
and robust system software. These and other features add up to a lifetime of
at least 10 years for the iE 350 PLC, plus supreme robustness which reduces service and downtime costs.
