GE 201CI-1 is a powerful controller module widely used in industrial automation and process control. The following is a detailed introduction to the GE 201CI-1 product:
1. Product Overview
GE 201CI-1 is a high-performance controller module produced by General Electric (GE) and is part of GE’s PACSystems series of controllers. It is designed for the logical control and management tasks of complex systems and has the ability to quickly handle complex logic and calculation tasks.
2. Technical Features
High-performance processor:
GE 201CI-1 uses a 32-bit or 64-bit high-performance processor that can quickly process large-scale data and complex logic.
Multiple input and output interfaces:
Supports a variety of digital and analog input/output (I/O) interfaces, and can flexibly connect various sensors, actuators and peripherals on site.
Network communication:
Integrates a variety of industrial communication protocols, such as Ethernet, Modbus, Profinet, etc., to facilitate data exchange with other control systems or upper systems to achieve distributed control.
Modular design:
The modular structure is easy to expand and maintain, and additional I/O modules or functional modules can be added as needed, providing flexible system expansion capabilities.
High reliability:
Industrial-grade design, with good anti-interference ability and environmental adaptability, can work stably for a long time in harsh industrial environments.
Support redundant power supply and communication to further ensure system reliability.
III. Application fields
Process control:
Widely used in industries such as petroleum, chemical, and electric power to control complex production processes.
Mechanical automation:
Used for tasks such as logic control and motion control of automated mechanical equipment.
Building management system:
In intelligent building and infrastructure management systems, it is used for functions such as environmental monitoring and energy management.
Distributed control system (DCS):
As a control node, it participates in distributed control networks in large factories or production systems.
IV. Programming environment
Compatible with programming software such as GE’s Proficy Machine Edition.
Supports multiple programming languages such as ladder logic, sequential function chart (SFC), structured text (ST), etc., which facilitates engineers to carry out logic development and debugging.
