SIMOCODE pro System– the best in Motor Control, Monitoring and Protection

The powerful Siemens SIMOCODE pro system has been managing low-voltage motors for over 50 years, providing comprehensive protective, monitoring and control functions for a wide variety of motors in numerous industrial applications.
SIMOCODE is suitable for switching heavy-starting motors in industries such as paper, cement, metal and water management, and also In ATEX rated areas including chemical, oil, and raw material processing and power plants. Conventional dry-run detection follows a response chain from the dry-run sensor to the pump via the process controller. The SIMOCODE pro System differs by monitoring the pump’s status via its active-power input so no need to install additional monitoring devices or external measuring sensors.

Designed to excel the SIMOCODE pro System can control numerous devices, such as a direct-online starter, reversing pair, soft starter and star-delta starter which covers the majority of fixed speed applications up to 630 amps.

Motor Control Advantages
• Higher measuring accuracy
• Earlier fault detection
• Reduced hardware
• No maintenance effort
• Cost and time savings
• Reliable plant monitoring according to ATEX and IECEx criteria

Plant downtime can be drastically reduced through the stored operating, service and diagnostic data that helps engineers identify faults and processing anomalies quickly, saving on process downtime and ultimately production costs. Packed with innovation, the SIMOCODE pro system provides communication via PROFIBUS, PROFINET / PROFIsafe, Modbus RTU, and Ethernet IP and OPC UA – which lets engineers take advantage of the cloud.

With OPC UA, SIMOCODE pro offers a flexible and powerful communication interface via Industrial Ethernet for automation as well as operation and monitoring systems. Acting as OPC UA client, these systems can access all important operating, service and diagnostics data of SIMOCODE pro for PROFINET and transfer control commands via the integrated OPC UA server. The motor management system directs information from the control panel via Ethernet right to where it is processed: directly-on-site on HMI Panels or across multiple systems in higher-level cloud-based solutions.
