Prozessleittechnik > Optimal Design
Concentration on the essentials
The complexity of automation should be limited to the application. The automation system is a means to a solution and should not cause any additional complication to the project. The X20 System is a tool for solving complex tasks. It is simple and intuitively built and can be used without special know-how. The X20 System helps you to achieve your goals and provide fast and economical solutions.
Optimal design
X20 modules are divided into three parts to guarantee the simplest usability throughout their entire lifecycle.
The division into bus module, electronic module and terminal block provides many advantages.

Preconfigured for machine variations
The X20 System bus modules are the basic platform for many machine variations. The utilization of the machine determines which electronic modules are used. The software recognizes the utilization automatically and provides the necessary functions. Handling different variations couldn’t be easier.

Industrial switching cabinet construction
The X20 System terminal blocks, which are separated from the electronic modules, make it possible to prewire complete switching cabinets. Ideal for manufacturing series machines.

Easy service
X20 modules can be easily exchanged to simplify troubleshooting. The electronic modules are exchanged during operation. The wiring stays the same thanks to the separate terminal blocks. Being able to quickly exchange the automation components reduces down-time.

6-pin/12-pin terminal blocks

Two terminal types for efficient configurations, 12-pin terminal with high component density, 6-pin terminal for fewer channels

Push-in terminals

Tool-free handling, screwdriver only needed for dismounting, clear terminal assignments, removal, labeling

Coding

Factory coding for system security, custom coding to prevent mix-ups, embedded parameter chip for software coding

Diagnostics

LED block with all status displays, compact display without view blocked by wiring, extended diagnostics using software

Extensive product spectrum

All modules with varying number of channels, optimal configuration according to the number of channels needed, scalable performance

Electrically isolated

Bus and I/O electronics completely separated, for secure communication in adverse conditions, diagnostics remains possible

Simple mounting

Sophisticated mounting rail system, system handling like a rack system, module handling like an I/O slice system

Stable in spite of three-part modularity

Rack stability through bus module connection, all cross-connections in the bus module, long and stable guides
