BCU-50 - Robustness across the board
Bay station controllers in the electrical power supply must withstand special environmental requirements, especially when the station automation is used in high-voltage equipment, strongly vibrating or shock generating system components as well as environments with a seismic risk.
Fields of use
Station and bay controller in medium and high-voltage switchgears
Gateway and communication router between station buses, field bus and control systems
Monitoring and control unit for the utilities, waste management and manufacturing industry
Same as at its brother FW-50, a particular strength of BCU-50 lies in the implementation of communication tasks with substations and control systems of many different manufacturers.
