HIMA Safety Controller HIQuad H41q/H51q
Description
The HIMA PES described here consists of the H41q and H51q system families. Both system families are based on the same hardware and software, and they are the third generation of the field-proven HIMA PES to control preferably process engineering plants. PCs (PADT)* are used for programming, configuration, data logging, operation and trend recording. Digital and analog inputs can be processed. Some input modules are designed for intrinsically safe circuits as well as for electric position sensors (proximity switches) according to DIN EN 60947-5-6. Digital and analog outputs are also available. The HIMA PES are installed in 19-inches subracks. The H41q system family is a compact system consisting of one subrack, holding all components such as central unit, interface extensions, communication modules, power supplies, fusing and power distribution, as well as input/ output modules. The H51q system has a modular structure. A central rack contains the central unit(s), interface exten-sions, communication modules, monitoring and power supplies, and it can have up to 16 associated input/output subracks.
The HIMA PES of the H41q and H51q system families consist of 19 inches subracks for central devices 5 HU and modules for binary and analog input/output signals which are assembled in H51q systems within 19 inches subracks, 4 HU. The HIMA PES use PCs (PADTs) with the tool ELOP II for programming, configuration, monitoring, operation and documentation. The entry of the user program and the compilation into the machine code is made only on the PC without connected PES. To load, test and to monitor the PES the PC is connected via a serial interface RS 485 or a bus system to the PES.
HIMA PES are designed both for safety-related applications up to SIL 3 (definition according to IEC 61508) and for high availability. Depending on the required safety and availability, HIMA PES can be supplied as one-channel or two-channel (redundant) devices with the same modules in the central device as well as in the input/output level. Redundant modules increase the availability, as in case of an error in a safety-related module this is automatically switched off while the redundant module continues the operation.
The H41q System Family:
The H41q system family comprises compact designed PES in single channel and redundant models, also with TÜV safety certificate. All input/output modules can be used with both redundant and single channel models of the central modules. All modules of the H41q system family meet the requirements for electromagnetic compatibility and immunity according to article 10 of the EG guideline 89/336/EWG for the electromagnetic conformity. This is demonstrated with the CE sign within the data sheets of the modules. Also the systems and modules are wearing a label with this sign. All models of the H41q system family have all the components required for control tasks in one 19 inches subrack, 5 units high, with an integrated cable tray.
The H51q System Family:
The H51q system family comprises modular designed PES in single channel and redundant models, also with TÜV safety certificate. All input/output modules can be used with both redundant and single channel models of the central devices. All modules of the H51q system family meet the requirements for electromagnetic compatibility and immunity according to article 10 of the EU guideline 89/336/EWG for the electromagnetic conformity. This is marked with the CE sign within the data sheets of the modules. Also the systems and modules are wearing a label with this sign. The H51q system family consists of one 19 inches central rack, 5 units high, and up to 16 input/ output racks in the 19 inches size, 4 units high.
The key to increased productivity
HIQuad Technology – The new dimension of Safety:
· Technology characterized by double processors on each central unit.
· Safety related single channel systems up to AK6/SIL3 without any restrictions.
· Communication with the second central unit by a fast Dual Port RAM (DPR).
· Realisation of a 2oo4/QMR architecture (Quadruple Modular Redundant)
· Maximum availability and fault tolerance with a redundant system.
The new central module:
· Double processor and hardware comparator on each central unit. (HIQuad Technology)
· certified up to AK6/SIL3
· Optimum diagnostic coverage factor and diagnosis.
· ELOP II programming in conformance with IEC 61131-3.
Cost effective Availability and Safety:
· H41q/H51q – solution needs less hardware: high potential to reduce costs.
· H41q/H51q – solution is easy structured and has a better MTTF: high reliability.
· The 2out of4/QMR-architecture of H41q/H51q is insensitive to “common cause” failure.
