SIMOCODE pro.A really strong family.Two functionally graded device series form the core of the multifunctionalSIMOCODE pro motor management system: General Performance and HighPerformance. The devices in both series incorporate all essential motor protection,monitoring and control functions – including data transparency through the Cloudconnection. SIMOCODE pro General Performance is your entry into modern motormanagement and addresses standard motor applications. SIMOCODE pro HighPerformance features up to five expansion modules and offers additional measuredvariables. Find out how you can take advantage of the two SIMOCODE pro deviceseries in all areas of the process industry.SIMOCODE pro – General Performance:Ideal for the entry levelSIMOCODE pro – High Performance:The fully professional solution for every motorThe smart and compact motor management system for directon-line, reversing, and star-delta (wye-delta) starters or forcontrolling a motor starter protector or soft starter. The basicsystem includes a current measuring module and the basic unitfor overload or thermistor motor protection, for example.Communication with the automation level takes place viaPROFIBUS/PROFINET. Optional additions include an operatorpanel and an expansion module that allows additional inputs/outputs, ground-fault detection and temperature measurement to be realized.The SIMOCODE pro High Performance motor managementsystem is variable, intelligent and can be adapted individuallyto suit every requirement. The basic system includes a modulefor measuring current (and optionally also voltage), as well asa basic unit, and is suitable for removing pump blockages, forexample. Communication with the automation level takesplace via PROFIBUS or Modbus RTU, via Ethernet with thePROFINET or EtherNet/IP protocols, and also via OPC UA. Theoptional expansions available include separate current/voltagemeasuring modules for dry-running protection, an operatorpanel with display, a ground-fault module, a temperaturemodule, standard digital modules, fail-safe digital modules andan analog module.4

SIMOCODE pro Safety:Fail-safe expansion modulesVarious modules are available for SIMOCODE pro for theextended protection of personnel, machines and the environment. These guarantee the safety-related shutdown ofmotors and meet all the requirements of the standards.The advantages: unctional switching and fail-safe shutdown withoutFmanual wiring or additional effort Safety function parameters can be flexibly configured ransfer of meaningful diagnostic data to theTcontrol system Logging of errors for detailed evaluation Fail-safe shutdown via PROFIsafePROFINET IO / OPC UAETHERNET / IPPROFIBUSMODBUS RTUSIMOCODE pro V PNSIMOCODE pro V EIPSIMOCODE pro V PBSIMOCODE pro V MRCurrent / voltagemeasuring moduleHigh PerformanceOperator panel with displaymax. 5 / 7 expansionmodulesSafetyExtended control functionsGeneral Performance(e.g. positioner, polechanging starter)SIMOCODE pro V PN GPSIMOCODE pro SCurrent measuring moduleOperator panel1 expansion moduleBasic control functions(e.g. direct-on-line/reversing start)5

Remove pump blockages andincrease availability.Say goodbye to blocked pumps with SIMOCODE pro –the modular, compact motor management system that tacklesthe challenge by automatically reversing the pump.Another benefit: SIMOCODE pro can be retrofitted in existing plants.Every water utility is familiar with theproblems of a blocked pump – and thepossible consequences: environmentalharm, damage due to flooding, anddangers to health as a result of liftingand cleaning pumps. This is compounded by the financial impact ofplant downtimes. SIMOCODE promonitors the current and active powerof the pump motor – and derives thepump status from them. If a definedthreshold value is exceeded,SIMOCODE pro autonomously reverses the rotational direction of thepump in order to dislodge depositson the impeller blades, for example.SIMOCODE pro –The advantages at a glance6 inimized downtimes –Mwith less maintenance work nergy and cost savings over the entireEplant life cycle Simple use Scalable solution choice of networked or autonomousAconfiguration

Reliable monitoring. Dry-runningprotection reconceptualized.Reliable dry-running protection is a must in many applications in the chemical industry.SIMOCODE pro reliably prevents the dry running of centrifugal pumps in order to precludehazardous situations – and completely redefines dry-running protection for pumps inhazardous areas with an innovative solution.ControllerContinuous monitoringfor active power undershootActive power P [kW]MotorfeederMotor feederwithSIMOCODE proFlow Q [m³/h]Level sensorPumpConventional dry-running monitoring with a sensorPumpActive power-based dry-running protectionSensors on centrifugal pumps in hazardous areas are oftenprone to fault and are thus high-maintenance. The solution:Using active power-based dry-running detection, SIMOCODE promonitors the active electrical power consumption of thepump motor and thus the status of the pump – without theneed for additional monitoring devices or sensors to beinstalled. The new technology ensures reliable explosionprotection in accordance with ATEX and IECEx criteria andsaves costs and time for commissioning and maintenance.Your benefits through active power-baseddry-running protectionEarlier fault detectionReduction of hardware irect conclusions concerning the flow rate can be drawnDfrom the active power consumption of the pump motor o need for additional sensors and mechanicalNcomponents eliable prevention of dry running of the pump andRtherefore less damage to the pump Simplified engineeringCost and time savings o maintenance effort due to the elimination ofNmechanical wear of the sensors No additional sensor requiredReliable monitoring of the system Compliance with ATEX and IECEx criteria eliable and automatic pump shutdown in the event ofRinadmissible operating conditions7

SIMOCODE pro speaks to everyone.Including the Cloud.With the OPC UA industrial M2M communication protocol, SIMOCODE proprovides an additional communication interface that is independent of theautomation system.Digitalization for more economicaloperation: SIMOCODE pro withOPC UAThe open and supplier-independentcommunication via OPC UA guarantees the direct exchange of data withHMI panels or SCADA systems.
