PowerFlex 7000 Overview
This is ideal for non-PLC users wanting to control and monitor remotely (e.g. at
the driven machine, control room, etc.). Also ideal for customers having policies
in place to control access to medium voltage equipment and the associated
requirements of PPE when using the operator interface at the VFD, etc.
Locally-mounted HMI
Similar to the existing PanelView 550, the HMI is mounted on the LV door of
the VFD. There is also a service access port (RJ-45 connector) on the LV door.
No HMI supplied
A service access port (RJ-45 connector) is located on the LV door of the VFD.
Customers use their own laptop as the HMI. All programs required to use the
laptop as the HMI are stored in the VFD. Their laptop is connected to the VFD
via a hardwired Ethernet cable, when required. This is ideal for unmanned sites,
where a dedicated HMI is not required.
