Introduction

The RTU32M is a modular version of Brodersen’s control system platform RTU32 series, that is based on an embedded 32-bit industrial platform providing flexible RTU functionality for a wide range of remote monitoring and control applications in the utility and infrastructure markets.

Each RTU32M comprises a CPU module (MP32A), a power supply module, and the desired mix of IO modules and system modules, as required.

The RTU32M supports a variety of standard and open protocols such as Modbus, IEC60870, IEC61850, and DNP3. It also includes the fast event-based Binding protocol – a fast and reliable way to distribute time-stamped event data between any Brodersen RTU32M in the network.

The RTU32M CPU module (MP32A) has a web server configuration interface for the setup of the RTU ‘personality’ eg. IP address, IO range, slave address, etc. Additional RTU functionality, including logic, messaging, and logging are configured in the Brodersen Worksuite. The RTU32M CPU module (MP32A) supports up to 60 I/O modules.

APPLICATION

RTU32M – with advanced PLC functionality suitable for plant applications:

  • Secure local and remote access to configuration and diagnostics
  • Small footprint, high density modular I/O
  • Failsafe, hot swap, smart I/O
  • Online logic changes (including application restart with outputs held)
  • Distributed I/O (segmented bus)
  • Remote I/O (serial and LAN based I/O – remote CPUs have no logic app or options)
  • Redundancy options (multiple power supplies, CPUs, I/O, LANs etc)
  • Global variable ‘binding’ allows fast setup of a single plant wide logic application
  • Future proof (option to include logic/smarts in the remote RTUs, when needs change)
  • Modern platform, ensuring longevity and continued development of functionality (including new module types).
