What is SIMOCODE pro?

SIMOCODE pro (SIRIUS Motor Management and Control Device) is a flexible and modular
motor management system for motors with constant speeds in low-voltage applications. It
optimizes the link between the control system and the motor feeder, increases plant
availability and allows significant savings to be made during installation, commissioning,
operation and maintenance. SIMOCODE pro is installed in the low-voltage switchgear
system and links the higher-level automation system and the motor feeder intelligently. It
comprises the following functions:
● Multifunctional and electronic full motor protection, independently of the
automation system
● Integrated control functions for motor control (instead of hardware)
● Detailed operating, service and diagnostics data
● Fail-safe shutdown up to SIL3 using fail-safe expansion modules
(High Performance units only)
● Open communication through PROFIBUS DP, PROFINET, Modbus RTU and EtherNet/IP
● Parameterization with the SIMOCODE ES (TIA Portal) software package
Only the switching and short-circuit protection mechanisms of the main circuit
(contactors, circuit breakers, fuses) are additionally needed.
