SIMATIC Panel PC 677/677B in distributed configuration

Employing the SIMATIC Panel PC Remote Kit you can mount the computing and operating unit separately - even when retrofitting an existing PC 677/677B.

You just have to separate the operating unit from the computing unit, attach the Remote Kit to the operating unit and reconnect it with the computing unit by using the delivered cables.

This way you can realize PC-based solutions for visualization and control tasks under conditions that require a decentralized configuration, e.g. when mounting a PC onto a cantilevered swivel where etreme acceleration may occur and less weight is recommended.

The Remote-Kit fits all PC 677 devices and can be ordered in different options with a 24 V DC or 110/220V AC power supply and cables from 5 to 30m.
