3.2 Areas of application
SIMATIC IPC627C
14 Operating Instructions, 11/2010, A5E02669068-02
3.2 Areas of application
The SIMATIC Box IPC627C provides engineers building machines, plants and switch
cabinets with a high-performance, expandable PC platform for industrial application on the
plant floor:
● Measurement, controlling and regulation of process and machine data, for example, for
redundant process control systems and transport systems in production facilities
● Operating and visualization tasks with separate display / monitor solutions, for example,
large-scale displays in automotive production
● Data logging and processing, for example, production data logging, distributed process
control
The SIMATIC IPC627C has CE certification for use in the industrial sector as well as in
residential and commercial areas, and small businesses. In addition to industrial
applications, it can also be used in building services automation or in facilities open to the
public.
3.3 Benefits
Reduction in standstill times thanks to high system availability
● Efficient self-diagnostics (SIMATIC PC DiagMonitor ≥ V 4.2, optionally available)
● Solutions for data security (preventative data backups, SIMATIC IPC Image & Partition
Creator, optionally available)
● Service-friendly design (modifications, servicing)
● Additional hardware and software options (secondary hard disk or RAID1 configuration)
Cost reductions through high investment security
● High product continuity through long-term secure functionality in hardware and software
(support for legacy interfaces)
● Secure replacement availability of the components (5 years)
Reduced costs through high industrial functionality
● High industrial capability through extremely robust design, even against strong vibration
and impact loads, and with high ambient temperatures (ventilation design)
● Totally Integrated Automation (TIA) components including integrated PROFIBUS/MPI
interface (optional), PROFINET interface (optional) and Ethernet interface, system-tested
SIMATIC software package
● Sufficient flexibility and expandability (2 free slots) in the most compact space
PEG graphics and onboard graphics can be used at the same time
Cost minimization through time savings
● Configured, turn-key systems
● Preinstalled operating systems for fast commissioning
● Integrated interfaces for communication on the field or process control level
