Emerson’s New Compact PLC Wins Product of the Year from Control Engineering China

 The premier annual product selection event in China's industrial control automation field – CONTROL ENGINEERING China 2022 (18th) Annual Best Product Award Ceremony was held online, with more than 2,000 industry participants from around the world. We’re delighted to announce that the Emerson PACSystemsTM RSTi-EP CPE200 series compact PLC won the prestigious award in the PLC and edge controller class.

Innovation was a key criteria for the award, and the PACSystems RSTi-EP CPE200 series fits the bill. Packing high performance in a very small package, the new PLC makes big gains in asset performance and productivity in small spaces. The new design also directly addresses other daily challenges for both OEMs and end users. With security-by-design, open programming, and open communications built in, the compact controller helps meet the needs of a new generation workforce, the growing impact of hacking, and the need to address complex supply chains with greater flexibility. The RSTi-EP CPE200 compact controller series simplifies connectivity to traditional sensors and actuators as well as external analytics software platforms while reducing cost and complexity for OEMs and end users.

RSTi-EP CPUs make it possible to incorporate the entire PACSystems suite in stand-alone applications or as auxiliary control in larger process applications that use RX3i. This simplifies training for operators and maintenance workers and streamlines application development and integration. Advanced security and PROFINET I/O solutions make compact controllers from PACSystems the perfect way to enhance workflow.
