The SIPLUS HCS716I heater control system was developed as a cost-optimized controller of heat emitter arrays in thermoforming machines. It is suitable for all generally available radiation devices such as quartz, quartz material, ceramic, halogen and infrared radiation devices.
The SIPLUS HCS716I can be used wherever low-cost, resistive loads of small to medium output require switching in an industrial environment.
The SIPLUS HCS716I family comprises three racks and three power output modules.

LA716I power output module
The SIPLUS HCS716I heater control system is used, for example, to switch the small and medium output heat emitter arrays in thermoforming machines, drying ovens and packaging machines.
The SIPLUS HCS716I is a distributed I/O unit (slave) that communicates over the PROFIBUS DP fieldbus with a higher-level control system (master) such as SIMATIC S7/SIMOTION.
