Product Details

The Schneider 140CPU67160C conformal coated Unity hot standby processor module is a high-performance redundant dual-slot core control unit of Modicon Quantum PLC automation platform, designed for critical industrial processes in humid, dusty and corrosive environments that require bumpless switchover and uninterrupted system operation. This modicon quantum cpu module adopts a 32-bit RISC processor running at 266MHz clock frequency, equipped with 1024kB built-in RAM, and supports memory expansion via PCMCIA card to expand program and file storage space. The PCB circuit board is coated with Humiseal 1A33 conformal coating, which can effectively protect internal electronic components against moisture, dust and corrosive gas, ensuring stable continuous operation in chemical plants, offshore platforms and other severe industrial sites. It runs Unity operating system and fully supports IEC61131-3 standard programming languages, programmed via Unity Pro / EcoStruxure Control Expert software. It integrates dedicated multi-mode fiber optic hot standby port for real-time data synchronization between primary and standby CPUs. Once the master CPU fails, the standby unit can automatically complete bumpless switchover without interrupting production process. This CPU also carries one 10/100Mbps Ethernet port, one Modbus serial port and one Modbus Plus communication port, supporting data exchange with local I/O modules, S908 remote I/O stations, distributed I/O stations, HMI touch screens and other field automation equipment. It can support up to 2 local racks, maximum 31 S908 remote I/O stations and 63 distributed I/O stations over Modbus Plus network. The onboard Ethernet port supports TCP/IP communication, web diagnostic function and Ethernet remote I/O scanning. The module comes with a 2×16 LCD backlight display and key switch for memory protection, supporting high-speed interrupt input, event time stamping and high-precision counter functions. A hardware watchdog timer continuously monitors program execution status and triggers safety protection actions automatically once abnormal operation occurs. It occupies two adjacent slots on Quantum backplane rack and must be paired with another identical 140CPU67160C module to establish hot standby redundant architecture. This original Schneider product was discontinued on Feb 8,2021 and end-of-service on Dec 31,2026, widely stocked as spare replacement parts for maintenance and upgrade of legacy redundant industrial automation systems. It is widely deployed in power, petrochemical, natural gas pipeline, metallurgy, water treatment and manufacturing plants as redundant core controller for critical Modicon Quantum automation racks under harsh industrial environments.
