Product Details

The Schneider 140CPU67260 Unity hot standby processor module is a high-capacity redundant dual-slot core control unit of Modicon Quantum PLC automation platform, built for large and complex industrial process control systems requiring bumpless switchover and uninterrupted operation. This modicon quantum cpu module adopts a 32-bit RISC processor running at 266MHz clock frequency, equipped with 3072kB built-in RAM, and supports memory expansion via PCMCIA card up to 7168kB program memory and 8MB file storage. It runs Unity operating system and fully supports IEC61131-3 standard programming languages, programmed via Unity Pro / EcoStruxure Control Expert software. The module 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 140CPU67260 module to establish hot standby redundant architecture. This original Schneider product was discontinued on Dec 31,2018 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 large complex Modicon Quantum automation racks.
