P&C Protection & Control

RTU / 20AN Redundant

AutoLog® 20AN RTU Redundant.

High-availability variant of the AutoLog® 20AN platform. Redundant PLC and redundant I/O — the active PLC switches automatically on failure. Designed for the applications where unplanned downtime is unacceptable: oil & gas wellheads, line-break valve stations, pipeline cathodic protection and integrated SCADA sites. Same modular expansion ceiling as the standard 20AN (up to 72 AI / 34 AO / 72 DI / 72 DO), same selection of communication networks. Made in Finland, verified operating range −30 to +70 °C.

AutoLog® 20AN RTU Redundant

High-availability RTU · Redundant PLC + I/O · Auto-failover

20AN platform configured for redundant operation: two PLC controllers and duplicated I/O, with automatic failover from active to standby on detected failure. Same on-board I/O density as the standard 20AN (8 DI / 8 DO / 0-8 AI / 0-2 AO) and the same five-card I²C expansion ceiling (72 AI / 34 AO / 72 DI / 72 DO). Communicates over AutoLog WSN radio, Modbus TCP, GSM or TETRA. Web Studio SCADA on the control-room side. Typical deployments: pipeline cathodic protection, wellhead and line-break-valve control, integrated oil & gas SCADA cabinets.
