Panasonic / Sunx FPΣ

32 k steps: Approx. 2.7 times bigger than our conventional model
More advanced and complex control is required for PLCs in accordance with equipment functionality enhancements, such as the support of multi-axial positioning, multi-point temperature control, serial communications, or networking. A greater programming memory capacity is thus being increasingly required, even for compact models. FPΣ V3 has a programming capacity of 32 k steps, which is approx. 2.7 times bigger than our conventional model and can accommodate an increase in the number and complexity of programs without difficulty.

High-speed operation

0.32 μsec/step for basic instructions:
Approx. 1.2 times faster than our conventional model
Upgraded equipment also requires an increase in the operation speed of PLCs to process increased programs in addition to the expansion of the program memory. FPΣ V3 is compact in size but equipped with a RISC processor. The basic instruction operation speed is 0.32 µs/step, which is 1.2 times faster than our conventional model. The speed of high-level instruction operations, including floating point operations, is also high, reducing the total scan time.
