CTI 2500 Series® Compact Programmable Automation Control System

2500 Series® Compact

OVERVIEW

The 2500 Series® Compact PAC System delivers all of

the performance and reliability of the 2500 Series®

Classic System in a significantly smaller form factor.

Featuring the same programming software and

instruction set, and the same communication, remote I/O

and data sharing protocols, the 2500 Series® common

architecture allows Compact System users to get up to

speed quickly using existing tools and diagnostics and to

integrate Compact Series products with other 2500

Series® products easily.

The 2500 Series® Compact System includes a family of

Processors comparable to our 2500 Series® Classic

Processors, as well as a wide range of digital, analog and

specialized I/O modules, power supplies, and bases.  The

Compact System works seamlessly with Classic 2500

Cxxx processors, as well as Simatic® 545 and 555

processors to manage everything from small discrete

control applications to large process applications with PID

loops, alarms, and special mathematical functions.  The

CTI approach to automation emphasizes continuous

evolutionary improvement, compatibility across

successive product generations and operational simplicity

to help customers optimize plant performance at the least

possible cost.

Small Package, Big Performance

The 2500 Series® Compact PAC system provides the

same functionality found in many larger systems, but in

a smaller form factor and at a lower cost.  The 2500

Series® Compact PAC system is fully compatible with all

other 2500 Series® products, ideal for mixing and

matching products from various product lines to best

meet application requirements.

Whether you’re building a machine or a new process

control system, the 2500 Series Compact® PAC System

offers:

• Choice of processors to fit your requirements

• Full-featured performance supporting up to 8192

I/O points and 512 PID loops

• Advanced functionality

• Hot swappable modules

• Multiple remote I/O network options

• Easy connection to other 2500 Series® products

FUTURE DEVELOPMENT

• Coprocessor modules providing high volume data

management and communication with major

industrial Ethernet protocols

• Support for redundancy in power supplies, remote

base controllers and CPUs
