Description
The Siemens Simatic OP 17 (6AV3617-1JC00-0AX1) is an industrial operator panel designed for real-time monitoring and process control within automated systems. It features a monochrome LED-backlit LC display capable of showing 4 lines by 20 characters or 8 lines by 40 characters. This interface allows plant personnel to execute commands, modify system parameters, and monitor diagnostic data, making it a reliable solution for localized process management in demanding industrial environments.
Features
- Integrated membrane keypad designed for high-duty cycles and resistance to industrial contaminants.
- Non-volatile memory for secure storage of alarm logs, function key assignments, and system parameters.
- Native drivers for direct communication with Simatic S5 automation controllers.
- Compact, robust housing suitable for panel-mount applications in harsh environments.
- Efficient 24 VDC power operation with low current consumption.
Applications
The OP 17 operator panel is widely utilized in sectors such as automotive assembly, oil refining, wastewater treatment, and mining control stations. It is intended for use where immediate localized process visibility and alarm handling are required to minimize downtime and improve operator response times.
