Hi all - off topic but anyway......
We are looking at installing a new bottle line and I am curious to hear what the trend is with frequency drive locations, ie remote mounted in teh field or in a MCC.
We have alway's mounted them in MCC's but they are networked (Devicenet). There appears to be a growing trend towards mounting them in the field and then wiring I/O direct topt he frequency drives.
From an installation poin this makes a lot of sense but from a maintenance point I am not sure.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Cheers
Peter
