The nanoLine control solution from Phoenix Contact is a widely-configurable and easy-to-program control platform. The modular product can be used in a variety of industrial sectors to perform simple control tasks without complex mathematical and control operations. Numerous communication interfaces for remote control and monitoring make it easy to integrate the nanoLine into company networks.
The platform is compact and affordable
The use of a nanoLine-based system is driven primarily by the economic factors resulting from reduced development times, which can be attributed to the nanoNavigator programming tool. The flowcharts required to implement the functions of this solution can be created quickly and easily with very few commands. The modular expandability of the base unit allows the user to adapt the control system to changing application conditions or requirements without having to develop a completely new solution.

Editor's Choice PLCs, DCSs & Controllers
Many process engineers do not appreciate the importance of flow loops in their unit controls. A senior process engineer once told me that flow loops need not be tuned well, as they generally have little effect on the more important and much slower loops like temperatures and pressures.

PLCs, DCSs & Controllers
Data acquisition, data logging and data analysis are required functions for most modern industrial control systems. The simplest and lowest cost way to provide these functions is often by using the same platform that’s providing real-time control, namely the PLC or the programmable automation controller.
