Using a redundant control system can help you to reduce unplanned down time caused by failures, faults or system maintenance requirements. Usually, as your down time costs increase, so do your requirements for a redundant system. Logix Redundancy offers a high performance, synchronized, high availability system able to maintain uninterrupted control over critical applications with standard hardware while remaining easy-to-use. For some systems, the requirements for redundant systems will not be quite so critical. For those applications, we offer other redundancy systems based on performance and cost. This profile summarizes the available options.
