Short Description:
Distributed connections of sensors and actuators to the controller should be made directly in the machine room. The components require a certain specified class of protection against dirt, dust and moisture. Open fieldbuses such as CANopen, DeviceNet, Profibus DP and ETHERNET Powerlink™ have established themselves for distributed automation.
Features:
- Open for connection to standardized fieldbuses
- Flexible handling of I/O directly in the machine room
- High transfer rates and built-in technology functions
- Robust and resistant to disturbances
- Simple wiring, no cable trees
