Comprised of a fieldbus module, junction, and safe sensor technology, the Safety Device Diagnostics system enables a wide range of sensor data to be called up quickly even over distance. The conventional signal contacts on the safety devices are automatically activated by the fieldbus module and enabled for the diagnostic system.
The system significantly reduces service operations while increasing productivity.
- Extensive diagnostics to avoid service operations and to reduce downtimes – e.g. by remote diagnostics via web server
- Information is received directly via the integrated display on the fieldbus module
- Quick and easy installation
- Third-party devices can be connected directly via the I/Os on the fieldbus module
- The system consists of a fieldbus module, a junction box, and safety devices
- Automatic activation of safety devices by the fieldbus module
- Suitable for 16 sensors wired in series or individually wired
- 6 additional configurable I/Os
- Cable lengths: Total of max. 0.5 mile (900 m), 164 ft (50 m) from device 1 to device 2, 492 ft (150 m) from the last device to the communication module
