AS-Interface Gateway

Product description:

AS-Interface is a worldwide standard for the cost-effective transfer of power and signals along a single cable. The master with gateway-function controls the AS-Interface system and transmits process data to all types of higher-level control in a standardized I/O map. All diagnostic information from the field I/O and the safety system can be transmitted to a higher level control system. These ensure high availability of fieldbus in the factory automation system.

• Minimized installation costs and connection via insulation piercing technology
• Topology-free installation
• Supply, safe and non-safe signals on one cable
• Safety function up to PLe/SIL 3
• Extensive diagnostic function
• Automatic addressing when a device is replaced
• Flexible system extensions
• Compatible with all fieldbuses and PLCs

Gateways are modules that form an interface between the AS-Interface and higher-level buses. Gateways can be installed to provide a solution for complex applications using standard products. The gateways act as a slave for the higher-level bus. There are various AS-Interfaces gateway options with remarkable benefits selectable based on applications:

• connection to PROFINET IO or PROFIBUS DP
• Ethernet or RS 232 diagnosis interface
• AS-Interface noise detection
• duplicate addressing detection
• earth fault detection
• dual AS-Interface networks
• integrated data decoupling
• integrated webserver
• compact stainless steel housing
• fault diagnosis via LEDs and graphic display
