Fieldbus Components

 

FBCon fieldbus distributors are available in industrial and EEx (ia) versions. They are used for coupling 1–8 field devices or sensors.

 
Introduction

Find general information on fieldbus components from Weidmüller as well as an example for a system layout.

Profibus for the Ex-Area

A new concept for explosion protection in Europe.

PROFIBUS DP

The PROFIBUS topology is a line structure. The branches (T-pieces) connect the individual field devices or remote I/Os to the bus cable.

PROFIBUS-PA

The PROFIBUS-PA is an open fieldbus standard (EN 50170, IEC 1158-2, DIN 19245). It was specifically designed for the requirements of process engineering, such as remote powering and intrinsic safety.

PROFIBUS-PA ATEX

The PROFIBUS-PA T-connector in EEx (ia) specification is intended for direct coupling of measuring devices, sensors, actuators, etc. in potentially explosive areas.

Fieldbus Foundation

The Fieldbus Foundation is an open fieldbus standard. It was specially developed for the requirements of process industry technology, including remote supply and intrinsic safety.

FBCon DK6

The FBCon fieldbus connectors are used in process automation, to set up different bus topologies such as line, tree or star based on the fieldbus systems.
