Distributed Fieldbus I/O System TB20 - Modular I/O Solution for a wide Variety of Fieldbus Worlds.

Beschreibung

With the TB20 I/O system you generate efficient and functional added value for a variety of application areas – irrespective of the fieldbus and proven in practice!

Three-component module design
TB20 I/O modules have three components: a separate front connector, an electronic module, and a base module. A locking mechanism ensures that all modules can be quickly mounted and securely attached on DIN rails while guaranteeing a reliable electrical connection. Likewise, all modules can be easily and quickly removed for maintenance and/or system expansions.
Modules are delivered as complete assembled units (i.e., as a single assembly) and can be installed immediately. This makes keeping expenisve special parts in stock obsolete.

Ideal handling, achieved with a compact design
The system’s ergonomic design makes it easy to handle. Moreover, the space-saving compact dimensions behind it do not take away from the system components’ heavy-duty sturdiness and reliable electrical contacts for industrial applications, which are further complemented by an IP20 protection rating. An optimal systems engineering breadth can be achieved through the use of modules with up to 16 digital or 8 analog channels and digital mix in/out modules.

Clear, unique labels
The system’s design ensures that each channel will be labeled clearly and uniquely, in a way that can be easily read during operation. This allows direct allocation of the terminal to the respective LED display. The labeling strips are suitable for laser printers.

Hot-Swap capability
Individual modules can be replaced quickly and easily while the rest of the system keeps running. The hot swap-compatible electronic module helps keep downtimes to a minimum.

The Powerful TB20 Distributed I/O System from Systeme Helmholz

The compact, modular and low cost I/O system provides connectivity to the leading networks in the world: ProfiBUS DP, ProfiNET, Ethernet IP, Modbus TCP, CanOpen and more!

Designed to reduce the number of part numbers required, the TB20 I/O system does not need a power module as it is integrated into the bus coupler.  The I/O modules are a three piece design including the base module, terminal block & the electronics and are available in densities from 2 points to 16 points allowing for up to 67% space savings over other I/O systems.  A total of 64 modules can be connected to an individual bus coupler.

The free TB20 Toolbox software can be used to design the configuration, simulate the I/O and provide diagnostic data.
