Positioners and Process Controllers Type 8692 / 8693 + 8792 / 8793
Facts for Decision Makers:
- efficient communication
- Ethernet/IP
- Profinet
The new positioners and controllers support EtherNet/IP, Profinet (Conformance Class B (CC-B)) and Modbus TCP. The protocols enable extensive diagnostics functions (e.g. monitoring, limit value definition of operating parameters; messages in accordance with Namur NE107) and thus improve plant availability. The integrated two-port switch allows for star, line and ring topologies and, thanks to MRP and DLR, ensures fail-safe communication right up to the valve. The integrated büS interface facilitates efficient communication between individual sensors and actuators of the Bürkert device platform (EDIP). This enables rapid networking of system solutions. All platform participants can be parameterised and configured via the standard software tool “Communicator”.
