Segment coupler for intrinsically safe
PROFIBUS PA segment
• PROFIBUS DP, EN 50170/2, RS
485: 93.75 kbit/s
• PROFIBUS PA [EEx ia] IIC;
PROFIBUS EN 50170/2; IEC 61158-
2: 31.25 kbit/s
• Master independent
• Up to 10 Ex devices can be
connected to the PA segment
• Supply via PA bus
• 24 V DC rated operational voltage
• Removable terminals and Power
Rail
• EMC acc. to NAMUR NE 21
The segment coupler couples an intrin-
sically safe PROFIBUS PA segment to
a PROFIBUS segment using RS 485
transfer technology in accordance with
EN 50170. The Profibus is standard-
ised in EN 50170/2.
The communication behaves transpar-
ently. The protocol is transferred un-
changed, therefore the segment cou-
pler can operate with each PROFIBUS
protocol and is not parameterised.
The baudrate of the intrinsically safe
PROFIBUS PA segment is 31.25
kbits/s in accordance with IEC 61158-2
The PROFIBUS segment with RS 485
transfer technology has a baudrate of
93.75 kbit/s. This baudrate is particular-
ly suitable for mixed operation with DP
and PROFIBUS PA stations.
Devices on the PROFIBUS PA are sup-
plied from the segment coupler via the
bus.
Please note!
On the segment coupler no supply volt-
age or other external voltage must be
applied to the PROFIBUS terminals.
