Profinet brings AC890 drives to Ethernet users
A
Parker Hannifin - Electromechanical and Drives Division product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team
Sep 29, 2009
Parker Hannifin has launched an open Ethernet-based networking communications module for its AC890 range of drives.
Profinet has made the functionality of the AC890 range available to users operating Ethernet-based process applications.
Profinet allows users operating Ethernet-based process applications to utilise Parker's AC890 drives
In addition to supporting the integration of all fieldbus systems, the module protects against unauthorised access and ensures safe operation.
Profinet uses TCP/IP and IT standards to support integrated communication from enterprise management to field level.
The module is capable of fast data handling and performance, with a maximum of 256 bytes each of input and output data.
Using CAT5 or CAT5E cable, Profinet can communicate over a maximum node-to-node distance of 100m.
The system can be factory fitted or installed on site.
Connection is made via a standard RJ45 Ethernet interface.
A GSD file is available for PLC integration and the module is software configurable for local or remote configuration over network.
Three status LEDs indicate network and module status, allowing communication errors to be detected and resolved quickly and simply.
Additional features include galvanically isolated bus electronics for improved safety, real-time (RT) Profinet IO for connections to other devices, and both web server and FTP server compatibility for fast remote access and configuration.
Profinet operates on 100Mbit/s network and supports RTNX protocol to connect to DSE software.
The Profinet module can be used with Parker's AC890CD common bus drive, AC890SD stand-alone drive and the AC890PX high-power drive series.
The AC890 range of modular AC drives can be combined to form a complete multi-section drive system.
The drives can control everything from induction motors to servo motors, and are available in a variety of sizes, ratings and I/O types, providing a drive system for any motion control application.
