Profibus PA / Foundation Fieldbus

For standard industrial applications (non-hazardous areas), PROFIBUS PA junction boxes and limiters are available as 1-way, 2-way, 4-way, and 8-way distributors.

FBCon limiters are designed to protect connected field devices from over voltages and short circuits. As voltage-limiting protective elements, suppressor diodes are used. Due to the integrated current limitation, the segment is also protected against short circuit on a spur line.

EMC cable glands, protection class IP66 and a wide operating temperature range safely protect your connections in harsh environments.
