Building a safe and secure embedded world

PROFINET to PROFIBUS DP/PA Master Gateway (pnGate PB)

Access to PROFIBUS DP/PA devices through virtual mapping as modular PROFINET device

  • pnGate PB re-uses power conditioners in technology upgrade projects
  • No PROFIBUS DP Intermediate Segment required
  • Prepared for Integration in Standard Engineering and Plant Asset Management Tools

Key Component for Transition to State-of-the-Art Technology

  • Simple replacement of installed PROFIBUS DP/PA segment coupler
  • Re-use of existing PROFIBUS segments without requiring modification
  • Support of PROFINET redundancy for increased reliability

Direct Connectivity to PROFIBUS Segments

  • Single access point to PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS PA segments from PROFINET networks
  • Acting as PROFINET Device, PROFIBUS PA and PROFIBUS DP Master
  • Support of one PROFIBUS DP segment and up to two PROFIBUS PA segments

Configuration, Parameterization and Plant Asset Management Using Standard Industry Tools

  • Supports major PROFINET engineering tools such as TIA Portal, Step7 and PC WORXS
  • Included CommDTM allowing use in FDT/DTM frame applications
  • EDD-based device parametrization using Siemens Simatic PDM
