Access to device information and device configurations through optimum connectivity for future-proof automation
First generation Axioline E
Axioline E is the remote I/O system with a block design for field installation with M12 connection technology. A key characteristic of these devices is their openness to all common Ethernet-based communication protocols as well as PROFIBUS with a T-coded power supply.
The Axioline P remote I/O system guarantees maximum availability for your application. With S2 redundancy, two PROFINET controllers can communicate with the I/O station at the same time.
When used in a Modbus TCP network, redundant communication can also be implemented using separate bus couplers, each with their own IP address.
The hot-swap-capable local bus enables the replacement of existing modules from an Axioline P I/O station without having to switch off the system. The electromechanical design of the bus socket means that you can actually remove several modules from the station simultaneously, even without disrupting local bus communication.
The intrinsically safe I/O modules can be installed in zone 2 and are suitable for the use of sensors as well as actuators up to zone 0. They feature HART communication and NAMUR functionality, making them particularly suitable for process automation applications.
Standard modules can be combined with intrinsically safe modules particularly easily in the Axioline P I/O system. By positioning a partition plate (available as an accessory), the blue intrinsically safe modules can be added to the end of a station.
With the power supply integrated into each I/O module, the setup of an Axioline P station does not require an additional power supply. Furthermore, hot-swap capability is established when modules are removed due to the permanently live bus sockets.
The modular station communicates with a PROFINET controller, for example a distributed control system (DCS), via a bus coupler. As an option, you can connect up to eight PROFIBUS PA segments to the individual proxy outlets in a compact way. To ensure the individual segments are immune to interference, appropriate shield connection technology is available. PROFIBUS PA sensors are connected directly to the modular Axioline P proxy.
Proven fieldbus technology, such as HART and Modbus/RTU, can therefore be integrated into PROFINET networks. This is done using PROFIBUS PA gateways that are connected to the modular Axioline P proxy.
Connection of Axioline P through to zone 0
Axioline P devices can be connected directly to a distributed control system (DCS) in the form of a remote I/O system. PROFINET S2 system redundancy is supported, which ensures very reliable communication between the I/O station and DCS.
The Axioline P system can be installed in zone 2, and allows a direct connection of sensor and actuator signals from zones 2, 1, and 0. The portfolio includes important functions for process automation, such as analog input and output modules for HART communication as well as digital input modules for connecting NAMUR sensors.
This allows you to integrate intrinsically safe modules into the I/O station without additional components.
