Potential Relationships
7.2.1
General
The potential relationship of a CANopen system realized with BL20 modules is characterized by the
following:
The system’s power supply to the gateway, I/O modules and the field level is distributed via a Bus
Refreshing module.
All BL20 modules (gateway, Bus Refreshing, Power Feeding and I/O modules), are connected
capacitively via base modules to the mounting rails.
Separate power supplies for the system and the field level allow a potential-free installation.
The block diagram shows the arrangement of a typical BL20 station.
7.2.2
Potential-Free Installation
In a potential-free installation, the reference potentials of control and load circuitry are galvanically
isolated from each other.
A potential-free installation is necessary with
All AC load circuits (for example, when using the Power Feeding module BL20-PF-120/230VAC-D)
Floating DC load circuits
The potential-free installation does not depend on the method of grounding.
7.2.3
Non-isolated Installation
In a non-isolated installation, the reference potentials of the control and load circuitry are galvanically
connected.
