Power Connection
WARNING
Safety First! Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and common wire.
Observe all electrical codes dictating the maximum current allowable for each wire size. If the
current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could overheat, causing serious damage to
your equipment.
The fiber-optic signal cables for the FreeCon Active PROFINET-POF-Media Converter can be routed in a
single cabling channel together with the power cabling. The cabling should be implemented in accordance
with the PROFINET Installation Guideline for Cabling and Assembly
(„
PROFINET Cabling and
Interconnection Technology
).
We recommend labeling the wiring to all connected devices.
Use Weidmüller’s
IE-PS-VAPM-24V
power plug (order number 1068910000) to connect to the FreeCon
Active PROFINET-POF-Media Converter.
