Product description
The following advantages are to be had by using the UE4155 bus node:
cost-savings on purchase: The components to be connected do not have to have their
own PROFIBUS slave.
improved use of PROFIBUS capacity: Only one PROFIBUS slave is necessary for several
components of an application.
integration of
all
the functions of present and future SICK safety components with an
SDL interface without loss of functionality
lower cost of wiring on the PROFIBUS side as several components are connected as a
PROFIBUS user

components connected to the SDL and field-signal
connections
SDL
connections
To connect safety components to SICK device
communication and/or OSSDs
Field-signal
connections
To connect OSSDs and passive components, e.g.
switches fitted with contacts to voltage-free
contacts
1 field-signal connection = 2 channels
(2 safety inputs and 2 outputs)
Connections can be shared by a two-way splitter
