What is the ET 200R distributed I/O Device?
Definition
The ET 200R distributed I/O device is a DP slave with a protection rating of IP65.
The design permits, among others, direct mounting on the Kempf box for the pro-
cessing of welding signals.
Application area
•
Its robust construction and IP65 protection rating make the ET 200R distributed
I/O device exceptionally suited to use in rugged industrial environments.
It was especially developed for use in the raw product manufacturing of the auto-
motive industry.
The ET 200R is used in the following applications:
•
On the fixed part of the robot (on the arm) to non-reactively couple or decouple
PROFIBUS and to control or monitor the tool coupling with relatively few digital
inputs and outputs
•
On the tool to control and monitor the handling or the welding procedure there
with relatively few digital inputs and outputs and to directly loop through the ana-
log signals of a welding tong to the welding controller. These two models will
now be called handling module and welding module.
•
Two versions are available:
-
Repeater or handling module (ET 200R-H)
-
Welding module (ET 200R-W) – same as the handling module but with floor
hole and place to plug in analog signals SKÜ and KSR as well as tempera-
ture input.
Features of the ET 200R
•
Compact design.
•
Suitable for rugged industrial environments.
•
Non-reactive coupling and decoupling of two PROFIBUS segments via inte-
grated repeater function.
•
8 parametrizable digital inputs/outputs
and
8 fixed digital inputs.
•
Compatible with the Kempf box (splitting box for welding applications).
•
The power supply for the electronics and encoder, PROFIBUS-DP and signal
lines are fed in a common cable to the first ET 200R and then on to the next ET
200R in another common cable.
•
The PROFIBUS address of the ET 200R can be set from 1 to 99 with two rotary
switches.
