The Fieldgate SFG500 provides an independent access path to PROFIBUS networks; its broad range of applications is supported by various operating modes.
The wide range of Fieldgate SFG500 applications is supported by various operating modes; the operating mode is determined by the selected memory card (Fieldgate Module SFM500).
Benefits
PROFIBUS listener and master class 2: automatic integration into the PROFIBUS network and detection of all connected devices
HART supported via PROFIBUS: supports HART devices and performs device diagnostics
Web server: provides a clear network presentation and diagnostic information via web browser or FDT/DTM frame application
SFGNetwork DTM: finds SFG500 Fieldgates in the Ethernet and shows their PROFIBUS connections
Fieldgate Module SFM500: activates process value and diagnostics display
Application areas
Without a memory card, the Fieldgate SFG500 acts as a plant access interface, equivalent to an Ethernet gateway with adaptive PROFIBUS master class 2 functionality for supporting FDT-based plant asset management systems such as FieldCare.
With a plug-in memory card, device diagnostic information including the cause of the fault, the remedy and the process measured values of PROFIBUS and HART devices are displayed in the built-in web browser.
