Mobile Fieldbus Battery is a Versatile Power Supply

Setting up a fieldbus infrastructure often involves installation work at remote locations with limited access to fieldbus power sources. At the same time, the DCS and its associated infrastructure is far from being ready to perform remote fieldbus physical layer testing.

For the field technician, this would usually mean the lack of on-site device diagnostics needed to get the system up and running within the limited time available.

The new mobile fieldbus battery BP-FBPS-1.30.1 from Pepperl+Fuchs provides the power for on-site fieldbus diagnostics. It offers an adjustable output between 15 V and 30 V at 1 A max., making it the ideal match for the mobile Advanced Diagnostic Module (ADM). In combination with devices requiring up to 500 mA of power, the battery provides sufficient energy for up to 8 hours of on-site work without recharging. The rugged housing offers IP54 protection, making it splash proof and rain proof. The battery comes fully equipped with built-in tools, such as current display and over/undertermination.

With the new mobile Pepperl+Fuchs fieldbus battery, field technicians are able to power up any PROFIBUS PA and FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 infrastructure, test it with the ADM and create the associated documentation directly on site.

The new  mobile fieldbus battery BP-FBPS-1.30.1 is now available for immediate delivery.
