Whenever safe and standard signals need to be collected in the field, high-end sensors need to be connected, more complex safety applications need to be solved, a variety of safe bits need to be transmitted from different nodes, or diagnostic and additional information need to be utilized, ASi-5 Safety is the perfect complement to ASi Safety at Work. With the ASi-5/ASi-3 EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP Gateway (BWU3958) from Bihl+Wiedemann with integrated ASi-5/ASi-3 Safety Monitor, the new safety generation of AS-Interface, which is compatible with all previous ASi devices and components and which operates parallel to ASi-3 Safety on the same infrastructure, can be easily integrated into existing applications.
The gateway features two ASi-5/ASi-3 masters, enabling simultaneous communication as an ASi-5 master and an ASi-3 master in two ASi networks. Additionally, it includes three 2-channel safe inputs, six safe outputs, Safe Link, OPC UA interface, REST API for IIoT applications, and an integrated web server for simple diagnostics and maintenance. Beyond functional enhancements, users also benefit from the modern 16 gigabyte chip card, which can now store an entire project, including safety and hardware configurations, parameter data of connected devices, and user comments from ASIMON360. In addition to BWU3958, the current product range of Bihl+Wiedemann also includes the ASi-5/ASi-3 EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP Gateways with integrated ASi-5/ASi-3 Safety Monitor with two ASi-5/ASi-3 Masters (BWU3947) or with one ASi-5/ASi-3 Master (BWU3957), as well as the ASi-5/ASi-3 EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP Gateway with integrated ASi-3 Safety Monitor and two ASi-5/ASi-3 Masters (BWU3825). Also available are various EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP gateways for ASi-5 and ASi-3 without safety communication and safe fieldbus, for one or two ASi networks, with local I/Os or without.
