The Siemens 6GT2002-0ED00 is a sophisticated communication module designed for seamless integration into PROFIBUS DP-V1 networks. This module, known as the ASM456, is a vital component for industrial automation systems, enabling robust and reliable communication between read-write devices and the central controller.
Crafted with precision, the ASM456 supports two connectable read-write devices, facilitating efficient data exchange without the need for a connection block for PROFIBUS. Its compatibility with a range of Siemens RF200/300/600 and MV400/500 series, as well as MOBY D/E/I/U, makes it a versatile choice for various applications.
The module boasts a transfer rate ranging from 9.6 kbit/s to 12 Mbit/s with PROFIBUS, and up to 115.2 kbit/s for point-to-point serial connections. The RS422 interface design ensures a reliable and long-distance communication capability of up to 1000 meters.
Constructed from thermoplastic material reinforced with fibreglass (Valox 467), the ASM456 is designed to withstand harsh industrial environments. It operates within an ambient temperature range of 0 to 55 °C and is rated IP67 for protection against dust and water ingress, ensuring durability and longevity in challenging conditions.
The module requires a supply voltage of 24 V DC, with a typical current consumption of 0.08 A without connected devices and a maximum of 0.85 A with devices connected. Its compact dimensions, with a width of 60 mm, height of 30 mm, and depth of 210 mm, along with a net weight of 0.21 kg, allow for easy installation using two M5 screws.
For management and configuration, the ASM456 utilises GSD files and supports acyclic communication. It is programmed using function blocks FB 45, FB 55, FC 56, and an ID profile, with a library of functions available for streamlined integration.
The Siemens 6GT2002-0ED00 communication module is a reliable and efficient solution for industrial automation systems requiring robust communication capabilities within a PROFIBUS network.
