Connection Device Fieldbus
Easy fieldbus integration
The fieldbus modules of the connection device fieldbus (CDF) product family allow for fast and simple integration of 4Dpro identification sensors into industrial networks. Different variants are available with different fieldbus interfaces. The external connection module can be assembled on all industry-standard profiles, leaving the status LEDs clearly visible for effective diagnostics. Bus address and operating mode can be set directly on the module using rotary encoding switches without the use of configuration software. While the CDF can be integrated at an easily accessible point in the conveying equipment, the 4Dpro sensor (e.g. the CLV615-F), which is connected with only one cable, enables mounting deep in the system.
Benefits
Sophisticated screw system for quick, flexible mounting on all common profiles
Choice of different variants for connecting to industrial fieldbuses
Encoding switch easily accessible from the outside for easy setting of bus address and operating mode without complex software
Status LEDs can be read from any angle for simple and effective diagnostics (type-dependent)
Fast installation and easy replacement in the system thanks to plug-in connections
Integrated memory for all parameters of the connected sensor for very fast replacement time in case of faults
Compact and rugged design with choice of horizontal or vertical cable direction (type-dependent)
