R. Stahl's new Advanced Fieldbus Power Supply (A-FPS) is said to be the first and only power supply module for Foundation fieldbus H1 segments to additionally provide a wide range of physical layer diagnosis functions. At a 10% premium over the standard supply module from the same series, the integrated devices enable complete and continuous plant monitoring.
In the past, the integration into asset management systems required separate, cost-intensive diagnosis modules and software tools. Each Advanced Fieldbus Power Supply (A-FPS) not only detects overload and short circuits on its segments, but also continuously registers the physical parameters of the fieldbus, such as voltage and current on the trunk, communication level, noise level, asymmetries and jitter.
