IntroductionThe Sensor Profibus Module is designed for industrial applications, excluding medical uses or scenarios where human safety is at risk. It is applicable in various sectors such as automotive, packaging, and manufacturing technology, among others.
Technical SpecificationsThe module is available in two versions: IP20 and IP65, each with specific protection levels. It supports strain gage inputs with configurable sensitivities and excitation voltages of 2.5V, 5V, or 10V. The module operates with a supply voltage of 20-36 VDC or 14-26 VAC, with a maximum power consumption of 6 VA. It features a 16-bit A/D conversion with a measurement rate of over 1 kHz.
Installation and ProtectionThe IP20 version is mounted on a 35 mm DIN rail, while the IP65 version uses four mounting holes. The IP20 version is protected against solid particles but not water, whereas the IP65 version is protected against dust and water jets. Both versions operate within an ambient temperature range of 0°C to +60°C.
Connections and InterfacesConnections are made via screw terminals and PG cable glands, with shielded cables recommended to prevent interference. The module includes Profibus and RS232 interfaces for configuration and data exchange.
Configuration and CalibrationAddressing can be configured via hardware or software, with addresses ranging from 01 to 99. Calibration can be performed using PC software, physical variables, or precision voltage sources. The module supports various calibration methods to ensure measurement accuracy.
Signal ProcessingThe module processes signals through an A/D converter controlled by a microprocessor, which linearizes, scales, and stores the signals for bus transmission. Configuration settings are stored in EEPROM to prevent data loss.
Operational GuidelinesBefore operation, ensure correct installation and grounding. The module's status is indicated by LEDs, and it must be protected against surge voltages. The module's configuration software is compatible with several Windows operating systems.
ConclusionThe Sensor Profibus Module is a versatile tool for industrial applications, offering robust signal processing and flexible configuration options. Proper installation and calibration are crucial for optimal performance.
Calibration of Strain Gage SensorsCalibration is essential to establish the relationship between electrical signals from sensors and the displayed measured values. A two-point calibration procedure is used, often supported by a test and calibration certificate. The calibration can be performed using various methods:
  • Teach-in Method: Involves setting lower and upper scale values by applying known weights.
  • Using Test Certificate: Direct entry of sensor data from the certificate into the Sensor Profibus Module.
  • Precision Voltage Source: Simulates sensor output using a precision voltage source.
  • Shunt Resistance: Least accurate, used for occasional checks by unbalancing the bridge with a shunt resistor.
Measurements Using PotentiometersCalibration is necessary to relate electrical signals to measured values. The connection details and sensor excitation voltage are specified in the test certificate. Calibration involves a two-stage teach-in method to set lower and upper scale values. Potentiometers may have dead regions where the signal does not change despite movement.
Measurements Using Reference Signals/TransmittersCalibration is similar to potentiometers, using a two-point procedure. The sensor excitation voltage is specified in the test certificate, and the input range must match the supply voltage. Calibration can be done using the teach-in method or directly from the test certificate.
Signal ProcessingThe A/D converter digitizes signals at a user-defined rate, with filter cut-off frequencies available from 5 to 400 Hz. Averaging can be used to increase measurement accuracy by reducing noise, with user-defined averaging periods. Reference measurements can be performed using calibration shunts, and digital outputs can be customized with threshold values for status monitoring.
Digital Input FunctionsThe document outlines various functions that can be assigned to digital inputs, such as performing tare, clearing tare, resetting evaluation, and inhibiting evaluation. Multiple functions can be assigned to a single input.
Monitor OutputThis output is used for input configuration with a potentiometer and should not be used for control purposes to avoid damage to the Sensor Profibus Module.
Instrument LED DisplayThe document describes the LED indicators on the instrument: the Idle LED indicates program execution status, the PROFIBUS LED shows data transfer status, and the ERROR LED signals errors or evaluation freezes.
Test MeasurementUsers can conduct test measurements and export data to Excel. The process includes starting and stopping measurements, displaying measured values, and setting evaluation limits. Advanced options allow for graphical display settings, device settings, and trigger settings for starting and stopping measurements.
Electromagnetic CompatibilityThe Sensor Profibus Modules meet EMC directives and bear the CE mark.
Profibus ConfigurationThe document details the RS485 interface, bus structure, number of bus stations, transmission speed, and bus cable specifications. It also covers bus connectors, terminating resistors, shielding, and equipotential bonding.
