Meter Bus Gateway TROVIS 5488

Product catalog summary
Overview: The TROVIS 5488 Meter Bus Gateway facilitates the integration of heat, energy, and water meters into control systems by converting meter data into Modbus data. It supports up to 32 meters conforming to EN 1434-3 and includes 16 inputs for pulse counting.
Specifications: The gateway operates with a supply of 230 V AC and supports a temperature range of 0 to 40 °C for operation. It features IP40 protection and complies with various standards for noise emission and immunity. The device weighs approximately 0.6 kg.
Communication: The gateway includes an RS-232 interface for modem or PC connection, allowing for configuration data exchange and firmware updates. It supports Modbus communication with specific function codes and transfer rates ranging from 150 to 19200 baud.
Operation: The device is operated via a front panel with a Plexiglas door, featuring keys for navigation and configuration. It has a display level for status information and a configuration level for setting parameters.
Installation: The gateway can be wall or panel mounted, with provisions for top-hat rail mounting. Proper installation requires adherence to standards for lightning and overvoltage protection, and correct bus line shielding.
Modbus Protocol: The gateway uses the Modbus protocol with a master/slave principle, supporting a maximum of 32 devices per segment and a bus range of up to 7200 m. It requires screened twisted pair cables for data transmission.
Meter Bus Topology: The M-Bus system supports various topologies with a maximum segment length of 1000 m and a stub distance of 350 m. It includes reverse polarity and short-circuit protection.
Figures and Diagrams: The document includes diagrams illustrating the master-slave voltage/current pulse and terminal assignments for the gateway.

Meter Bus Gateway TROVIS 5488-1

Application Used in HVAC networks to integrate M-Bus meters and pulse counters into a control system The meter bus plug-in module enables simple connection of heat or energy meters as well as water meters to the meter bus gateway. A maximum of 32 meters conforming to EN 1434-3 may be connected for data transfer. Additionally, the meter bus gateway is equipped with 16 inputs for pulse counting, e.g. from heat or water meters. The meter bus gateway converts the read or recorded data into Modbus data. This allows the meters to be integrated into a control system. Modern control systems, e.g. the TROVIS building control system from SAMSON, visualize and log the meter data, e.g. for billing purposes.
