Product Description:

The B & R Automation 5LS187 is a module of the 5LS series that provides a wide range of connection types and boosts the operation of automated industrial applications. It has 1 MB of Battery Backed SRAM to ensure that data that has been stored is intact even in the case of power loss. The SRAM with battery backup makes the 5LS187 a reliable technology for industrial use.

This module has the housing with the IP20 degree of protection, which implies that the module is protected against solid particles - the module is not protected against water. Such a degree of protection enables the 5LS187 to be used in areas of industry where the exposure to liquids is minimal. This is due to the fact that the temperature variety is between 0 to 55 degrees C, this environment is conducive for the proper working of the module in different conditions. Regarding storage, the 5LS187 can work at the temperature range of -25 to 70 degrees C depending on the different industries.

The most notable aspect of the 5LS187 is in the area of communication. It includes a CAN bus communication module and supports POWERLINK (V1/V2) interfaces that can be in the managing or the controlled devices. It assists in the correct interfacing of these complex automation systems besides aiding in the transfer of information between the systems. It also has auto-MDI/MDIX that enables automatic detection of MDI and MDIX to facilitate the correct connection of the network devices and auto-sensing features to ensure that the transmission rate of network connections is optimal and connections are easy to make. The power dissipation of the 5LS187 module is 4 W. The low power consumption makes the 5LS187 module inexpensive to run, hence its operational cost will be low despite its high performance. Diagnostic features of the 5LS187 are also impressive; bus function diagnostics are possible through LED status indicators and software. These diagnostics are performed in real-time and give a possibility to detect any problems in order to solve them as fast as possible to prevent additional losses.
