Product Description

The 3BP152 industrial backplane offers nine individual slots to accommodate system and I/O modules. With robust construction in a compact 165 x 360 x 23 mm chassis, it provides flexible control configuration for space-constrained cabinets. Independent slot architecture isolates each module's communication bus. This enables hot-swapping components without disruption. Power cycling is also unnecessary during module replacement. Seven of the slots support both system and I/O modules, while two expansion slots work with I/O modules. This versatility suits many application needs.

A specialized lithium battery retains critical data and parameter settings during power loss events. The integrated backup avoids data corruption or operational delays from unexpected outages. It also enables replacing primary power modules without reprogramming. 3BP152 carries global C-UL-US certification for hazardous locations. This assurance of safe electrical operation meets standards for Class I Division 2 protection. Reliable performance is further enhanced by the industrial -20 to +70 degrees C temperature rating.

The backplane architecture allows combining up to seven total modules distributed across available slots. Supported modules include analog and digital I/O, RS232/RS485 communication, and special function types like motion control or valve terminals. Flexible module configuration, hazardous area rating, and resilient battery backup make this a capable control platform. Tight integration and communication between modules enables synchronized operation. Convenient DIN rail and plugin wiring save installation time. Rugged materials withstand vibration, shock, and extreme temperatures in industrial environments. Screw terminals securely capture stripped wire ends. The low-profile design fits existing control cabinets with only 20 mm side clearance required.
