Product Description

The B&R 3IF789.9 communication module is a reliable and flexible module developed to meet the challenges of industrial automation networks. With two interfaces, it has an X2X Link master and a POWERLINK interface that can work as a managing or controlled node. This dual functionality facilitates deployment in various system structures and improves communication and management of industrial devices connected to a network.

This device has data transfer rates of up to 100 Mbit/s on the POWERLINK interface. It also facilitates quick communication which is vital in real-time industrial operations. The electrical isolation between interfaces and the PLC to interfaces reduces risks of electrical interference to the system hence enhancing data integrity and system stability. The diagnostic capabilities of the 3IF789. 9 are advanced, with status LEDs and software-based tools to monitor the status of POWERLINK stations and overall network activity. Such features enable quick identification and problem-solving and thus help minimize downtime and enhance the operation. The module's energy efficiency is high with a total power consumption of 2. 8W makes it suitable for long-term industrial use as it only consumes power. The module is built with durability in mind and can withstand challenging conditions, performing optimally in temperatures from 0 to 60 degrees C with an IP20 protection rating.

It is also compliant with several international standards and has been certified by CE, UKCA, UL, and KC marking agencies. The B&R 3IF789.9 communication module is an ideal solution for industries that need a stable and efficient communication module that can be easily integrated into large-scale automation systems. Due to its fast data transfer rate, modularity, and comprehensive diagnostic functions, it is an essential part of advancing Industrial Automation systems. The product is available at Wake Industrial with a one-year warranty period.
