Product Description
The CX8031 programmable PROFIBUS DP Slave controller can be used for different applications, like processing PLC programs or as slave device. In addition to this, the CX8031 provides and automatic baud-rate detection. In its basic version, the CX8031 controller has a 512 MB MicroSD card. In addition to this, the controller has an Ethernet Interface, E-bus or K-bus. The CX8031 controller has an Ethernet Connection, through which it’s programmed and configured, as well as PROFIBUS master interface on an RS485 basis, that has a D-sub connection. One notable thing about the CX8031 controller is that it has 3 virtual slaves, but only a single slave is used. The PROFIBUS address on this controller is configured through two rotary selection switches, and also automatically detects the type of I/O system connected to it during its start-up phase. It can be purchased from Wake Industrial with a one-year warranty.
The CX8031 controller is designed to be installed on a DIN rail in either a terminal box or control cabinet. The controller can be used with Bus Terminals to analog or digital signals or sensors, and then transfer them to higher-level controllers or actuators. It has been designed for operating environments with an IP 20 protection class. This involved protection against any foreign solid objects with a size of up to 12.5 mm, as well as finger protection. The controller must not be installed in dusty and wet environments, unless stated otherwise.
The installation of the CX8031 must be done in a housing that provides an IP 54 protection class for gas—this is according to the 60079-15 specifications. An IP 54 protection class housing is needed for non-conductive dust. According to EN 60070-31, IP 6X, on the other hand, is needed for conductive dust.
