SKU: SST-PFB-CLX
Allen-Bradley SST-PFB-CLX ControlLogix PROFIBUS DP Scanner Module
The Allen-Bradley SST-PFB-CLX is a ControlLogix PROFIBUS DP Master Scanner module that provides seamless integration between Rockwell controllers and PROFIBUS networks. It supports up to 12 Mbps data rates and features a dedicated configuration port for easy system setup.
Industrial Network Integration
The Allen-Bradley SST-PFB-CLX functions as a high-speed communication bridge that connects Rockwell Automation ControlLogix controllers to PROFIBUS DP networks. By acting as a master scanner, this module enables the PLC to control and monitor distributed field devices, such as motor drives, sensors, and remote I/O stations. This hardware effectively eliminates the compatibility gap between different automation standards, allowing engineers to maintain a unified ControlLogix architecture while utilizing specialized PROFIBUS-compliant equipment.
Operational Features and Diagnostics
This scanner module incorporates dual-port functionality to facilitate both network data exchange and local maintenance. The primary RS-485 port handles the PROFIBUS DP protocol, supporting baud rates up to 12 Mbps for rapid real-time response. Simultaneously, the dedicated RS-232 configuration port allows for direct PC connection, which simplifies firmware updates and network commissioning. Furthermore, the module utilizes a high-performance processor to manage complex cyclical data transfers, ensuring that the host ControlLogix CPU remains available for primary logic execution without being burdened by network overhead.
Reliability and System Power
Engineered for the rigorous demands of manufacturing and process industries, the SST-PFB-CLX draws power directly from the ControlLogix backplane. It operates with a current draw of 850mA at 5V DC and 1.75mA at 24V DC, maintaining thermal efficiency within the chassis. Because it supports remote rack configurations, users can deploy this module in various topologies to suit large-scale facility layouts. Additionally, the robust electrical isolation on the PROFIBUS port protects the backplane from electromagnetic interference and voltage spikes typically found in noisy industrial environments.
