industrial remote supervision and control network.
It can be connected to a RS-485 network with a Profibus communication protocol, and allows of:
• Connect the trip units as slaves to the network, with dialog functionality.
• Command opening and closing of the circuit-breaker from remote.
• Provide information on the state of the circuit-breaker (open, closed, tripped).
• If mounted on a circuit-breaker in withdrawable version, detect the connected/disconnected position.
For more details about how to access information and transmit commands to the trip unit via the module,
consult chapter "System Interface" on page 155.
Remote opening and closing of the circuit-breaker can be performed only if the circuit-breaker is equipped
with an Ekip Com Actuator module (see page 243).
For applications in which a high network reliability is necessary, the module can be installed along with the
corresponding Redundant module.
The Redundant module is identical in terms of characteristics and installation, but its wiring is different from
the non-Redundant model.
IMPORTANT: on each circuit-breaker, only one Ekip Com Profibus DP, and only one
Ekip Com Profibus DP Redundant can be installed.
IMPORTANT: when the circuit-breaker is in the disconnected position, the trip unit
is disconnected from the module: in this condition, the only valid information
transmitted is:
• Connection of trip unit to Com module (Trip unit disconnected = disconnected).
• CB position (CB isolated / CB connected = CB isolated).
• Presence of com module ( = present; only valid for the module to which it is connected).
Further details are given in document
Interface for Emax 2), sections Status Global 1 [dlog], Status Accessories 1 and
Status Accessories 2.
The modules are always supplied with Ekip AUP and Ekip RTC contacts (see the chapter "16 - Other
accessories" on page 244).
require the presence of an Ekip Supply module in the first slot of the circuit-breaker terminal box.
