Function
Special CP field bus nodes and CP modules
are available for the various field buses.
These provide the connection to certain
field buses.
These offer connections for up to four
strings to which I/O modules and CP
valve terminals are connected.
These transmit control signals to the
connected modules and monitor their
functioning.
These provide different valve functions
via valve plates for controlling pneu
matic actuators.
Relay plates, pressure zone separation
plates and blanking plates can also be
fitted.
These provide inputs for connecting
sensors and enable e.g. cylinder
positions to be scanned.
These provide universal electric outputs
for controlling low−current consuming
devices (further valves, bulbs etc.).
