Pepperl+Fuchs ASi-3 IIoT gateway

Click2Contact

The ASi-3 gateway from Pepperl+Fuchs enables parallel cloud communication and therefore simple data access for more process transparency. The REST API interface allows parallel implementation of IIoT applications and PLC communication. The multiprotocol-capable AS-Interface 3 gateway supports both Profinet and EtherNet/IP. All configuration and diagnostics are performed via a standard web browser, and deep knowledge of PLC programming is not required. The device also includes an SD card for data backup, on which all parameters are stored. It is designed to enable time-saving gateway configuration in the event of replacement, ensuring high plant availability through minimised downtime.

The ASi-3’s narrow housing design of 37.9 mm width saves space in the control cabinet and reduces associated costs. The gateway is available as a single or dual master for two ASi lines. A total of 31 (standard addressing) or 62 (extended address assignment) devices can be connected to one gateway. The devices can be flexibly connected to the gateway via a flat cable, providing power supply and communication.
