ASi EtherCAT Gateways - High Availability and Ideal for Beckhoff PLC

EtherCAT Gateways with and without integrated Safety Monitor available in large quantities

You are looking for ASi gateways – with or without FSoE interface – to connect AS-Interface (ASi) to an EtherCAT control? And you want to implement functional safety without a higher-level safe control? Then you will find suitable devices from us.

For standard applications:

ASi EtherCAT Gateways without integrated Safety monitor

We recommend the "Bihl+Wiedemann's Choice" articles BWU3854, BWU4790 and BWU2720 for almost all standard applications. Here you also benefit from our new power supply generation.

BWU3854

  • 1 ASi network, 1 ASi-5/ASi-3 Master

  • Integrated decoupling

  • Max. 4 A per ASi network

  • Ethernet diagnostic
  • OPC UA interface and integrated webserver for easy diagnostics and maintenance

BWU4790

  • 1 ASi circuit, 1 ASi-5/ASi-3 Master

  • integrated decoupling

  • max. 8 A per ASi circuit

  • Ethernet diagnostic
  • OPC UA interface and integrated webserver for easy diagnostics and maintenance

BWU2720

  • 2 ASi networks, 2 ASi-3 Masters

  • Integrated decoupling

  • Max. 4 A per ASi network

  • Ethernet diagnostic

For Safety applications:

ASi-3 EtherCAT Gateways with integrated Safety Monitor

For applications with functional safety without higher-level safe control, we recommend our ASi EtherCAT gateways with integrated safety monitor. They are available with 1 ASi network or 2 ASi networks.

BWU3991

  • 1 ASi circuit, 1 ASi-5/ASi-3 Master
  • integrated decoupling
  • Max. 4 A per ASi network
  • Ethernet diagnostic

  • Safety communication via Safe Link

BWU2944

  • 2 ASi networks, 2 ASi-3 Masters
  • Integrated decoupling
  • Max. 4 A per ASi network 
  • Ethernet diagnostic 
  • Safety communication via Safe Link

For Safety over EtherCAT applications:

ASi-5/ASi-3 Safety over EtherCAT Gateways

For applications in which Safety over EtherCAT (FSoE) devices are to be integrated without a higher-level safety controller, we recommend our ASi-5 Safety over EtherCAT Gateways. With the integrated FSoE master function, for example, up to 32 FSoE drives can be safely switched off directly.

BWU3583

  • 1 ASi network, 1 ASi-5/ASi-3 Master
  • Integrated decoupling
  • Max. 4 A per ASi network 
  • Ethernet diagnostic
  • Safety communication via FSoE + Safe Link

BWU3858

  • 2 ASi networks, 2 ASi-5/ASi-3 Masters
  • Integrated decoupling
  • Max. 4 A per ASi network 
  • Ethernet diagnostic
  • Safety communication via FSoE + Safe Link
