ASi-5 cable duct motor modules – new housing, proven technology

Control up to four motorized rollers per module flexibly and cost-effectively

Use proven ASi-5 technology in the cable duct respectively in a new housing form. Our ASi-5 cable duct motor modules for the control of 2 or 4 motorized rollers have the same advantages as comparable Ethernet-based modules - but you also benefit from all ASi advantages.

 

Thanks to ASi, for example, you drastically reduce the wiring effort and gain topology freedom. ASi-5 enables, among other things, cyclic writing of speeds and ramps as well as complete diagnostics. Other advantages include the cost-effective and flexible integration of many motorized rollers, the simple implementation of zero pressure accumulation (ZPA), and the easy integration of safety technology in the same system. ASi-5 enables, among other things, cyclic writing of speeds and ramps as well as complete diagnostics.

 

With our ASi-5 cable duct motor modules, you can control 24 V and 48 V motorized rollers from various manufacturers (e.g. Interroll, Itoh Denki, RULMECA). Do you want to control motorized rollers especially cost-effectively and implement less demanding applications? Then discover our ASi-3 cable duct motor modules here.

Advantages of the ASi-5 cable duct motor modules

Classical
ASi advantages

You benefit from drastically reduced wiring effort, cost-effective commissioning, free choice of topology and technology that is compatible with almost all common fieldbus systems.

High data width,
short cycle time

By means of different profiles ASi-5 offers the possibility to adapt the process data. Optionally, 4, 8 or 14 bytes of process data are available - depending on the desired function. To control up to four motors simultaneously, the cycle time is only up to 1.27 ms.

 

Cyclic writing,
complete diagnostics

The high data width and short cycle times of ASi-5 enable cyclic writing of speeds and ramps. ASi-5 also offers a wide range of diagnostic options, e.g. to detect an output short circuit or to read the actual motor current.

Many motorized rollers can
be integrated cost-effectively

For four motors and eight sensors, you only need one cable duct motor module each, which in turn has only one ASi-5 address. Our 24 V and 48 V variants are suitable for Interroll, Itoh Denki and RULMECA, for example. Via the AUX line, 20 , 35 or even 50 watts are available. The modules for 2 motors can easily be combined with the variants for 4 motors. In this way, you always pay the minimum for the number of motors actually used.

Passive Safety
possible

You can easily integrate ASi Safety into your application. The modules are also suitable for passive safety up to SIL3/PLe. When the AUX voltage is switched off, actuators are no longer supplied. However, the sensors, which are still supplied via the yellow ASi cable, continue to transmit important diagnostic information.

Zero pressure accumulation (ZPA)
easy to implement

Depending on the motor module, you can implement 2 or 4 zones of zero pressure accumulation (ZPA) autonomously - without any programming effort and PLC quite simply via our PC software. The modules can also be combined with other ASi-5 motor modules.

 

Designed for the cable duct

  • Dimensions perfectly suited for cable duct
  • Optional ASi-5 addressing socket for easy addressing
  • Integrated cables for sensors and motors for easy, fast installation. Other cable lengths available on request
  • Easy diagnostics through various status LEDs (e.g. motor errors, inputs)
  • Protection class IP54
  • Application also possible in extreme temperature ranges (-30° to 70°)

 

Our cable duct motor modules all offer the same advantages - regardless of the number of motor connections. They can be easily mounted along the ASi profile cable via the supplied substructure module.
