The CPX-FDVA-P is an electronic module for the CPX terminal
and works with the Profisafe fieldbus protocol, and it can be used with
Profinet bus nodes. This module, via Profisafe, can safely disconnect valve voltage
from the company's VTSA valves, completely integrated into the valve
terminal. This integration offers protection against unexpected
start-up, pressure and voltage zones shutdown, reversing motion and the
elimination of external wiring.
The CPX terminal has three digital output channels, two external and one
internal channel. The internal channel disconnects the power supply to
the valves and all three channels are self-monitoring dual channels.
This meets ISO13849 or SIL3 standards.
Applications include automotive, specifically welding benches for car
body production, gripping and clamping tools for robots and manual
workstations. Other applications with Profisafe are paper and printing
machines, packaging and material handling.
