Тип продукта: 3-way Isolated RS485 Repeater (with ATEX explosion-proof certification)

Mounting Standard: DIN EN 60715 TH35 standard rail

Класс защиты: IP20 (Indoor cabinet use only)

Applicable Environment: -40 ℃ ~ +70 ℃, неконденсирующийся, free of dust and water accumulation.

1. Предустановочная подготовка

1.1 Tool List

Flat-blade screwdriver (2.5 мм), динамометрическая отвертка, rail end stop (E/NS35 N, Номер заказа. 0800886), shielded twisted pair cable, мультиметр.

1.2 Cable Specifications

RS485 Bus: Dedicated shielded twisted pair (0.5~0.75 mm² recommended)

Terminal Tightening Torque: 0.5~0.6 N·m (5~7 lb-in)

1.3 Installation Environment Prohibitions

1. Do not mount directly under inverters, contactors or high-power transformers (blocked heat dissipation air duct + electromagnetic interference).
2. Reserve ≥25 mm ventilation gap above and below the module.
3. Keep away from 380 V power cables; separate trunking for power and signal cables.
4. Strictly comply with ATEX II 3G Ex ec IIC T4 Gc zoning regulations for hazardous area installations.
5. DIN Rail Mechanical Installation Procedures

2.1 Mount Module onto DIN Rail

1. Fix clean, rust-free standard TH35 DIN rail on cabinet backplate.
2. Hook the upper latches of the module onto the top edge of the rail.
3. Press the bottom of the module forward until a click sound indicates full locking.
4. Install rail end stops on both sides of the module to prevent sliding during operation.

2.2 Module Removal Steps

1. Pry down the bottom locking tab of the module with a flat-blade screwdriver.
2. Gently pull the lower part of the module outward.
3. Lift upward to disengage the upper latches from the rail for removal.

2.3 Mechanical Installation Notes

Do not strike or force plug/unplug the module to prevent damage to internal isolation circuits.

Install shock-absorbing mounting brackets for cabinet rails in high-vibration equipment (stamping, добыча полезных ископаемых).

Only horizontal transverse mounting is permitted; vertical upside-down installation is forbidden.

3.2 Standard Wiring Rules (2-wire Half-duplex Modbus / ПРОФИБУС)

1. Strictly match bus polarity one-to-one: A1 connects to device A of upstream equipment, B1 connects to device B of upstream equipment; A2 connects to substation A of downstream equipment, B2 connects to substation B of downstream equipment.
2. Shield layer of shielded twisted pair: Single-point grounding at both physical ends of the bus. Unify G1/G2 terminals of intermediate repeaters to FE terminal for central single-point grounding. Strictly prohibit double-ended grounding which forms ground loops.
3. Power wiring: L+ and Lcannot be reversed. Built-in reverse polarity protection exists, yet long-term reverse connection will shorten service life.
4. Do not short-circuit A/B terminals or mix power and bus terminals; short circuits will burn isolation circuits.

3.3 Mandatory Wiring Requirements for Hazardous Areas

1. Use explosion-proof shielded cables with cable glands complying with Ex ec standard.
2. Reliably connect FE earth bar to protective earth of explosion-proof cabinet; ground resistance ＜ 4 Ой.
3. No mid-bus tapping; termination resistors can only be installed at the two physical ends of the bus.
4. DIP Switch Configuration Operation

4.1 DIP Switch Location

Pry open the plastic side cover of the module; two groups of DIP switches are inside:

1. S1: Termination resistor for Segment A bus (220 Ой + 390 Ω voltage divider matched to 120 Ω bus)
2. S2: Termination resistor for Segment B bus

4.2 DIP Switch Application Rules

НА: Enable built-in termination resistor; ВЫКЛЮЧЕННЫЙ: Disable termination resistor.

Only set the DIP switch to ON for devices/repeaters at the physical extreme ends of the bus; set all intermediate nodes to OFF.

Типичные сценарии:

1. PLC at the start of Segment A bus, this repeater at Segment A end → S1=ON
2. Last instrument at the end of Segment B bus → S2=ON
3. Repeater only used as intermediate segment divider with other terminals at both ends of two bus segments → S1 and S2 both OFF

4.3 Transmission Rate Adaptation Note

This model features hardware auto-adaptation from 4.8 kbps to 1500 кбит/с; no baud rate DIP switch required. Hardware auto transmit/receive switching without RTS control signal.

5. Power-on Commissioning Steps
6. After wiring completion, measure voltage between L+/Lwith multimeter: 19.2~28.8 V (24 V ±20%), no short circuit.
7. Power on without load; steady green power indicator light means normal operation. If off, inspect power supply circuit.
8. Bus communication test:

Flashing DATA indicator during data transmission indicates normal signal forwarding.

No flashing: Check reversed A/B polarity, mismatched termination resistor setting or broken bus cable.

4. Communication packet loss troubleshooting: Inspect shield grounding, separation of power & signal cables and termination resistor configuration.
5. Electrical Isolation Safety Instructions (Core)

The module adopts three independent isolation channels: Power ↔ Bus A ↔ Bus B, with isolation withstand voltage of 2.5 кВ переменного тока.

1. Supports connection of two bus segments with different ground potentials to eliminate ground potential difference interference.
2. Isolates bus segments connected to inverters and high-power motors, preventing surge breakdown of PLC communication ports.
3. Provides physical isolation between hazardous area bus and control room bus to meet Ex safety clearance requirements.
4. Installation Acceptance Criteria
5. Механический: Module fixed without looseness, latches fully engaged, rail end stops installed properly.
6. Электропроводка: All terminals tightened to 0.5~0.6 N·m, no bare copper exposed, no insulation trapped under terminals.
7. Заземление: FE terminal reliably connected to cabinet protective earth, single-point shield grounding without ground loops.
8. DIP Switch: Termination resistors only enabled at bus two ends, all intermediate nodes disabled.
9. Power-on: Steady power indicator light, normal flashing of communication indicator during data transmit/receive.
10. Среда: Unobstructed ventilation above and below module, kept away from strong electromagnetic interference sources.
11. Installation Fault Troubleshooting Matrix

9. Согласие & Требования к техническому обслуживанию
10. Сертификаты: CE, UL, АТЕХ, DNV GL, РоХС; retain certification documents for hazardous area projects.
11. Periodic Maintenance (Каждый 6 Months):

Inspect terminal torque to prevent loosening caused by thermal expansion & contraction.

Clean dust on module surface to guarantee ventilation.

Re-test ground resistance and confirm intact shield grounding.

3. Modification Prohibitions: Do not remove isolation circuits, short isolation terminals or replace with non-original terminal accessories.
