- Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): Meets industrial immunity/emission requirements, essential in PROFIBUS fieldbus environments.
- Diagnostics: Built-in monitoring of PROFIBUS bus health, slave status, communication errors, and Ethernet connectivity, with alarms via IONet.
Technical Architecture & Functional Positioning
The IS220PPRFH1A functions as a protocol gateway pack at the network edge in Mark VIe systems, bridging legacy PROFIBUS DP fieldbus devices to the modern Ethernet-based IONet control network. It mounts to an accessory board (typically IS200SPIDG1A), acts as a Class 1 PROFIBUS DPV0 master to cyclically poll slave devices, and maps their process data (inputs/outputs) directly into the Mark VIe controller’s I/O database over redundant Ethernet. This gateway architecture preserves existing PROFIBUS investments while enabling full integration with Mark VIe diagnostics, voting, and application logic.
Core technologies include a dedicated PROFIBUS master controller for reliable DPV0 cyclic communication, Ethernet dual-port redundancy for TMR fault tolerance, and signal conditioning to handle RS-485 fieldbus noise. The pack supports standard PROFIBUS slave integration without requiring custom application code in the controller, as data mapping occurs transparently.
These design elements solve common migration challenges: seamless incorporation of PROFIBUS field devices (e.g., drives, transmitters, valves) into Ethernet-native Mark VIe systems, reduction of cabling complexity compared to hardwired solutions, and provision of gateway-level diagnostics for bus faults or slave failures. In TMR configurations, the pack contributes to high-availability fieldbus communication, while continuous bus monitoring enables predictive intervention before production impacts occur.
Typical Application Scenarios
- Deployed in gas and steam turbine retrofits to integrate existing PROFIBUS-connected drives, analyzers, or actuators into Mark VIe control without full field rewiring.
- Used in combined-cycle plants for bridging PROFIBUS slave devices in auxiliary systems (e.g., boiler controls, water treatment) to the main turbine controller.
- Serves as a compatible gateway in Mark VIe upgrades, maintaining PROFIBUS fieldbus while leveraging IONet for diagnostics and redundancy.
- Supports industrial processes with PROFIBUS instrumentation (e.g., petrochemical, refining), mapping slave I/O for centralized monitoring and control.
- Utilized in hazardous-area setups where PROFIBUS field devices are prevalent, leveraging Div 2 rating for safe gateway deployment.
