■ Design
Process or field communication
AS-Interface is used wherever individual actuators and sensors
are distributed throughout the machine (e.g. in a bottling plant or
production line, etc.).
AS-Interface replaces complex cable trees and connects binary
and analog actuators and sensors such as proximity switches,
valves or LEDs to a programmable controller such as SIMATIC
or a PC.
In practice, this means: Installation runs smoothly because data
and power are transported together on one cable. No special
expertise is required for installation and start-up. Furthermore,
through simple cable laying and the clear cable structure as well
as the special design of the cable, you not only significantly
reduce the risk of errors but also the service and maintenance
costs.
