High-Capacity Device Networking
This gateway supports communication with up to 127 Profibus DP slave devices on a single network. You can connect a vast array of field devices including drives, barcode scanners, and remote I/O blocks. Therefore, the Honeywell 8U-TPOXA1 provides a central communication hub for complex automation cells.
Integrated Power Supply for Convenience
The 8U-TPOXA1 includes a built-in power supply that accepts a wide range of 100-240 VAC inputs. It provides a regulated 24 VDC output with a tight ±2% tolerance to power the gateway and possibly field devices. This integrated design simplifies installation by reducing the need for separate power components.
Wide Temperature Tolerance for Harsh Environments
Honeywell designed this module to operate reliably in temperatures ranging from -20°C to +60°C. It also withstands extreme storage conditions from -40°C to +85°C, ensuring durability during transport. Furthermore, it functions in up to 95% non-condensing humidity, making it suitable for washdown areas or humid climates.
Seamless Integration with Series 8 Systems
You can easily mount the Honeywell 8U-TPOXA1 within a Series 8 I/O rack, aligning with the system’s modular architecture. It communicates directly with the Series 8 controller, presenting Profibus devices as native I/O points. As a result, engineers can program and monitor these devices without specialized Profibus knowledge.
Compact and Robust Mechanical Design
The module measures just 125 mm by 100 mm by 75 mm, occupying minimal space within your control cabinet. Its metal enclosure provides excellent electromagnetic shielding and heat dissipation. Weighing only 0.7 kg, it remains lightweight yet sturdy enough for panel mounting in vibrating environments.
