New PN222 Fieldbus Coupler: Easily and reliably integrate sensors into PROFINET

PN222 PROFINET Fieldbus Coupler

With the new PN222, motrona is introducing a smart PROFINET fieldbus coupler that simplifies and streamlines the connection between the sensor level and the fieldbus level.

Whether for new machine designs or the expansion of existing systems, the PN222 integrates a wide variety of analog and digital sensor signals in a structured manner into a PROFINET network and makes the acquired process data available to the higher-level controller. This creates a clear and reliable interface between the signal level and the controller.

Flexible in use, easy to integrate

The PN222 is designed for modern automation and control applications and offers versatile signal integration even in the base unit:

  • 4 15-bit analog inputs for ±10 V or 0/4 … 20 mA
  • 12 digital HTL/PNP inputs
  • 8 digital PNP outputs
  • PROFINET IO Device Conformance Class B
  • Dual-port Ethernet with integrated switch
  • Parameterization via engineering tools and PLCs from various manufacturers

Particularly convenient: The PN222 scales with your requirements

The base unit can be expanded by up to three modules using the EM222 expansion modules. This allows additional signals to be integrated without having to fundamentally change the existing system architecture.

From Sensors to Visualization: A Seamless Solution

The PN222 fieldbus coupler establishes a seamless connection from the sensors to the controller, making it particularly suitable for machine builders and system integrators who want to expand existing structures or efficiently build new automation solutions.

Once the process data is available on the PROFINET network, it can not only be processed in the controller but also visualized decentrally via motrona fieldbus displays, for example. This allows signal acquisition, communication, processing, and visualization to be combined into a seamless solution.

At a Glance:

PROFINET Communication: Direct integration of sensor signals into higher-level control systems.

Flexible Signal Integration: Analog and digital inputs and outputs for various sensor and actuator signals.

Easily Expandable: Up to three plug-in expansion modules allow for customization based on specific needs.

Space-saving integration: Compact design and dual-port Ethernet with an integrated switch for easy integration into existing networks.

Cross-vendor configurability: Configuration possible via engineering tools and PLCs from various manufacturers.

Ready for the next phase of your automation?

With the PN222 smart fieldbus coupler, motrona offers a flexible interface for the reliable integration of sensor signals into PROFINET-based systems—straightforward, expandable, and designed to meet the requirements of modern industrial communication.
