Product Information

Segment Protector for Cabinet Installation R-SP-E12

The Segment Protector for Cabinet Installation R-SP-E12 is a device designed to protect fieldbus segments in hazardous areas. It is suitable for use with FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 and PROFIBUS PA, and provides 12 increased safety outputs with short circuit current limitation per output. The device is also equipped with surge protection for trunk and spurs, LED indicators, and selectable 100 integrated terminating resistor. It is designed for cabinet installation and is suitable for use in Zone 1/Div. 2 environments.

Product Usage

To use the Segment Protector for Cabinet Installation R-SP-E12, follow these instructions:

  1. Mount the device on a DIN rail in the cabinet.
  2. Connect the fieldbus trunk to the Trunk IN+ and Trunk IN- terminals on the device.
  3. Connect up to 12 fieldbus spurs to the Spur 1 – Spur 12 terminals on the device.
  4. Select and activate the terminating resistor based on your application requirements.
  5. Check the LED indicators to verify that the device is operating normally.

Note: Refer to General Notes Relating to Pepperl+Fuchs Product Information for additional information and safety instructions.

Segment Protector for Cabinet Installation

R-SP-E12

  • 12 increased safety outputs (Ex e)
  • Short circuit current limitation per output
  • Segment Protector in Zone 1/Div. 2
  • Instruments in Zone 1/Div. 1
  • For FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 and PROFIBUS PA
  • High power on trunk and spurs

Function

  • The R SP E12 Segment Protector is a device coupler that connects field instruments to the segment.
  • Flameproof (Ex d) field devices are connected to the trunk line via one output each. Trunk and spurs are certified increased safety (Ex e).
  • Short-circuit protection ensures proper operation of the segment in case of unwanted faults at the spur. Work on devices always requires a hot work permit. The integrated fieldbus terminator features high-availability design and is selectable.
  • Connectors are fixed screw terminals. Any grounding and shielding concept is possible based on FieldConnex enclosure solutions.
  • Customizable housings host one or more Segment Protectors for different output counts.
