BACHMANN FS221/N FASTBUS Module

Description

The BACHMANN FS221/N FASTBUS Module is a FASTBUS slave module designed for industrial automation systems, focusing on reliable communication and power management. It supports long-distance substation distribution, enabling low-latency signal transmission and power supply for connected I/O modules. Key features include integrated power capabilities to power substation I/O modules, support for up to 15 distributed substations, and minimal signal delay for real-time performance. The module offers flexible connectivity options, including robust Harting PushPull connectors or LC patch cord technology, and can transmit signals up to 2000 meters over multi-mode fiber optic cables via 1 or 2 FO interfaces. It is also available as a ColdClimate model for operation in low-temperature environments, and supports pulse counting and incremental encoder input for expanded industrial functionality. Technical specifications include dimensions of 5.5 cm x 8 cm x 11.8 cm and a weight of 0.35 kg, making it compact and suitable for space-constrained industrial setups.
