May 21, 2007 - Minneapolis, Minn. - TURCK has expanded its line of BL20 gateways for use with EtherNet/IP and Modbus TCP network protocols. This augments the current line of BL20 gateways for DeviceNet, PROFIBUS-DP and CANopen.
The new line of BL20 Ethernet gateways may be controlled by a PLC or set up as a completely separate system, all while using a centralized server to monitor operations without ever having to change the existing control system.
TURCK’s BL20 systems consist of a gateway, base modules and electronic modules. I/O modules are configured independent of the fieldbus protocol, and up to 74 I/O modules may be connected to a system. All BL20 systems include free I/Oassistant software to configure engineering, parameter set-up, documentation, commissioning and diagnostic functions.
TURCK is an industry leader providing superior quality sensing, connectivity and network products to help manufacturers improve their automated processes.
