February 5, 2009 - TURCK introduces its 4-wire PROFINET cordset line, developed to provide plug-and-play connectivity for applications using PROFINET protocols. PROFINET, the fastest industrial Ethernet I/O network, is compatible with existing fieldbus systems and the only network that can accomplish a line topology - especially ideal for long conveyor systems. These cordsets connect to TURCK’s BL67 Ethernet gateways for PROFINET - which can be connected to up to 32 I/O modules per gateway - to allow smooth integration into current fieldbus structures. The PROFINET cordset line offers both M12 Ethernet D-coded and RJ45 connector options, allowing users the option to mix-and-match any connector combination to meet unique application needs.
Cordsets are also available with color-coded field wireables to convert hard wiring to quick disconnect. TURCK’s PROFINET cordset includes cable that meets IEC 11801:2002 Cat 5 and TIA 568B: 2001 Cat 5e requirements. Like most TURCK cordsets, the PROFINET line offers standard and custom lengths, as well as pigtail or extension cordset options. TURCK is an industry leader providing superior quality sensing, connectivity and network products to help manufacturers improve their automated processes.
