Fibre optics connect the Lightbus modules in an industrial environment. Four different types of fibre optic are available for this connection. The Lightbus system uses plastic fibre optics made with PMMA and HCS fibres.PMMA plastic fibres permit distances of 45 metres between one module and the next, whereas 300 metre segments can be achieved with HCS fibres.
Plugs, sockets and other couplings provide solutions for laying fibre optics between control cabinets, terminal boxes and machine parts, and satisfy a variety of protection classes. Fibre optics and plugs can be quickly and easily connected.
Features
- temperature range: -20 to +70 °C
- bend radius 30 mm
- may be used in trailing cable installations
- transmission lengths 0.3 to 45 metres (PMMA fibre), or up to 300 metres (HCS fibre)
- industrial strength PU sheath
Application solutions
- connectors to various protection classes
- couplings for connecting fibre optics
- one-way and two-way lead-throughs for rotating axes on moving machinery or plant
- contactless data transmission via the Lightbus system using laser light up to 1 km away from mobile machines or plant
