Hello GanzGenau; Profisafe is a profile used to integrate Safety signals over Profibus-DP. If you are transmitting Profibus-DP signals over a bus (whatever the transmission hardware) your Profisafe signals will accompany them. See this description of the Power Rail Booster from Siemens Automation Technology: SIMATIC Power Rail Booster - I/O Systems - Siemens- Connection of a PROFIBUS DP through a contact wireThe power rail booster supports connection of a PROFIBUS DP through a contact wire, such as can be implemented on monorail conveyors or high-bay storage and retrieval systems, thus ensuring continued use of the wide range of PROFIBUS DP system services, such as diagnostics and PROFIsafe safety engineering through a bus.- Area of application: By transferring the PROFIBUS DP signal via collector wires using signal boosting, new, low-cost concepts based on standard components can be implemented for electric monorail systems or stacker crane systems. Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier |
