Burkert: Type ME43 – Fieldbus Gateway
October 12, 2022
The fieldbus gateway Type ME43 is the central control unit for Bürkert products (valves, sensors, mass flow controllers or displays), which are based on EDIP (“Efficient Device Integration Platform”). The basic version of Type ME43 consists of a fieldbus coupler which transmits the internal CANopen-based communication of the Bürkert field devices to industry standards for industrial Ethernet and fieldbus. With the help of graphical programming, which the module supports, sub-systems can be automated specifically to the customer’s needs (e.g. controlled mixing of gases, error monitoring through limit value switches, time switches).
- – Gateway for industrial Ethernet and fieldbus standards
- – Up to 128 input and 128 output variables can be assigned
- – Easy integration in the process control level through system-specific device description files
- – Graphical programming for automation of sub-systems
