Softing pnGate PA

Product Code: GCA-AL-024602

Softing pnGate PA Direct PROFIBUS PA Segment Integration into PROFINET Control Systems. Direct integration without detours Gateway as a bridge to a future-proof, state-of-the-art process landscape

PROFINET to PROFIBUS PA Master Gateway. With pnGate PA it is possible to integrate up to 4 PROFIBUS PA segments into PROFINET systems using virtual mapping. pnGate PA for Re-use of Existing Power Conditioners in Technology Upgrade Projects. No PROFIBUS DP Intermediate Segment required. Prepared for Integration in Standard Engineering and Plant Asset Management Tools. It provides S2 redundancy and enables configuration, parameterization and plant asset management using standard industry tools.

Direct PROFIBUS PA Segment Integration into Modbus TCP Control Systems

Softing pnGate PA Direct PROFIBUS PA Segment Integration into Modbus TCP Control Systems

Key Component for Transition to State-of-the-Art Technology

• Simple replacement of installed PROFIBUS DP/PA segment couplers
• Re-use of existing PROFIBUS PA segments without requiring modification
• Support of PROFINET redundancy for increased reliability

Softing pnGate PA Direct Connectivity to PROFIBUS Segments

• Acting as PROFINET Device and PROFIBUS PA Master
• Support of up to 4 PROFIBUS PA segments

Configuration, Parameterization and Plant Asset Management Using Standard Industry Tools

• Supports major PROFINET engineering tools such as TIA Portal, Step7 and PC WORXS
• Included CommDTM allowing use in FDT/DTM frame applications
• EDD-based device parametrization using Siemens Simatic PDM

What is more, the pnGate PA gateway is a key part of the transformation towards designing processes compatible with the idea of Industrie 4.0. Softing Industrial Automation can offer a range of other digitalization solutions that it has also developed in-house: a MODBUS to PROFIBUS PA gateway for TCP control systems, and a MODBUS TCP to FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 gateway, used to integrate FF devices into Modbus networks for process control and plant asset management.
