ASi EtherNet/IP™ + ModbusTCP Gateways – Ready for industry 4.0 and ideal for Rockwell PLCs

ASi EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP Gateways

ASi EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP Gateways – always equipped with OPC UA and REST API

Our ASi gateways with EtherNet/IP + Modbus TCP interface are available with and without integrated safety monitor. They are ideal for connecting AS-Interface (ASi) to a Rockwell PLC. With the state-of-the-art IT interfaces OPC UA and REST API, you can implement IIoT projects quickly and easily. As an edge device, a single gateway collects data from hundreds of sensors and actuators - and can make it available to cloud-based databases, for example.

 

All modern ASi-5/ASi-3 gateways can be securely updated in the field and can therefore meet future safety requirements long after commissioning. In addition, ASi already guarantees a high level of cyber security due to its structure. Find out more about IIoT and Industry 4.0 here.

For standard applications:

ASi EtherNet/IP + Modbus TCP Gateways without integrated Safety monitor

We recommend the "Bihl+Wiedemann's Choice" articles BWU3849 and BWU3851 for almost all standard applications. Here you also benefit from our new power supply generation.

 

Product selector

BWU3849

  • 1 ASi circuit, 1 ASi-5/ASi-3 Master

  • integrated decoupling

  • max. 4 A per ASi circuit

  • Diagnostics and configuration via EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP

  • OPC UA interface and integrated webserver for easy diagnostics and maintenance

  • ASi-5 – great data bandwidth, short cycle times

BWU3851

  • 2 ASi circuits, 2 ASi-5/ASi-3 Masters

  • integrated decoupling

  • max. 4 A per ASi circuit

  • Diagnostics and configuration via EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP or Ethernet diagnostic interface

  • OPC UA interface and integrated webserver for easy diagnostics and maintenance

  • ASi-5 – great data bandwidth, short cycle times

However, if you need more than 4A per ASi circuit, you can also use the ASi EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP Gateways BWU4019 (for 1 ASi circuit) and BWU4258 (for 2 ASi circuits).

 

BWU4019

  • 1 ASi circuit, 1 ASi-5/ASi-3 Master

  • max. 8 A per ASi circuit

  • Diagnostics and configuration via EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP or Ethernet diagnostic interface

  • OPC UA interface and integrated webserver for easy diagnostics and maintenance

  • ASi-5 – great data bandwidth, short cycle times

BWU4258

  • 2 ASi circuits, 2 ASi-5/ASi-3 Masters

  • max. 8 A per ASi circuit

  • Diagnostics and configuration via EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP or Ethernet diagnostic interface

  • OPC UA interface and integrated webserver for easy diagnostics and maintenance

  • ASi-5 – great data bandwidth, short cycle times

For Safety applications:

ASi EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP Gateways with integrated Safety monitor

We recommend the articles BWU3957 and BWU3958 for almost all Safety applications. Here you also benefit from our new power supply generation.

BWU3957

  • 1 ASi circuit, 1 ASi-5/ASi-3 Master

  • integrated decoupling

  • max.4 A per ASi circuit

  • Diagnostics and configuration via EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP or Ethernet diagnostic interface

  • Safety communication via Safe Link

  • OPC UA interface and integrated webserver for easy diagnostics and maintenance

  • ASi-5 – great data bandwidth, short cycle times

BWU3958

  • 2 ASi circuits, 2 ASi-5/ASi-3 Masters

  • integrated decoupling

  • max. 4 A per ASi circuit

  • Diagnostics and configuration via EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP or Ethernet diagnostic interface

  • Safety communication via Safe Link

  • OPC UA interface and integrated webserver for easy diagnostics and maintenance

  • ASi-5 – great data bandwidth, short cycle times

However, if you are dependent on CIP Safety communication – e.g. due to the use of safe Rockwell PLCs – you can alternatively use the ASi EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP gateway BWU3857 (for 2 ASi circuits). The gateway offers integrated CIP safety communication for easy integration of the safe signals into the safe Rockwell PLC.

BWU3857

  • 2 ASi circuits, 2 ASi-3 Masters
  • integrated decoupling
  • max. 4 A per ASi circuit
  • Diagnostics and configuration via EtherNet/IP + ModbusTCP or Ethernet diagnostic interface
  • Safety communication via Safe Link
  • CIP Safety über EtherNet/IP communication integrated
  • OPC UA interface and integrated webserver for easy diagnostics and maintenance
  • ASi-5 – great data bandwidth, short cycle times
