Easily connect safety and fieldbus protocols

A simple alternative to bus couplers or PN/PN couplers

Would you like to connect two different controls and utilize all the signals in the other network? Then you need the “safe coupling” (BW5153) or the “fieldbus coupling” (BW5076) from Bihl+Wiedemann. Both functionalities can be easily put into operation with our software: Simply select the relevant gateways and enable activation – everything else runs in the background.

More flexible than traditional bus couplers or PROFINET couplers

Unlike conventional couplers, the functionalities of “safe coupling” (BW5153) and “fieldbus coupling” (BW5076) allow almost any controller to be connected to another. You can also easily combine both coupling functionalities (safe and standard) in our software. This ensures even greater flexibility.

"Safe coupling": Easily connect safety protocols

  • Many different safe fieldbuses can be coupled

  • Easy commissioning and setups thanks to Bihl+Wiedemann Software Suite

  • Up to 16 bytes of safe data can be transferred (dependent on the specific gateway)

"Fieldbus coupling": Easily connect standard protocols

  • Many different fieldbus protocols or ASi-5 Gateways can be coupled

  • Fieldbus data from both controls and ASi networks can be used in each other’s network as well

  • Easy commissioning and setups thanks to Bihl+Wiedemann Software Suite

  • “Fieldbus coupling” (BW5076) and “safe coupling” (BW5153) can be used in combination
