Ertsoverslagbedrijf Europoort C.V. installed the Ethernet-Profibus-Interface, PB-XEPI, from Turck for constant monitoring of the fieldbus communication
At the harbor of Rotterdam, numerous field devices in robust load cranes, conveyer belts and loading installations communicate with the controls via Profibus protocol. As soon as failures of the fieldbus communication are signaled, the maintenance staff can identify and fix the problem centrally with the help of a webbrowser – thanks to the support of the Ethernet-Profibus-Interface PB-XEPI from Turck.
