Phoenix Contact has added two new families to its ever-growing process infrastructure portfolio, the overall breadth of the oFFering providing solutions to almost any process automation challenge. A new line of preconfigured junction boxes makes it easy to connect and protect process instruments, and a redundant Fieldbus power supply can prevent downtime in critical applications.

In the field控制工程网版权所有, the stainless steel and aluminum enclosure assemblies include internal components for trunk connection, termination, surge protectionwww.cechina.cn, and flexible shielding for easy connection. The user can snap in the type and number of modular device couplersCONTROL ENGINEERING China版权所有, FB-2SP or FB-ISO, based on hazardous area and isolation requirementswww.cechina.cn, reducing installation costs by avoiding unused capacity and minimizing enclosure size. At the same time, a one-to-one coupler-to-instrument relationship increases operational integrity.

In the control cabinet, the redundant power supply features a per-segment modular base for connectivity and signal conditioning that improves overall process integrity while saving critical cabinet space and avoiding unused capacity cost.
