Profibus PA

PROFIBUS (PROcess FIeld Bu S) PA (Process Automation) cables, like PROFIBUS FMS and PROFIBUS DP, are also specified in EN 61158 and EN 61784 (formerly EN 50170)and have been designed specifically for application in process automation.

They serve as connection between sensors and actuators (data and power supply of the devices), especially in potentially explosive, hazardous areas.

For longer transmissions routes, designs with increased conductor cross-sections are available. Apart from the standard versions all PROFIBUS PA cables are supplied with the appropriate UL approvals for the North American markets.
