Modbus TCP/FF HSE to FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1 Gateway

Integration of up to 4 FF H1 segments into control systems via Modbus TCP or FOUNDATION Fieldbus HSE

With Softing’s FG-200, it is possible to integrate up to four FOUNDATION™ Fieldbus (FF) H1 links into control systems supporting Modbus. The FG-200 provides redundancy and is suitable for use in hazardous areas. This device features fast access to process data, while making use of FF advantages like reduced cabling, central field device parameterization, comprehensive diagnostics, or intrinsically safe device segments. It is compatible with the R. STAHL bus-Carrier Series 9419 and Fieldbus Power Supply Series 9412 products for easy commissioning.
