Key Technical Specifications

Key Features and Benefits

Reliable Communication for Extended Networks

The AIP171 S2 plays a key role in managing the V net control network, ensuring that communication between Field Control Stations (FCS) and Human Interface Stations (HIS) is both seamless and real-time, even across long distances. Its role as a repeater control unit allows the system to expand its network reach for large-scale, geographically dispersed plants.

Robust and Industrial-Grade Design

Built to withstand harsh industrial environments, the AIP171 S2 operates effectively within a wide temperature range of 0 to 50°C, making it ideal for demanding process control applications. Its durable design aligns with the high availability needs of modern industrial plants.

RS485 Communication Interface

The RS485 interface provides reliable, noise-immune signaling over long distances, which is critical for maintaining system performance in environments prone to electrical interference. This ensures data integrity and minimizes downtime, contributing to system efficiency.

Compact and Lightweight

With a weight of just 0.2 kg (0.44 lbs) and compact dimensions (2.5 cm × 12.7 cm × 17.8 cm), the AIP171 S2 is easy to integrate into existing systems, conserving valuable control cabinet space while simplifying installation and maintenance.
