B&R X20cBB82 System modules for expandable bus controllers
The coating on the electronics module protects the components and circuit board from the effects of condensation and corrosive gases.
The effectiveness of protection against condensation is checked using the test specified in BMW GS 95011-4. and protection against corrosive gases using the 4-part corrosive gas tests specified in EN 60068-2-60. test method 4. The tests are completed both in the company testing lab,
which is accredited in accordance with EN ISO/IEC 17025:2007. and at certified external testing facilities.
There, the products undergo further testing to check their durability – even beyond standard requirements.
POWERLINK is a standard protocol for Fast Ethernet equipped with hard real-time
characteristics. Systems with redundant cabling can be implemented easily using
POWERLINK. Unlike ring redundancy, cable redundancy does not require cable
looping, which can sometimes be problematic. This allows the creation of all types
of tree structures. When using a device with the link selector function, data is always
transferred via the highest quality network lines. The link selector function is integrated
in the bus controller.

These modules are even suitable for use in adverse atmospheric conditions.
