TURCK has introduced JRBS junction bricks for connection of multiple devices to the main fieldbus trunk.
JRBS junction bricks are available with 4, 6, 8, 10 or 12 ports and feature removable terminals for simple installation and wiring modification in tight spaces.
According to the company, the terminals are located on both sides of the brick to enable easy access for wiring from either direction, and they screw securely into place eliminating the risk of becoming disconnected in high vibration environments.
JRBS junction bricks can be DIN-mounted vertically or horizontally.
The bricks provide short circuit protection for all ports, as well as visual status with bright LED indicators located on each spur. This allows devices to be added and removed without disruption to the network.
An optional overmoulded, pluggable terminating resistor is also available for use with the three pole terminal blocks.
According to the manufacturer, the JRBS junction brick comes with several features that make it particularly simple to set-up and use including removable terminals for access to confined spaces, pluggable terminating resistors, cage-clamp terminals and screw terminals. The device is also said to deliver a complete Foundation fieldbus solution from field devices to control systems, offer simple vertical or horizontal DIN-rail mounting configuration and incorporate short circuit protection with LED indication on each spur.
