Should you install the decentralized drive electronics directly on the motor or separately in the field? Your application decides. Our Z.3 to Z.9 field distributors offer a modular platform that individually and optimally meets your requirements. You can realize requirements such as pluggable motor connections, integrated maintenance switches and varied fieldbus connections using different interlinked module terminal boxes.

Thanks to the modular design of the field distributor, you can quickly and individually mount fieldbus interfaces and the selected MOVIMOT^® power section. This does not just enable a standardized installation topology with flexible conditions, but also makes replacement simple during servicing.

Extensive, modular plants can be easily created with an integrated T distributor for energy and communication. MOVIMOT^® power sections are optionally mounted on the field distributor, and varied fieldbus interfaces flexibly support use with a number of commercially available controllers.

Integrated M12 connectors enable simple connection of the decentralized sensors and actuators (MOVISWITCH^® for example) to the higher-level controller. Standardized software applications do away with time-intensive functions. The PLC workload is reduced and reproducible behavior of time-critical functions (such as positioning operations with our EI7C incremental encoder) is ensured. Simple programming via IPOS also enables implementation of individual software functions.

Integrated diagnostics LEDs enable you to determine the module status without the need for software tools. Complete pluggability makes module replacement quick and easy during servicing. This results in shorter downtimes.
