Optical Fieldbus System System Composition Devices
DATA SHEET
Fieldbus is used for digital transmission of the next generation, which takes over the conventional 4 to 20mA analog current
transmission. The optical fieldbus using optical fiber as a fieldbus signal transmission line, has features of optical transmission
such as noise-resistance and thunder-resistance, in additions to the features of fieldbus.
The optical fieldbus system is composed of field devices, such as a pressure transmitter, a differential pressure transmitter,
temperature transmitter, and optical star coupler for blanching optical signals, and a host control system.

FEATURES
Common specifications for system
1. Noise-resistance, thunder-resistance
Optical signals are free from effects of external noise and
inductive thunder, providing highly reliable transmission.
The use of non-metallic cables eliminates the propagation
of inductive thunder, ensuring excellent thunder-proof
transmission.
2. Reliability with redundancy
Duplex host devices are available by using 2 optical cables
(between star coupler and control room) to improve the
system reliability.
3. Intrinsic safety explosion-proof
Built-in power (battery) devices can be designed for intrin-
sic safety explosion-proof (intrinsic safety barrier is not re-
quired).
Restriction of current flowing into the signal bus need not
be taken into account, so any number of devices can be
connected to one bus.
