Eaton MTL Megablock fieldbus wiring hubs
Megablock wiring hubs for FOUNDATION™ fieldbus H1 and Profibus PA: F300 (Zone 2), F200-IS (FISCO), F200-XE (Ex e, Zone 1) and the F30 Ex ic adaptor.
- Spur short-circuit protection; add or remove devices without disrupting the segment
- F300: single-piece trunk connector, removable terminator, pluggable surge option
- F200-IS for FISCO networks; F200-XE in Ex e enclosures in Zone 1
- F30 Ex ic adaptor for live-workable Ex ic spurs in Zone 2
Overview
Megablocks are DIN-rail passive hubs that minimise hand wiring and let individual fieldbus devices be connected or removed without disturbing segment communications. The F300 is the latest generation, building on three generations with a large installed base.
F200-IS megablocks with 910x/912x FISCO supplies form fully IS segments. F200-XE is Ex e certified for Zone 1 enclosures, avoiding heavy Ex d boxes. The F30 Ex ic adaptor, used with 9180 supplies and 9192-FP modules, creates Ex ic spurs that can be live-worked in Zone 2.
Applications
- Field junction boxes for fieldbus
- FF H1 and Profibus PA networks in hazardous areas
