ProfiDAT®compact offers the same benefits as our ProfiDAT® system, but being considerable smaller and more flexible. Designed for indoor applications ProfiDAT®compact is suitable for curved tracks as well as applications with switch points. Beside the double function of safe data transmission and protective earth conductor (PE), known from ProfiDAT®, an optical positioning system can be integrated to the slotted waveguide with the help of a positioning strip, offering even further savings of installation space as well as time.Main ApplicationsAutomated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS)ShuttlesTransfer Cars (RGV)SorterElectrified Monorail Systems (EMS)Skillet SystemsKey FeaturesData transmission at highest safety and reliabilityLowest interference potential with other wireless systems through slotted waveguide technologyReal-time data transmission through PROFINET/ PROFIsafe prioritizationWorldwide radio country approvalsSmart and fully integrated solution through unique 3 in 1 functionalityData transmissionProtective Earth conductor rail (PE rail)Positioning stripConsiderable installation space savings: most compact slotted waveguide availableConsiderable reduction of the installation timeSimple integration through use of well-known Siemens WIFI transceiver (Scalance W series)Compatible to lifters, transitions, curves, etc.Standard Application DataData rate [Mbit/s]:up to 100WIFI Standard: IEEE802.11 – 5 GHzData Interface: Ethernet (RJ45)Compatible control Protocols: PROFINET/ PROFIsafe, Ethernet IPData Transmission: Control Signals + Video/ AudioSystem lengths: no Limitation (through rapid roaming)Segment lengths [m]: up to 120Number of Consumers per Segment: up to 20Cycle time [ms]: beginning from 32Current for PE function [A]: up to 32 per collectorPositioning: Optical bar code or data matrix code
