AS 488 S cabinet system

■Overview

The AS 488 S cabinet system is one of four design versions of the AS 488/TM automation system.

The AS 488 S is specially designed for migration or expansion of existing TELEPERM M systems, and therefore optimized for in- stallation in TELEPERM M cabinets with 19" packaging systems. The AS 488 S preassembled on an MIG I or MIG II migration rack is mounted on the front cabinet members of a TELEPERM M cabinet. The TELEPERM M installation guidelines are applicable with respect to the CE marking wherever TELEPERM M

I/O modules are operated in an AS 488 S. On the other hand, the SIMATIC S7/M7 guidelines apply to an AS 488 S exclusively operating with distributed I/Os on the PROFIBUS-DP.

In contrast to a system order in the form of individual compo- nents (the orderer is responsible for logistics and assembly), a completely equipped and pretested AS 488 S is ordered using a single Order No. specified by the selection of defined standards. The standards differ depending on whether TELEPERM M I/O modules are used (cabinet packaging system according to TELEPERM M guidelines) or not (cabinet packag- ing system according to SIMATIC guidelines), and vary with re- spect to the type of CPU (120 MHz or 75 MHz), the power supply (DC 24 V or AC 230 V) and the migration rack (MIG I or MIG II). In addition, supplementary components and parts – including any TELEPERM M cabinets required – can be ordered as indi- vidual options as previously.

Please order any TELEPERM M cabinets required using Catalog PLT 111. You can download this catalog from the Internet.
