Product Details
Description
The TU846 3BSE022460R1 provides a reliable mounting platform for two Communication Interface modules, enabling a fully redundant ModuleBus setup. It acts as a passive hub, distributing power and internal bus signals, with two independent 24V DC power feeds for the modules. With no active components, the TU846 offers high reliability and long service life. It features mechanical keying to prevent incorrect module insertion and integrated terminals for easy DIN rail installation, making it ideal for fault-tolerant I/O communication in distributed control systems.
