Presentation (continued) 0<strong>AS</strong>-<strong>Interface</strong><strong>cabling</strong> <strong>system</strong> 0Setting-up (continued)Cable lengths (continued)Calculating cable lengthsThe total length of cable and wires connected to the <strong>AS</strong>-<strong>Interface</strong> + terminals and<strong>AS</strong>-<strong>Interface</strong> - terminals of the master must be carefully counted, both inside andoutside the enclosure, including the lengths of tap-offs in cases where <strong>AS</strong>-<strong>Interface</strong>components are not installed directly on the yellow cable using the IDC <strong>system</strong>.Lengths of tap-off cables must be counted twice. We therefore recommend usingshort tap-off runs and, wherever possible, using products installed directly on theyellow cable via IDC connectors (example: IP 67 interfaces, references<strong>AS</strong>I 67FFPppp).2 m2 m2 m0,3 mTotal length of ribbon cableTotal length of round wireTotal length of tap-offsLength of network=40m=Lc=2m=Lf=4.3m=Ld= Lc + Lf + 2 x Ld = 50.60 mCables between sensors/actuators and interface inputsSensors/actuators must be supplied with power directly at the <strong>AS</strong>-<strong>Interface</strong> interfaceterminals or connectors. The sensor supply must not be connected to any potential.Maximum lengths are:b Between safety sensors and safety interfaces: 3 m (2 m recommended).b Between standard sensors/actuators and interfaces: 10 m.12
