The FS221/N (Part Number: 00012201-10) is a FASTBUS slave substation module for the Bachmann M1 system, designed to extend the controller network over long distances. It enables remote substations with low-latency, real-time communication, keeping all I/O modules synchronized with the central master controller. The module integrates a 100W power supply, eliminating the need for separate NT series power units in the substation.
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Network Role | FASTBUS Slave (Substation Interface) |
| Integrated Power | 100 W for local backplane and I/O |
| Input Voltage | 24 VDC / 48 VDC (variant dependent) |
| Max Communication Distance | 2,000 m via multimode fiber optic |
| Interface Options | LC patch cable or Harting PushPull |
| Data Rate | 10 Mbit/s deterministic bus |
| Substation Capacity | Up to 15 distributed substations |
| Signal Latency | Minimal for high-speed control loops |
| Isolation | Full galvanic isolation via optical fiber |
| Operating Temperature | −30°C to +60°C |
Used for wind turbine base-to-nacelle communication, maritime automation, and distributed industrial control, where multiple remote I/O stations must operate reliably under a single CPU.
Can the FS221/N power a full 10-slot backplane?
Yes, as long as the total I/O consumption ≤100W. High-power setups should be verified in Bachmann SolutionCenter.
Why choose the Harting PushPull connector?
It provides a vibration-resistant, IP65/67-rated connection, ideal for harsh environments like nacelles or engine rooms.
Our production line was down due to a faulty Bently Nevada monitor. We found it in stock here and they shipped it via DHL immediately. Back in operation within 48 hours—truly a lifesaver for our plant.
