Operating at the physical layer of the control network, this module is an essential component for integrating intelligent field devices into the CENTUM VP or CENTUM CS 3000 systems. It is engineered for mounting on various control units and node units, including the AFV30, AFV40, and the ANB\/ANT series. By utilizing this module, industrial facilities can achieve digital transformation at the sensor level, ensuring precise diagnostic data and process variables are transmitted reliably to the supervisory control level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHardware Specifications and Physical Data\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"firstRow\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInterface Standard\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2-wire FOUNDATION Fieldbus H1\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eData Signaling Rate\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e31.25 Kbps\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInput Voltage\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e24 VDC (+\/- 10%)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTypical Power Draw\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1.5 W\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIsolation Voltage\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1500 V AC for 60 seconds (Field to System)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRemovable pressure clamp terminals\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBuilt-in Termination\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIntegrated software-selectable terminators\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEnvironmental Tolerance\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e-40 to 70 degrees Celsius\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePhysical Dimensions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e127 x 25 x 127 mm (5.0 x 1.0 x 5.0 in)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUnit Weight\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.3 kg (0.66 lbs)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIndustrial Utility and Deployment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-paddingleft-2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNetwork Management\u003c\/strong\u003e: Functions as a Link Active Scheduler (LAS) to control the timing and traffic of the fieldbus segment, preventing data collisions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTime Synchronization\u003c\/strong\u003e: Acts as a Clock Master to ensure all connected field devices operate on a unified time stamp for accurate sequence-of-events recording.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMission-Critical Reliability\u003c\/strong\u003e: Supports dual-redundant configurations where two ALF111 modules work in tandem to prevent system downtime in the event of a hardware fault.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScalable Architecture\u003c\/strong\u003e: Capable of supporting up to 32 field devices per segment and 48 total I\/O points, making it suitable for complex processing units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVersatile Mounting\u003c\/strong\u003e: Compatible with ESB and ER bus node units, allowing for flexible distribution of I\/O throughout a plant's physical footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does the ALF111-S00 support redundant configurations for high-availability systems?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Yes, the module is designed for dual-redundancy.
