In module subrack BGT, up to nine burner control units can be
inserted together with the PFA 700, while with the PFA 710,
the maximum is eight burner control units.
The BGT is provided with a backplane with screw terminals for
simple, reliable wiring.
The conventional wide-spread systems used in indus-
trial furnace and kiln construction require bridging of
large distances for signal processing.
PFA, BGT · Edition 03.11l
The field bus interface PFA is used in conjunction with
the pre-wired module subrack BGT for interworking of
burner control units PFU to industrial communication
networks using PROFIBUS DP to control and monitor
burners in industrial furnaces and firing systems, e.g. in
the iron and steel, glass and ceramics, or plastics and
chemical industries.
As a standardized fieldbus system, the PROFIBUS DP
considerably reduces development, installation and
commissioning costs compared to conventional wiring.
The use of a standard bus system offers massive ben-
efits compared to manufacturer-specific bespoke solu-
tions. Time-tested hardware components, standardized
connection methods and a series of tools of bus diag-
nostics and optimization are available on the market
from a whole range of manufacturers. The widespread
use of the system ensures that the planning and ser-
vice personnel are very familiar with how the system op-
erates and how to handle it and can therefore operate
the system efficiently.
