WL Circuit Breakers - Siemens

Integration into an Automation System
WL Circuit Breaker
A wide range of options are available
for integrating WL circuit breakers in
automation systems. New users will
appreciate the straightforward and quick
start-up options, while experienced
users will find that the flexible options
meet all their requirements.

PROFIBUS-DP

WL circuit breakers
Communication Options
The PROFIBUS COM15 module acts as
an interface between the circuit breakers
and the information environment. A joint
device master file (GSD) can be used for
integration in PROFIBUS-DP systems for all
WL circuit breakers. A distinction between
individual breakers and/or frame ratings
cannot and does not have to be drawn.
Of course, with an identical PROFIBUS-DP
profile, the circuit breaker that is addressed
can be accurately identified (e.g. device
description order number, inspection
date, etc.).

This diagram shows a chart of the different communication options. A class 1 master is the “configuration master,” which transmits either the settings from the
GSD file to the slave during start-up.
