Planning the cabling

If one or more boundary conditions are violated, a “typical” segment with shorter
cable paths and / or less nodes is calculated. The calculation results are valid for
most of the segments. Only some “exceptional segments” with very long cable
paths or a high number of nodes are left. It is recommended to calculate these sep-
arately.

3.2.3.2 Example calculation – PROFIBUS PA (MBP) segment

In the following example, a tank storage facility is considered and the segment de-
sign is calculated.

Control room
Tank 1
DP/PA converter

~20 m Tank 2
~80 m

~600 m ~60 m
~100 m
~70 m

~30 m
Tank 3

Planning the cabling
The following information has been derived from the above-shown layout plan:

Parameter Value

Ambient temperature 20 °C

Trunk length Larger than or equal to 600 m

Topology Tree

Cable type A

Cable loop resistance 44 /km


Current consumption per field 20 mA
device
Redundant PROFIBUS DP/PA No
converter
Max. spur length 100 m

No. of field devices per segment 10

Non-redundant power supply unit 24 V / 360 mA

Table 3-5 Information derive from layout plan

It must be proved that the field devices are powered correctly and in accordance
with the fieldbus standard.

3.2.3.3 Result of the calculation example

It must be checked if the physical variables fulfill the requirements of the fieldbus
standard IEC 61158-2. This will ensure in advance that the segment will work cor-
rectly.

Number of nodes = number of field devices + number of masters

Nnodes =6+1

Nnodes = 7 ≤ 32

Segment length = bus length + total of all spur lengths

Lsegment = 600 m + 20 m + 80 m + 60 m + 100 m + 70 m + 30 m

Lsegment = 960 m ≤ 1900 m

Planning the cabling
Spur length = max. 120 m for 7 nodes according to table

Lspur = 100 m ≤ 120 m

Current consumption of segment = total current of field devices

Isegment = 6  20 mA

Isegment = 120 mA < Isupply current (240 mA)

Voltage on fieldbus coupler = voltage on source - voltage drop along trunk

Ufieldbus coupler = 24 V – (120 mA  44 ohms / km  0.6 km)

Ufieldbus coupler = 20.83 V > 9 V ± 10 %

Voltage on field device = voltage on fieldbus coupler – voltage drop on spur

Ufield device = 20.83 V – (20 mA  44 ohms / km  0.1 km)

Ufield device = 20.3 V > 9 V ± 10 %

3.2.3.4 Result

The segment has a sufficient reserve regarding the total cable length and the elec-
trical load.

The example above is intended to show that these calculations


are easy and just use Ohm’s law and Kirchhoff’s laws. Various
free design tools are available for practical application.
