Welcome to Filter Magic!>Components>AS-I Network


The AS-I Network (Actuator Sensor Interface).

The AS-Inerface design uses two unshielded 14 gauge wires cable to carry both power and data. Filter Magic ® implements its system using the ring topology which allows all components such as filter valves and instruments to reside on the two-wire "Loop." The "Loop" allows all components to continue to operate and communicate even if there's a failure at any part of the system.

Advantages of the AS-I Network. 

 
  • two-wire cable reduces convention wiring installation costs.
  • featuring (Fail-Safe) via redundant Ring Topology in case of a line break.
  • Inherent safety 24 Volt system power.
  • Reduces installation costs by 40%.
