2.1 Overview
Pepperl+Fuchs VisuNet Computing Units TCU1100-*/TCU1200-* and PCU1100-*/PCU1200-*
are ATEX/IECEx certified, UL listed devices intended for use in potentially explosive
atmospheres, such as Zones 1/21 and 2/22 and Class I/II, Div. 2 and Class III.
Connected to Pepperl+Fuchs display units, the TCU and PCU devices serve as thin-client- or
PC-based computing units. The TCU devices run VisuNet RM Shell firmware and allow users
to easily connect to a host system via Ethernet. The PCU devices run a pre-installed
Windows®operating system and allow users to install individual software packages such as
SCADA applications to visualize and control their automation application.
Two USB Ex i interfaces support the connection of intrinsically safe accessories that match with
the provided entity parameters, such as Pepperl+Fuchs' EXTA2 keyboard and mouse system.
The USB Ex-e interface can be used to connect other third-party devices that comply with the
installation requirements.
For extended distances, the computing units are available with an optional multi-mode fiber-
optic interface.
VisuNet computing units are optimized for use with the modular Pepperl+Fuchs HMI
components Display Unit (DPU1100-*/DPU1200-*) and Power Supply unit (PSU1100-
*/PSU1200-*) of the VisuNet GXP product line.

Product Description
Cable Gland Connection Layout
The cable glands have different inlays in different sizes. Therefore, it is important to use the
correct installation cables with the corresponding cable gland. Do not use the cable glands for
any other cable than stated below. Do not interchange the cables.
Figure 2.1 Cable gland connection layout
Danger!
Accumulation of condensed water within the housing can cause a short and result in an
ignition.
A blocked breather vent cannot provide ventilation or drainage.
Do not block or restrict the breather vent! Do not insert any sharp objects into the breather vent!

Installation
3Installation
3.1 General Installation Requirements
■The equipment must be installed by competent personnel in accordance with the
instructions. National laws and regulations must be observed.
■The building installation must provide a 20 A overcurrent protection.
■The installer must make a readily accessible disconnect device available.
■The safety of any system incorporating the power suppply unit is the responsibility of the
assembler of the system.
3.2 Special Conditions of Use
■Input power must be provided by a power supply that meets the requirements for safety
extra-low protective voltage (SELV) or protective extra-low voltage (PELV).
■TCU/PCU must be mated with a suitably certified module, such as a DPU.
■Connection of TCU/PCU and display shall only be made when de-energized.
3.3 Terminal Compartments
There are 3 terminal compartments on the back of the PCU/TCU:
■Terminal Compartment Ex e contains the Ex e power supply interface, an Ex e USB
interface, an Ex e Ethernet interface, and an optional 1000-BASE-SX fiber-optic interface.
■Terminal Compartment Ex i contains a terminal block for 2 Ex i USB connectors.
■The third terminal compartment contains additional optional interfaces for user modules
(TTY
, Ethernet, RS-232, or RS-485, and scanner options).
Figure 3.1 Terminal compartments
Danger!
Danger of Explosion
Disconnecting cables too quickly may trigger an ignition, as device-internal cable capacitances
need some time to discharge.
After de-energizing, wait 3 minutes before opening the compartment room or disconnecting the
device from the display unit.
