URP-SHIELD – Unitronics Shield Module,ID Typ
MPN: URP-SHIELD
Alt. SKU: URPSHIELD
Why Choose the Unitronics URP-SHIELD UniStream Shield Connection Module?
The Unitronics URP-SHIELD is a shield grounding module designed for use with Unitronics UniStream Remote I/O systems. It provides a dedicated connection point for cable shields, helping reduce electrical noise and improve signal integrity in industrial automation installations.
In automation systems where communication and signal cables run through electrically noisy environments, proper shield termination is essential. The URP-SHIELD enables structured grounding of cable shielding directly within the remote I/O assembly, improving reliability for fieldbus communication, sensor signals and I/O connections.
The module installs alongside UniStream remote I/O components on a DIN rail, providing a clean and organised method for terminating cable shields inside industrial control panels and automation cabinets.
