FBS-SUB-9-GS-DP-B

Product information

Product Overview

FBS-SUB is Festo’s Sub-D plug family for bus connection on valve terminals — the plug that brings CAN bus or PROFIBUS into the terminal. Festo lists cable connections that exit 2x horizontally or 2x vertically and a PCB terminal block with screw connector, and the variants include PROFIBUS DP and CANopen versions.

This page covers FBS-SUB-9-GS-DP-B — Festo type code FBS-SUB-9-GS-DP-B, order number 532216. Everything below is taken from Festo’s own product data for this order number: the technical values, the category path, the GTIN and the lifecycle notice are all reproduced from the manufacturer’s page rather than paraphrased, so you can check them against Festo’s documentation before you buy.

Why Buyers Specify This Model

• Sub-D plug for fieldbus connection of valve terminals, rather than wiring the bus directly
• Variants for PROFIBUS DP and CANopen, each with its own part number
• Cable outlet 2x horizontal or 2x vertical, so the cable can be routed to suit the cabinet
• PCB terminal block with screw connector for terminating the field wiring
• Degree of protection IP65/IP67 in the mounted state to IEC 60529
• Plug connector for CAN bus and PROFIBUS bus connection
• Cable connection 2x horizontal or 2x vertical

The order number and the type code both have to match. A single character in the type code can change the valve function, the cushioning or the connection, and it always changes the order number.

Lifecycle and Availability

Festo’s product page for this order number does not currently carry a discontinuation or successor notice, so we list it as a standard catalogue item. Availability is always confirmed against Festo’s stock at the time you order — we do not keep a stock figure on this page because it would be out of date the day it was written.

Official Documentation

Every figure on this page comes from Festo. Use the manufacturer’s own documents to verify it:

• Festo official product page — FBS-SUB-9-GS-DP-B — the source of the technical values and the lifecycle notice above.
• Festo official series catalogue (PDF) — Festo’s own catalogue for this series, including the type code breakdown and the ordering data for every variant.

Ordering This Part

Before we quote, please confirm:

• the complete Festo type code, exactly as it appears on the drawing or the nameplate — not just the series name;
• the order number if you have it, so we can cross-check the code against Festo’s catalogue;
• the quantity and the delivery address;
• for cylinders, the stroke and the mounting style, because both are fields in the order code;
• for valves and sensors, the electrical connection and the voltage, because these are fields in the order code.

Send us a photograph of the nameplate if the code is hard to read — that is usually the fastest way to avoid shipping the wrong variant.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does FBS-SUB-9-GS-DP-B mean?
FBS-SUB is the plug family, 9 is the Sub-D pin count and the trailing fields identify the bus system and the mechanical version. Festo publishes each variant with its own part number, so the bus type in your code must match the network you are running.

Is this plug for PROFIBUS or CANopen?
Both exist in the family with different codes. The two-letter field in the code identifies the bus — DP versions are for PROFIBUS DP and the CANopen versions carry their own code. Quote the code you have and we will confirm.

What is the degree of protection?
Festo states IP65/IP67 in the mounted state to IEC 60529 for this plug. That means the sealing is achieved once the plug is properly mated and the cable gland is tightened.

Do you supply the bus cable as well?
Yes — tell us the plug code and the cable route length and we will quote a matching bus cable.
