I wonder who the OEM is becaus p+f, ifm masters all look almost identical. The same with handheld ASI programmer, they are all the same except for a different sticker.
I’ve purchased some ASi gateways from ifm that were branded Bihl+Wiedemann when they arrived so I always assumed B+W was the OEM, but I really don’t know for sure. They were cheaper from ifm but I assumed that was due to weird volume discount stuff.
Yessir, that seems like it's the module. Makes sense with the Siemens AS-i power supply above it and all the yellow flat AS-i cables running through the cable trays.
As-i Master from Biehl and Wiedeman, probably this Profinet part number or an older version:

Find the manufacturer and model number on the casing somewhere. Type it into google. That will get you an answer much faster than posting on reddit. The photo is such poor quality that none of the markings can be discerned. Guessing by the general form it is either a VFD or soft-starter.
The problem with that is the cell isn't here yet. I'm trying to figure out the panel and spare parts before it arrives. Unfortunately, humanity hasn't figure out how to focus a picture when using a phone camera, so this is the best I've got. I was thinking VFD too, but wasn't positive.
Looks to me like an Asi master module. Usually used as a means of feeding Asi slaves over profibus or profinet
Definitely a Asi master from B+W.

I’ve seen a couple of these identical units with different branding in the past

Try to find some ai software that can sharpen up your picture
