  • Weight: 180 g

Material Composition:

  • HousingPolyamide PA66 GF30, black
  • Terminal Blocks: Screw terminals, tin-plated copper alloy
  • Isolation BarriersOptocouplers (Siemens 6N137 or equivalent)

Structural Features:

  • Compact DIN rail module
  • LED indicators per channel (Power, Signal, Fault)
  • Shielded analog input section
  • DIN rail clip for secure mounting

Working Principle:
Analog signals pass through a precision resistor network and are buffered by an isolation amplifier (AMC1200 or equivalent). Digital signals are isolated via high-speed optocouplers. All signals are then passed to the backplane bus in a standardized format.

Key Advantages:

  • 1500 V DC isolation on analog channels for safety
  • Signal buffering prevents loading of field devices
  • Mixed analog/digital in compact form factor
  • LED channel status for quick diagnostics

Applicable Industries:
Chemical processing, power plants, water treatment, food & beverage, pulp & paper.

Installation Requirements:

  • Mount on 35 mm DIN rail (EN 50022)
  • Use shielded twisted-pair cable for analog signals
  • Ground cable shields at controller end only
  • Verify input range (0–10 V or 4–20 mA) matches field device

Usage Precautions:

  • Do not apply voltage exceeding 30 V DC to analog inputs
  • Ensure 4–20 mA loop power is supplied externally if needed
  • Do not mix PNP and NPN sensors on same module
  • Maintain ambient temperature within -20°C to +60°C
