B&R 0GH-IF260

Model Series: X20 System (IF = Input Field)

Product Overview:
The 0GH-IF260 is a 16-channel digital input module from B&R’s X20 I/O system. It is designed for acquiring binary (ON/OFF) signals from sensors, switches, and other field devices in industrial automation applications. The module connects to the X20 bus (Ethernet-based) and provides galvanically isolated input channels.

Applicable Industries:
General industrial automation, assembly lines, conveyor systems, packaging machines, material handling, process control.

Installation Requirements:

  • Mount on standard DIN rail TS 35 (7.5 mm module width)

Usage Notes:

  • Do not exceed 30 V DC on any input channel
  • Match input type (PNP/NPN) to field device wiring
  • Use shielded cable and ground shield at controller end only
  • Verify input filter setting matches mechanical switch debounce requirements
