Applicable Industries:

• Oil & Gas — Valve control in processing plants
• Chemical & Petrochemical — Solenoid and actuator switching
• Water & Wastewater — Pump and valve automation
• Power Generation — Auxiliary equipment control
• Manufacturing — Conveyor, packaging, and assembly line control

Installation Requirements:

• Mount on F3 series main rack (F3B-20HR or equivalent)
• Ensure proper backplane connection with locking mechanism engaged
• Use shielded cable for field wiring when noise environment exceeds 100V
• Maximum cable length from module to load: 50 m (recommended ≤ 20 m for high-speed switching)

Precautions:

• Do not exceed 0.5 A per point or 4.0 A total module current
• Do not connect AC loads directly — outputs are DC only (24VDC)
• Use external flyback diode for loads exceeding 0.3 A inductive current
• Ensure proper grounding of the 24VDC power supply common terminal
