Performance Parameters
- Operating Temperature: 0°C to 60°C
- Storage Temperature: -40°C to 85°C
- Power Supply: 24 VDC via backplane
- Protection Rating: IP20
Material Composition
Constructed with durable, flame-retardant industrial plastics and conformal-coated electronics for maximum environmental protection.
Structural Characteristics
Single-width 200 Series FBM form factor. Interfaces with the backplane via precision pins and connects to field devices through a specific Terminal Assembly.
Operating Principle
Monitors the voltage state of connected field contacts for inputs, and receives digital control commands from the controller to drive corresponding output channels for controlling field loads.
Installation Requirements
Mount on a compatible 200 Series baseplate. Ensure the control cabinet is well-ventilated and properly grounded. Verify that the field load voltage and current ratings do not exceed module specifications.
Usage Precautions
Ensure the field voltage matches the module’s specified input and output ranges. Always observe standard ESD precautions during handling. Never exceed the maximum current rating per channel or per module.
