*) Constant current; short-term higher currents are to be avoided and can lead to thermal overload (damage).
**) The “GND” potential is internally coupled to the “0 V” potential, but is subject to a reduced current carrying capacity.
***) The connection point connects directly to the DIN rail contact.
Shield connections should generally be de-energized (DC)! See analog technical information in the Beckhoff analog manual.
If possible, an external shield connection, e.g. via Beckhoff ZB8511 or similar, is preferable.
