EP23x9-0022 - Introduction

EP23x9-0022 - Introduction 1:

16 digital inputs or outputs, 24 VDC

The EP23x9-0022 EtherCAT Box has 16 digital channels that can each be operated as inputs or outputs. It is not necessary to configure whether a channel (pin 2 and 4 of the M12) is to be used as input or output; the input circuit is permanently connected internally to the output driver, so that a set output is automatically displayed in the input process image. The outputs process load currents up to 0.5 A, are short-circuit proof and protected against inverse polarity.

The inputs of the EP2339-0022 have a filter of 3.0 ms.
The inputs of the EP2349-0022 have a filter of 10 µs.

The outputs handle load currents up to 0.5 A and are short-circuit-proof and protected against reverse polarity. The total current of all outputs is limited to 4 A.

The connected sensors are supplied by an internal, short-circuit-proof driver module with a total of 0.5 A for all sensors. The inputs and outputs are supplied via UP. The signal status is indicated by LEDs. The signals are connected via M12 connectors.

EP23x9-0022 - Introduction 2:

Supply of the connected sensors from UP, not from US

In contrast to many other modules, the EP23x9-0022 EtherCAT Box supplies digital sensors from the UP peripheral voltage and not from the US control voltage! Nevertheless, an overload of the sensor supply (current > 0.5 A) is also indicated here by the illuminated red US LED.

Notice

For switch-off in the event of a fault, do not supply sensors externally

If the design of your installation is such that the power supply voltage UP is switched off in the event of a fault, you must not power the connected sensors externally, but only through EP23x9-0022! Otherwise, when the UP energy is switched off, EP23x9-0022 can continue to draw energy from the external sensor supply, and the outputs will not be switched off.
