IP240x-Bxxx, IE240x Signal Connection

8 Channel Digital Output 24 V_DC, I_max = 0.5 A, 8 digital inputs, 3.0 ms filter

The IP240x digital output modules connect the binary control signals from the automation unit on to the actuators at the process level. The 8 outputs handle load currents of up to 0.5 A, and indicate their status through light emitting diodes. The signals are optionally connected via 8 mm snap-on plugs (IP2400) or screw-in M8 connectors (IP2400). The outputs are short-circuit safe and protected against inverse connection. One output is located together with one input on an S8 or M8 socket.

The digital inputs acquire the binary control signals from the process level and transmit them to the higher-level automation unit. The signal state is indicated by means of light emitting diodes. The signals are optionally connected via 8 mm snap-on plugs or screw-in M8 connectors.
The sensors are supplied from the control voltage U_S. The load voltage, U_P, is required for the output drivers. If U_P and U_S are used for passing the power on, the maximum current must not exceed 4 A.
