Overview
4, 8 and 16-channel digital input (DI) modules
Apart from the standard type of delivery in an individual package, selected I/O modules and BaseUnits are also available in a pack of 10 units. The pack of 10 units enables the amount of waste to be reduced considerably, as well as saving the time and cost of unpacking individual modules.
For different requirements, the digital input modules offer:
Function classes Basic, Standard, High Feature and High Speed as well as fail-safe DI (see "Fail-safe I/O modules")
BaseUnits for single or multiple-conductor connection with automatic slot coding
Potential distributor modules for system-integrated expansion with additional potential terminals
Individual system-integrated potential group formation with self-assembling voltage busbars (a separate power module is no longer required for ET 200SP)
Option of connecting sensors compliant with IEC 61131 type 1, 2 or 3 (module-dependent) for rated voltages of up to 24 V DC or 230 V AC
PNP (sinking input) and NPN (sourcing input) versions
Clear labeling on front of module
LEDs for diagnostics, status, supply voltage and faults (e.g. wire break/short-circuit)
Electronically readable and non-volatile writable rating plate (I&M data 0 to 3)
Extended functions and additional operating modes in some cases
