Additional digital input
module compatible with the Profibus-DP, DeviceNet and CANopen fieldbus systems

When fitted with an integrated communication interface, the module can be directly connected to up to 16 digital inputs on the fieldbus network.
Additionally, it features two connectors that can be connected in series to optimise electric wiring.

With a width of only 54mm, this ASCO JOUCOMATIC NUMATICS active distributor is the most compact module on the market.
Thanks to its integrated communication interface, this compact module can be connected to pneumatic distribution islands or directly to the fieldbus system. This will in turn save space and allow the module to be installed close to the actuators.

Input, power and bus connectors, M12 type with tapped metal clip rings.
Cutting fluid, vibration and shock-resistant, with wide temperature tolerance ranging up to 55°C and suitable for a harsh industrial environment.

All inputs, including supplies, are continuously analysed. The PLC is continuously notified of the module's comprehensive status. When detecting an error, the faulty input LED changes to red and an error message is sent to the PLC through the fieldbus system.
The following errors are detected by the module:

• voltage surges
• short-circuits
• inappropriate response frame from the module
• power supply problem (when power < 18 V DC or > 30 V DC)
• cut cables (in accordance with DESINA standards)

Status LED indicator with arrow pointing to the input, thus making active input reading easier and more reliable.

Transparent labels identify the inputs

Power supply, bus and input wiring are screen printed on the module (with permanent ink)
