Phoenix Contact Axioline F 4-channel I/O modules

Click2Contact

Phoenix Contact has extended its I/O product line for the Axioline F control cabinet. The 8-channel modules for receiving and transmitting standard signals and for temperature measurement are now complemented by compact 4-channel versions.

The input modules for current and voltage capture any common standard signal in synch with the bus and offer an integrated sensor power supply. Their high crosstalk attenuation and robust design, in terms of EMC and various environmental conditions, ensure that analog signals are picked up accurately and reliably. Short-circuit-protected outputs can transmit current signals for load resistances of up to 500 ohms.

Two 4-channel temperature measurement versions are also available. The RTD4 module serves to collect signals from resistive temperature sensors. The sensors can be connected to the short-circuit-protected inputs using two, three or four wires. The UTH4 modules are suitable for applications with thermocouple sensors. Thermocouples are needed for measuring high temperatures in environments with large EMC loads. High-impedance decoupled differential inputs and EMC resistance even for unshielded sensor wires result in an accuracy of ±0.01% of the measuring range final value.

The modules can be connected to different bus couplers and support fieldbuses and networks including Profibus and Profinet, Sercos 3, ethernet and EtherCAT.
