Description
The PLC-…-EIK 1-SVN 24… electronic sensor terminal block converts the variable resistance of a NAMUR sensor into a digital signal that can be read by a PLC.
In addition, the internal circuitry monitors the sensor side for a short circuit or wire break and indicates these errors via the integrated LED.
Thanks to a corresponding resistance circuit, the PLC-…-EIK 1-SVN 24… can be used to monitor all mechanical switches (N/C or N/O contacts) for short circuits and/or wire breaks.
In addition to a high packing density, this switching amplifier features the following:
– Stabilized supply voltage for the NAMUR proximity switch
– Defined recognition and evaluation of the analog sensor signal
– Monitoring of the sensor cable for short circuits and wire breaks; a fault is indicated by the red LED
– Status display (high signal) via green LED
– 24 V/50 mA digital output for directly connecting programmable logic controllers
– Positive or negative error output depending on the version
– Additional output for error messages
– Connection option for PLC V8 adapter
– Bridging and labeling with standard terminal block accessories
