Product Description
The EP1018-0002 digital input module is a highly versatile option for industrial automation systems. Featuring eight inputs that accommodate a wide 24 V DC voltage range, it facilitates extensive connectivity while maintaining dependable performance under fluctuating conditions. The module's polyamide housing guarantees protection against environmental hazards through certifications like IP65, IP66, and IP67. Manufactured from this durable thermoplastic, the enclosure withstands moisture, dust, and mechanical stresses. Even in challenging outdoor settings or areas with airborne debris, it continues operating as intended.
In addition to construction suitable for industrial sites, the EP1018-0002 supports fast and precise detection through an input filter of just 10 microseconds. This rapid scanning allows applications to respond immediately to changes in signals. It also draws minimal current of about 3 milliamps per input, conserving energy without compromising functionality. Robust enough for deployment across diverse tasks, the compact dimensions of 30 by 126 by 26.5 millimeters let the EP1018-0002 integrate seamlessly into restricted spaces. Standard M3 fixing points further simplify installation into control cabinets or machinery. Transport and assembly crews appreciate its manageable size for work in tight quarters.
Beyond physical attributes, the EP1018-0002 meets numerous certifications including CE, UL, and ATEX. This regulatory compliance gives engineers confidence that the module behaves reliably according to international standards. It also operates from a remarkably wide temperature scope of -25°C to 60°C, far surpassing limits of basic modules. With more than eight inputs activated by signals anywhere in a 24 V range, plus protection against an array of environmental hazards, the multifaceted EP1018-0002 proves itself an invaluable asset for automated lines. Its combination of extensive connectivity, fast responses, and ruggedized design make it an optimal choice wherever dependable digital inputs are required within demanding industrial settings.
