Product Description
The I/O module 3DI486.6 is made up of thirty-two digital inputs that are organized in two groups, isolated from each other, and work at 24VDC. The module includes status indicators for monitoring the I/O function on each channel and the I/O power supply on each input group; diagnostic access is through software as well as LED indicators. An internal 5VDC source provides a total of 1.2W power. The channels are electrically isolated from the PLC and between input groups to ensure reliable and safe operation. This module meets global standards for industrial control equipment, with certifications such as UKCA, CE or cULus (E115267).
Among other things, the hardware input filter has a reaction time of less than one millisecond, ensuring high-speed and accurate signal processing using digital inputs with sink and source input circuits. The 3DI486.6 conforms to EN 60529 requirements, which means it has an IP20 protection degree, hence can operate within various environmental conditions. It operates in an ambient temperature range of 0-60C; it may be stored at temperatures below -25C to above +70C. Its highest efficiency is between relative humidities of about 5% and about 95%.
The physical size of this unit allows it to be mounted on base units as well as extension modules; also, it fits into the System2005 single-width configuration physically. To install correctly, you need to purchase two TB718 terminal blocks separately. There are available terminal blocks like the following: 7TB7189 (18-pin screw clamp terminal block) or either 7TB71891 (18-pin cage clamp terminal block). They offer different connection options depending upon what your application requires structurally configurable speaking; whatever these connections are assigned, they will fulfill all requirements that could be specified thereat conveniently therein so it usefully serves this purpose without having any other parts attached thereto except 3DI486.6 and a material number that is assigned as such for identification purposes.
