Product Description

The 3DO486.6 Digital Output Module delivers versatile and robust control for a wide range of industrial automation applications. As part of the trusted System 2005 Series, the module supports 16 discrete outputs operating at a nominal 24 VDC with industry-leading protection features. Each output channel can reliably switch 0.5 amps continuously to actuate devices like valves, pumps, and solenoids. The module sustains a total current capacity of 8.0 amps as well, providing ample reserves for complex load combinations.

In addition to output current rating, thermal shutdown safeguards against overheating while inductive kickback protection shields electronics from harm. Rigorous testing under demanding simulations ensures even unexpected transients cannot compromise operation. Reverse polarity detection further forestalls damage from incorrect cabling. These multilayered safety mechanisms allow confident, unattended running anywhere environmental conditions warrant. Operating temperatures range from 0 to 60 degrees Celsius, a broad span accommodating everything from refrigerated warehouses to sunny rooftop enclosures. Compact form factor fits neatly into dedicated or modular racks. However small, strict IP20 enclosure sealing still shields internals from common debris. Advanced materials excel at heat dissipation throughout components' useful lifecycles.

Compliance with stringent CE, UKCA, and cULus standards signifies suitability nearly anywhere. Extensive certifications afford peace of mind in regulated sectors such as automotive, medical, and food processing. As part of a globally respected portfolio, the 3DO486.6 delivers functions expected with mature automation hardware including maintenance-free productivity. Engineers configure it as easily as higher profile models. Abundant I/O, protection features, design flexibility, and certifications combine to make the 3DO486.6 a versatile workhorse for building automation, machine control, conveyor integration, packaging lines, and similar factory-floor applications. Its all-in-one attributes present a future-proof foundation requiring minimal supplemental hardware. Ultimately, customers gain maximum control capacity from minimal cabinet space.
