Product Description

The part number 3EX150. 60-2 is a Remote I/O Master module from B&R that is used in industrial automation systems to improve the functionality of the system with its excellent features and durability. This module works in the frame of the B&R System 2005; it offers the key functions required for the extensive control of the industrial processes.

It has an electrically isolated RS485 interface with data transmission rates of 100 kBit/s to 2000 kBit/s that enables communication over long distances with high reliability. The maximum range can be 1200 meters at the slowest baud rate and 100 meters at the fastest baud rate. The 3EX150. 60-2 supports up to 31 remote slaves and does not require the use of repeaters thereby making it suitable for use in large-scale industries. It is rated to consume power not more than 5. 5 W, energy saving, and stable work in the long run. The module has a small form factor that makes it simple to incorporate into main racks; this enhances the tidiness and order of the control system. This module comes with status LEDs that are used to indicate the state of the module and these include RUN, ERROR, Tx, and Rx LEDs. This feature assists in fast and accurate identification and solving of the issues that may cause the breakdown of industrial operations. It has a number switch for addressing the slave and a switch for configuring the baud rate details for easy configuration and installation. The RS485 interface of the product is connected via a 9-pin DSUB connector, and electrical isolation makes the connection safer and less prone to interference. The pin assignments of the interface are the shield, data, transmit enable, ground, and isolated power supply which enables it to be used in any industrial environment.

It also has provisions for external terminating resistance to enhance long-distance communication within the module's design. The 3EX150. 60-2 Remote I/O Master module is a reliable, efficient, and durable module in the control of industrial automation systems. This particular software has many features and meets all international standards; thus, it will be a great solution for engineers who want to enhance their control systems. The product is available at Wake Industrial with a one-year warranty period.
