Product Description

The B & R Automation X20HB28G0 is a branch module in the X20 Series which is specially programmed for EtherCAT communication. It is an EtherCAT branch module which also includes two EtherCAT junctions to enable the integration into different network structures. The X20HB28G0 module contains two RJ45 interfaces for Ethernet physical layer transmission rate of 10/100 Mbit/s. The module functions with the power supply voltage of 24V DC and has a current consumption of 200 mA. As for the physical characteristics, the X20HB28G0 device is small-sized with the dimensions of 100 x 25 x 85 mm and its weight is 120 grams. The module is designed to be mounted on the DIN rail which is one of the most popular ways of mounting devices in industrial electrical cabinets and enclosures.

The housing of the module is made of polycarbonate material that is very strong and light at the same time and it also can stand some rough handling or unfavorable conditions. The X20HB28G0 module also comes with an IP20 rating as well. This rating makes it appropriate to be used in environments that may come into contact with dust and water in limited way.

This module is developed in such a way that it can operate optimally under different conditions of the environment. Its operating temperature range is from -25 degrees C to 60 degrees C, and therefore is suitable for use in cold as well as in warm climates. Temperature for storage is -40 to 85 centigrade, which makes the module ready for use even after it has been exposed to very harsh conditions during transportation or when it is being stored. Furthermore, it is also compliant with IEC 60068-2-6 standard of vibration and IEC 60068-2-27 standard of shock.
