Product Description
The B & R Automation X20IF1061 is an interface module of the X20 series and is used for interfacing and data transfer in Industrial automation systems. Another important feature of this module is the status indicators for both the module and the bus to enable the operators monitor the working status. This is evident through its maximum transfer rate of 12 Mbit/s that aid in data transfer through the X20IF1061. This transfer rate is useful in facilitating the fast switching of information between the various parts of an automation system.
The module comprises the electrical separation between the PLC and IF1; this is important to isolate the electrical supply to avoid the circulation of electrical currents that may affect the performance of the components. Designed for horizontal installation, the X20IF1061 can function in the temperature of -25 to 60 degrees C making it applicable for many industries. Concerning vertical integrations, the module works within the range of -25 and 50 degrees Celsius.
The X20IF1061 also contains 8 MB SDRAM memory that is enough to store cyclic data as well as possible. The module supports 3. 5 kB of cyclic input data and 3. 5 kB of cyclic output data, which can facilitate an effective data transfer and processing in those automation tasks that involve repeated data exchange. As for energy consumption, the X20IF1061 is also energy friendly because its power consumption is just 1. 4 W.
