Product Description

The X20ZF0000/1 dummy module provides a cost-effective means of occupying empty module slots within B&R's distributed X20 system racks. During reconfiguration of I/O modules or other adjustments to component layout, this placeholder maintains consistent addressing across the X20 backplane bus. Even though electrically inert, the module undergoes relevant testing and certification according to industrial standards like CE, UKCA, ATEX, and IP20 ratings.

This ensures mechanical and environmental compatibility when integrated amid functioning I/O modules in the rack. The consistent 12.5mm mechanical pitch and bus connectivity of the X20ZF0000/1 allows it to function inconspicuously as a structural stand-in. Engineers can conveniently relocate modules without concern for address shifts from vacant positions.

The module demonstrates durability as well, with qualification to withstand -25 degrees C to 60 degrees C horizontal or -25 degrees C to 50 degrees C vertical operating temperatures plus 0.15mm/g^2 vibrations. This confirms reliable long-term operation even within machinery enclosures. With storage rated from -40 degrees C to 85 degrees C, the dummy module provides stable placeholder functionality over a wide industrial temperature range. Overall, the X20ZF0000/1 facilitates flexible design and maintenance of X20 distributed systems through reliably occupying empty spaces to preserve addressing stability.
