Product Description

Beckhoff IP Compact Box IP1001-B318 is a fast and miniature form factor interface module suitable for implementation in industrial automation networks. Being part of the IP Compact Box Series, this device demonstrates performance and reliability for communication and control in challenging conditions. This includes the capacity for data transfer up to 12 Mbaud - which has an auto sensing function that guarantees the quick and effective data transfer into an industrial network. Being equipped with 1 x M12 socket, the IP1001-B318 boasts a bus interface by which the device can be easily connected and integrated into existing automation networks. This versatility is desirable for most modern applications in the industries since flexibility is highly valued therein. Furthermore, the module may be configured with the KS2000 software or the connected controller, and it also makes configuration and customization easier.

Control voltage of the IP1001-B318 device is 24 V DC with tolerance of -15 to +20 % that would enable the powering of the device at different power conditions. This wide range also increases the usability of the module in industries where fluctuations in the power supply are possible. This is specifically true on the IP1001-B318 model which has incorporated the three protection levels of IP65/ 66/ 67. It also shows that the module is protected against water and dust which means that it is good to be used under conditions where equipment is exposed to moisture and dust.
