VBA-4E2A1A-KE3-ZEL/E2L/SEL

AS-i Module with safe Output

Description

The AS-Interface safety output module VBA-4E2A1A-KE3-ZEL/E2L/SEL is a switch cabinet module with a safe electronic output. The module has four inputs and two standard outputs. The inputs consist of three conventional inputs and one EDM input. The safety output module allows safe switching processes to take place remotely in the box. The parallel wiring of safe actuators in the box is a thing of the past. The housing is only 22.5 mm wide and takes up little space in the switch cabinet. A snap-on function mounts the module onto the 35 mm mounting strip in line with EN 50022. An addressing socket is integrated in the module. The connection is made via plug-in terminals. Four-way (black) terminal blocks are used for the inputs. The AS-Interface is connected via a two-way terminal block (yellow). This allows the sensors or the power supply to be easily separated for commissioning or service. Power is supplied to the inputs and connected sensors by an external auxiliary power supply. Yellow LEDs display the current switching status of the inputs and outputs. Red LEDs display communication errors and indicate that the A0 output bit is set. A green LED displays the operating voltage and the 0 address. Switching the programming plug accesses addressing for the safe output slave and the integrated A/B slave. Another A/B slave is available for diagnostics.
