Transistor digital output module for compact controllers, 16DO-PNP, Screw terminals XBE-TP16A

Digital Output Module – Reliable Control in Automation

The XBE-TP16A digital output module is a component dedicated to LS Electric XGB compact controllers, providing 16 independent PNP type transistor outputs. The module's construction based on optocouplers guarantees galvanic isolation, increasing resistance to interference and ensuring safe operation in demanding industrial conditions. This makes it suitable for both simple applications and more complex automation systems.

Construction and Application

The XBE-TP16A module is designed to control loads with a voltage of 12-24 VDC. PNP transistor outputs require connecting the load to the positive power supply, and the module shorts the output to ground to turn it on. Screw terminals facilitate quick and secure cable mounting. The module finds application in a wide range of applications, such as:

• Control of solenoid valves
• Switching lights on/off
• Control of motor operation
• Automation of production processes
• Alarm and signaling systems

Characteristics and Benefits

The XBE-TP16A module stands out with several key features that translate into benefits for installers and users:

• High performance: Each output can handle a current of up to 0.5A, and the sum of the currents of all outputs on one common circuit must not exceed 2A. This allows you to control various loads without the risk of damaging the module.
• Fast response time: The switching time (On/Off) is only 1 ms, ensuring precise and dynamic process control.
• Safety: Galvanic isolation implemented using optocouplers protects the controller from overvoltages and interference from the load. Zener diode protects against overvoltage.
• Easy installation: Screw terminals provide convenient and reliable cable connection. In addition, the module is compatible with standard cables with a diameter of 2.8 mm or less.
• Wide supply voltage range: The module can operate with a supply voltage of 12/24 VDC ± 10%, providing flexibility in choosing a power supply.
• Environmental resistance: The module maintains its properties in a temperature range of 0°C to 55°C and humidity from 5% to 95% (without condensation). It is also resistant to vibration and electromagnetic interference.
