Description

Designed for distributed industrial automation environments, the IP2000-B400 serves as a robust Interbus fieldbus box featuring 8 digital output channels. This low-profile module enables direct connection of binary control signals from the Interbus network to actuators, contactors, solenoid valves, and indicator lamps. Engineered with a highly resilient polyamide housing, the device allows for direct mounting on machines and process equipment without requiring an additional protective control cabinet.

The IP2000-B400 manages decentralized digital output processing with high-speed performance, achieving an approximate 1 ms data transfer time when operating up to 10 modules. The integration of standard M8 and M23 connections ensures stable mechanical and electrical interfaces under demanding factory floor conditions.

Features

8-channel digital output layout handling up to 0.5 A per channel.
Integrated Interbus communication interface with data transfer speeds up to 500 kBaud.
Short-circuit protected digital outputs with an auxiliary power configuration.
Robust IP65/66/67 rating for superior resistance to moisture, dust, and environmental contaminants.
Standardized M23 connections for secure, vibration-resistant bus cabling.
Compact 30 mm width optimization for tight physical mounting spaces.

Applications

Automotive assembly lines and robotic welding cells.
Conveyor systems and high-throughput material handling.
Packaging machinery and automated bottling plants.
De-centralized field I/O processing in harsh processing environments.
