Product Description

Description

The BECKHOFF IP2002-B318 is an 8-channel digital output Fieldbus Box designed for decentralized industrial automation architectures. Operating on the PROFIBUS DP communication protocol, this device integrates directly into machine-level topologies without requiring a control cabinet, utilizing an IP65, IP66, and IP67 protection class housing suitable for harsh environments. The unit features eight digital outputs capable of switching up to 0.5 A per channel with individual short-circuit protection.

Equipped with an integrated T-connector for the PROFIBUS interface and M12 connection technology for signal wiring, the IP2002-B318 simplifies network integration and maintenance. It supports automatic baud rate detection up to 12 Mbaud and configuration via software tools or controller parameters. Control and load voltage supplies are routed through M8 power connections, providing feed and downstream distribution capabilities in an XXL polyamide housing format.

Features

  • 8-channel digital output module in an XXL Fieldbus Box format
  • Integrated PROFIBUS DP interface with automatic data transfer rate detection up to 12 Mbaud
  • Integrated T-connector with M12 socket and plug (B-coded) for bus connection
  • Nominal output voltage of 24 V DC with a maximum output current of 0.5 A per channel
  • Individually short-circuit proof outputs supporting ohmic, inductive, and lamp loads
  • M8 power supply connections for feed and downstream power distribution
  • High environmental protection rating of IP65, IP66, and IP67 for machine-level mounting

Applications

  • Decentralized digital actuator control in machine building and plant engineering
  • PROFIBUS-based industrial automation networks operating outside control cabinets
  • Switching of ohmic, inductive, and lamp loads in distributed production lines
