Description

Decentralized automation architectures utilize the IP2002-B528 digital output module to interface directly with actuators in demanding industrial environments. This high-protection BECKHOFF Fieldbus Box features 8 digital outputs, handling binary control signals with a maximum load capacity of 0.5 A per channel. Integrated with a DeviceNet interface and an onboard T-connector, this module simplifies bus topology design by enabling direct daisy-chaining of the network cable without external splitters.

Housed in a robust, fully sealed enclosure, the IP2002-B528 is designed for cabinet-free installation directly on machinery. This eliminates the need for terminal boxes, reduces wiring complexity, and optimizes signal integrity across long distances. The short-circuit proof outputs and clear LED diagnostics ensure high operational reliability and minimal downtime during maintenance cycles.

Features

  • 8 digital outputs rated at 24 V DC, 0.5 A per channel.
  • Integrated DeviceNet interface with an onboard T-connector for simplified network looping.
  • Robust IP67 ingress protection rating for installation directly in wet, dusty, or harsh environments.
  • Connection of field actuators via standard, vibration-resistant M12 screw connectors.
  • Short-circuit protected outputs with individual channel diagnostic indicators.
  • Compact, lightweight design suitable for mounting directly on moving machine elements.

Applications

  • Automotive assembly lines and robotic cells
  • Material handling systems and industrial conveyors
  • Packaging machinery and automated sorting systems
  • Decentralized process equipment requiring IP67 local I/O distribution

FAQ

What is the primary function of the Beckhoff IP2002-B528?

The Beckhoff IP2002-B528 is an IP67-rated decentralized Fieldbus Box that provides 8 digital outputs (24 V DC, 0.5 A) and communicates via a DeviceNet network.

What are the advantages of the integrated T-connector on this module?

The integrated T-connector allows the DeviceNet network line to be directly daisy-chained from one Fieldbus Box to another, reducing the need for external T-junctions and additional cabling.

Is a protective cabinet required to mount the IP2002-B528?

No, because the IP2002-B528 features an IP67-rated enclosure, it can be mounted directly onto machinery in harsh environments without an electrical cabinet.

Are the outputs protected against short circuits?

Yes, all 8 digital outputs on the IP2002-B528 are fully short-circuit protected and include diagnostic status LEDs.
