Product Description

Description

Designed for direct installation in demanding industrial environments without a control cabinet, the IP2301-B400 provides a robust interface between Interbus networks and decentralized field sensors or actuators. This fieldbus box features a balanced combination of four digital inputs and four digital outputs in a compact, IP67-rated housing. By routing physical signals directly at the machine level, the module significantly minimizes wiring overhead, simplifies diagnostics, and optimizes signal propagation times.

The integrated digital inputs feature a 3 ms filter time to prevent contact bounce issues, while the short-circuit-proof digital outputs deliver up to 0.5 A per channel. Standardized M8 connectors ensure secure, vibration-resistant sensor and actuator cabling, making this unit highly suitable for dynamic mechanical setups.

Features

  • Direct Interbus fieldbus connection for high-speed decentralized communication.
  • Four digital inputs (24 V DC) with an integrated 3 ms input filter.
  • Four short-circuit proof digital outputs rated at 0.5 A per channel.
  • Compact, space-saving design with robust M8 connection technology.
  • IP67 protection class allowing direct mounting on machines without protective enclosures.

Applications

  • Decentralized machine control and plant automation architectures.
  • Automotive manufacturing assembly lines utilizing Interbus fieldbus networks.
  • Material handling, packaging machinery, and conveyor line routing.
  • Industrial robotics and end-of-arm tooling control setups.
