Product Description

Description

The BECKHOFF IP2301-B510 is a high-performance, decentralized Fieldbus Box designed for direct machine installation without a control cabinet. By combining 4 digital inputs and 4 digital outputs in a single unit, this device enables direct localized acquisition and control of proximity sensors, switches, and small actuator loads. It features an integrated CANopen interface to facilitate fast, deterministic communication across decentralized automation systems.

Housed in a rugged, moisture-resistant enclosure, the BECKHOFF IP2301-B510 uses standardized M8 connections for all I/O signals, ensuring quick, error-free wiring. Its compact physical footprint and direct fieldbus integration reduce wiring overhead, simplify troubleshooting, and lower commissioning times in robust, distributed automation topologies.

Features

  • Direct CANopen network integration with automatic baud rate detection up to 1 Mbaud.
  • 4 digital inputs with 3.0 ms input filter time to minimize contact bounce and signal noise.
  • 4 short-circuit-proof digital outputs, delivering up to 0.5 A per channel for reliable valve and load control.
  • M8 screw-type connection points for high vibrational stability on localized I/O signals.
  • IP65, IP66, and IP67 ingress protection ratings, allowing for direct-on-machine installation.
  • Built-in diagnostic support, including SDO configuration access through software.

Applications

  • Decentralized machine tool control and remote sensor clusters.
  • Conveyor and material handling control where high ingress protection is required.
  • Automated sorting systems and localized pneumatic valve terminal control.
  • Assembly lines and packaging machinery operating in harsh environmental conditions.
