Installation Guidelines
Mounting: Due to its IP65/66/67 rating, this module can be mounted directly on machinery or in open field locations. Ensure the mounting surface is vibration-resistant according to EN 60068-2-6.
Connectivity: Use M12 A-coded cables for IO-Link communication and M12 screw-type connectors for the 8 digital inputs.
Power Supply: The module requires 24 V DC. Ensure current consumption (100 mA from L+ and 20 mA + load for auxiliary power) is within the specifications of your power distribution system.
Environment: While protected against dust and water (IP67), avoid mounting in areas where chemicals not compatible with the housing material might be present.
