Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure the power supply is disconnected before installing or removing the module from the Field Control station.
• Mount the module securely in the designated slot to ensure proper backplane connection.
• Use shielded cabling for output signals to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) in high-noise environments.
• Verify that the load current does not exceed the 0.5 A per point or 4 A per module limit to prevent fuse activation.
• Maintain adequate ventilation around the module to ensure optimal thermal performance.

FAQ
