September 9, 2009 – Sixteen I/O points in one 12mm-wide module make WAGO’s 16-point I/O Ribbon Cable modules a compact solution for streamlining control-to-machine wiring. The DIN-rail mount modules feature 16 inputs (750-1400), 16 outputs (750-1500) or 8 inputs/8 outputs (750-1502) and an HE10 ribbon cable interface. With the flat ribbon cable, the modules facilitate the use of pre-wired assemblies to minimize wiring time and errors. Additional project costs savings are achieved through one of the industry’s lowest costs per channel.
16-point I/O Pairs with Interface Boards
The 16-point I/O modules are compatible with WAGO’s interface boards, ranging from an LED-equipped 120VAC to 24VDC input interface board, to a 3.75”-wide, 16-channel relay interface board featuring 5mm plug-in relays. For additional voltage flexibility, the 16-point I/O modules can pair with select interface boards and connect to any voltage up to 120 VAC — 6 Amps. All 16-point I/O modules carry onboard LEDs for status indication and utilize CAGE CLAMP Spring Pressure Terminations for field connections. WAGO can also design and manufacture custom interface boards.
As part of the fieldbus-independent WAGO-I/O-SYSTEM, the 16-point I/O modules readily integrate into existing WAGO I/O nodes and operate with all WAGO fieldbus couplers/controllers. Extensive monitoring and troubleshooting capabilities are provided via WAGO-I/O-CHECK software. The 16-Point I/O modules also increase the flexibility of existing Allen-Bradley Controllers via WAGO’s free Add-On Instructions. The instructions enable users to integrate WAGO I/O, including the new 16-point modules, into RS-Logix 5000 systems via WAGO fieldbus couplers. WAGO is the leader in spring pressure connection technology that eliminates loose wires resulting from vibration and temperature cycling, while providing highly reliable, corrosion-resistant and maintenance-free connections.
