Product Description:

The X20DO8232 module from B & R Automation in the X20 Series is a high-performance digital output module designed to meet the demands of modern industrial automation systems. This module is equipped with eight 12 VDC digital outputs, which are configured for 1-wire connections. Each output can handle a nominal current of 2 A, with a total nominal current capacity of 8 A across all channels. This makes the X20DO8232 suitable for controlling a range of devices and actuators requiring reliable and efficient switching.

The module is engineered with several key protective features to enhance its reliability and safety. It includes thermal cutoff protection to prevent overheating by disconnecting the outputs if temperatures exceed safe limits. Additionally, the X20DO8232 is equipped with reverse polarity protection, which safeguards the module from damage caused by incorrect wiring. Internal inverse diodes further protect the outputs from potential voltage spikes, ensuring the longevity and dependable operation of the module.The X20DO8232 supports FET positive switching, which is effective for applications requiring efficient switching with minimal electrical noise. The module offers quick switching times with delays of less than 300 us for both transitions from 0 to 1 and 1 to 0, allowing for precise and rapid control.

For diagnostics and monitoring, the X20DO8232 features status indicators for each I/O channel, as well as for the operating state and overall module status. It provides comprehensive diagnostics including module run/error status, output status, and supply voltage monitoring. These features facilitate easy monitoring and troubleshooting, enhancing overall system reliability.Power consumption is managed efficiently, with the module consuming 0.22 W from the bus and 0.82 W from external I/O. The power dissipation due to actuators is calculated to be +4.48 W, which is important for understanding the thermal management requirements of the module. The X20DO8232 is housed in an IP20-rated enclosure, providing protection against accidental contact with internal components and larger solid objects. This ensures that the module can be used safely in a variety of industrial environments.
