Product Description:
Beckhoff manufactures the IE2042-0000. To provide mechanical reliability and electrical continuity under tough operating conditions the Beckhoff IE2042-0000 is a robust industrial module with eight isolated digital output channels all with M12 screw type connectors. These connectors are designed to prevent loosening due to sudden mechanical forces and continuous vibration, which is common in industrial automation. Since each channel is separate 8 different actuators or weights can be controlled precisely and simultaneously for complex automation applications. M12 connectors have good conductivity and stability to reduce electrical noise and signal loss, which is important for maintaining continuity in fast industrial networks.
The device is designed to be flexible to serve various industrial applications, including ohmic, inductive, and light loads. Inductive loads like motors and solenoids have dynamic issues like inductive reactance and back EMF, which require strong output protection. Ohmic loads have a stable resistance where current and voltage are proportional. Lamp loads need accurate current control during the inrush period to avoid early deterioration due to nonlinear resistance caused by filament heating. Despite the system voltage variation, each output maintains stability by delivering a nominal voltage of 24V DC with a tolerance of 20.4V DC to 28.8V DC. Protective circuits inside each output channel will activate under short-circuit conditions, usually at 4 A, to prevent thermal overload and protect internal electronics and connected equipment. Channels are rated for 2A max.
The IE2042-0000 has power and environmental control features in addition to its outputs. The internal output electronics are supported by 50mA per channel auxiliary current and 25mA base current when the module is not in use. Power integrity is ensured by dual M8 male sockets, which provide steady power without the need for cascading downstream connections. For the environment, the module operates reliably between 0°C to 55°C and can withstand storage temperatures from -25°C to +85°C. The mechanical design is tested to withstand stress and vibration forces common in the industrial environment according to EN 60068-2-6 and EN 60068-2-27. Electromagnetic compatibility meets EN 61000-6-2 and EN 61000-6-4 requirements for low emission and immunity to ambient interference. The IE2042-0000 has precise control over industrial processes and can be easily integrated into a digital automation system with 8 outputs in the process image.
Frequently Asked Questions about IE2042-0000:
Q: What is the Beckhoff IE2042-0000 extension box unit?
A: The Beckhoff IE2042-0000 is part of the IE Extension Box Units series.
