Product Description:
The M-2510 005 is an analog input module manufactured by Beckhoff for the M Parallel IO Modules series. Designed for decentralized control systems, the unit collects low-level process signals and forwards them through the company’s fiber-optic Lightbus network, reducing electromagnetic interference over long cable runs. By converting field data inside the module, it frees the central PLC from separate A/D hardware and shortens scan times across high-channel-count production lines. It also slots onto a DIN rail beside digital modules, giving machine builders a uniform footprint for mixed signal acquisition across plant-wide networks.
Operating from a nominal 24 V DC supply, the module draws only 0.17 A, so multiple stations can share a compact power source without voltage sag. Each analog channel is digitized in 10 µs, and the resulting samples are quantized at 12-bit resolution, a combination that supports precise temperature, pressure, or position feedback while meeting fast servo update cycles. The fiber-optic port transmits data at 2.5 MBaud, balancing noise immunity with bandwidth so upstream controllers receive fresh values before the next control period expires.
The module occupies only 4 analog input positions on the Lightbus and consumes 2 bus addresses, so engineering tools can reserve address space accurately during network planning. After each acquisition group, a telegram lasting 25 µs per 32-bit is issued, allowing deterministic timing for motion or safety tasks that reference the analog feedback. Mounting complies with DIN EN 50022 / 50035, enabling snap-in installation on common 35 mm rails alongside other Beckhoff components. Mechanical dimensions of 166 mm width, 76 mm height, and 68 mm depth keep enclosure layouts predictable while still leaving room for plug-in connectors and the optical transceiver.
