Product Description:

The Beckhoff M2400 is a high-performance, adaptable parallel I/O module from the M series that processes signals from industrial automation.

The module has a strong and small design structure of 270 mm x 76 mm x 68 mm, which unites digital and analog processing capabilities in a single device and suits multiple control operations. The analog output module delivers four voltage or current signals ranging from ±10 V and 0 to 20 mA. This unit has 12-bit resolution and its error linearity conforms to ±1 Least Significant Bit (LSB) standards, which brings accurate analog control capabilities to actuators and similar analog-driven equipment. A full-range transition from -10 V to +10 V generates an analog output with 10 μs rise time for dynamic control systems. Users can monitor the module's 16 configurable I/O channels through their LED indicators to assess their status easily. The M2400 digital device requires an input voltage of LOWER 0-8 V or HIGHER 15-24 V while detecting its decision in 0.7 ms through the RC network, along with 6.8 ms through the input latch stage.

The module integrates digital filters on its input channels, which reject signal noise at 10 mA operating voltage using 24 V DC power. The module contains outputs at 24 V DC that limit each channel to 500 mA while maintaining safety during short circuits. Data transfer at 2.5 MBaud speed occurs through the fiber optic I/O system, which also offers noise protection. The 32-bit word data transmission duration remains within 25 microseconds, which enables real-time processing speed. This device functions using a power supply of 24 V DC (±10%) and delivers reliable control for sophisticated systems through its space-efficient design.
