Adapter speeds PLC wiring
A new 16-channel front adapter brings fast, easy, error-free wiring to all commonly used I/O modules for the Siemens S7-300 range of PLCs.
A new 16-channel front adapter, the latest addition to Phoenix Contact's convenient Varioface cabling system for programmable logic controller (PLC) inputs and outputs, means that the system's benefits of fast, easy, error-free wiring, are now extended to cover all commonly used input and output (I/O) modules for the Siemens S7-300 range of PLCs The new FLKM 14-PA-S300 adapter simply pushes into place on the front of the I/O module, and then allows standard plug-in multicore cables to be used to link the module to a DIN-rail mounted interface module
