Phoenix Contact's ILB PB 24 DI8 DIO8 inline block I/O module provides all the flexibility of a modular I/O system.

Phoenix Contact's ILB PB 24 DI8 DIO8 inline block I/O module provides all the flexibility of a modular I/O system.

The module adapts to applications of any specification with eight fixed inputs and eight freely assignable inputs/outputs.

The function of each I/O channel in the Profibus network is assigned simply by connecting an actuator or sensor.

No parameters need to be set.

The inline block I/O system also interfaces with the commonly used fieldbus systems Interbus, CANopen and DeviceNet.

The connection terminals are pluggable and can be quickly removed without the need to release the wiring when installing and maintaining the unit.

The sensors and actuators are connected using the two or three-wire connection method; no additional terminal levels are required.

The connections have been colour-coded for quick and easy installation.

This makes the station easy to understand, and wiring errors are avoided.

Due to their flat design with a height of just 55mm, the modules are well suited to be used in particularly small terminal boxes.

The uninterrupted communication between the inline block I/O modules and the modular Inline system means that the user has access to the entire signal range in one single I/O system.
