Function
The VAA-4E-G2-ZA is an AS-Interface coupling module with 4 inputs. Mechanical contacts (e. g. push buttons) and 2- and 3-wire sensors can be connected to the inputs.
The IP67 flat module features an integrated addressing jack and is ideal for applications in the field.
Sensors are connected via M12 x 1 quick disconnects. The current switching state of each channel is indicated by an LED. An additional LED monitors the AS-Interface communication and indicates when the module has an address of zero.
The input is monitored for short circuits. In a failure case, the module disconnects from the AS-Interface and an error is indicated.
The U-G3FF mounting base is used as a standard connection to the AS-Interface. The flat cables can be installed in two orientation within the base. This means, for example, that 90° curves can be laid with very tight radii (variable flat cable guide). If input and output modules are used in an application, the flat cable for the external power supply can be placed in the base of the module, since the module does not access this line. The advantage is that both flat cables can be placed in parallel without destroying the module due to a wrong connection.
Note:
The mounting base for the module is sold separately.
