Function

The VBA-4E-KE1 AS-Interface coupling module is a cabinet module with 4 inputs. The housing, only 22.5 mm in width and 48.5 mm in height, takes up little place in the switch cabinet. The module is mounted by snapping onto the 35 mm DIN rail in accordance with EN 50022.

Plug-in terminals are used for connection. 4-way terminal blocks (black) are used for the inputs. The AS-Interface is connected via a double terminal block (yellow).

The supply of the inputs and the connected sensors occurs internally via the module (from AS-Interface). An LED on the front control plate is used to display the current switching state for each input.
