Function

The VBA-2E2A-G2-ZEJ/XE2J is an AS-Interface coupling module with 2 inputs and 2 outputs. Mechanical contacts and 2- and 3-wire sensors can be connected to the inputs. The outputs are powered via the internal sensor supply.

The IP67 flat module is ideal for applications in the field. An addressing jack is integrated in the module. Connection to the sensors/actuators is provided via M12 x 1 screw connections.

An LED is provided for each channel, on the top of the module, to indicate the current switching status. Similarly, an LED is provided to monitor the AS-Interface communication and to indicate that the module has the address 0. One LED is also provided to indicate the AS-Interface voltage.

The U-G3FF mounting base is normally used for the connection of the AS-Interface flat cable. The specially designed base enables the user to connect flat cable from both sides.

The device is equipped with communication monitoring, which switches off power to the inputs if no communication has taken place for longer than 40 ms.

An overloading of the internal power supply or of the outputs is signalled to the AS-interface master via the "Peripheral fault" function. Communication via the AS-Interface remains intact.

Note:

The mounting base for the module is sold separately.
