Function

The VAA-2EA-G2-ZA/EA2 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 electronic outputs, which can be loaded to 24 V DC and 1 A per output.

The IP67 flat module features an integrated addressing jack and is ideal for applications in the field.

Connection to sensors/actuators is provided via M12 x 1 screw connections. The current switching state of each channel is indicated by an LED located on the module's top side. Similarly, an LED is provided to monitor the AS-Interface communication and to indicate that the module has the address 0. If an AS-Interface communication error occurs, the outputs are de-energised.

The input circuit is monitored for short circuits. LEDs are also provided to indicate ASInterface voltage and external power supply.

The U-G3FF mounting base is normally used for the connection of the AS-Interface flat cable and the external 24 V DC power supply. The specially designed base enables the user to connect flat cables from both sides.This means, for example, that 90° curves can be laid with very tight radii (variable flat cable guide).

Note:

The mounting base for the module is sold separately.
