Description

The ANTARES 8 Digital In NAMUR Remote I/O Module is suitable for capturing 8 intrinsically safe binary signals in hazardous areas. NAMUR sensors, optocouplers, wired and unwired mechanical contacts or other actuating elements can be connected with intrinsic safety. All of the I/O module’s transmission channels are conductively connected to each other. The ANTARES 8DI-N Remote I/O Module is operated by and supplied with power by the ANTARES Rail Control Unit (RCU). A bus rail is not necessary. The hot-swap capability allows the electronic unit to be replaced without disconnecting from voltage even in an explosive atmosphere. Parameters can be set for each channel. Open circuit/short circuit monitoring can be programmed for each channel. See the system description for installation instructions.
