Digital output unit that is available in many variations, from high-speed types that enable high-speed synchronization control to general-purpose types
■ Features · Can be mounted on an EtherCAT coupler to enable high-speed I/O refreshing · Enables I/O refreshing synchronized with the controller control period (synchronous refresh) · Using this unit in combination with an NX Series CPU Unit or EtherCAT Coupler Unit, an NX unit that uses a time stamping input method, and an NX unit that uses a time-specific output method enables highly precise I/O control that does not depend on the controller's control period · The use of a removable terminal block improves system maintainability · The Push-In Plus terminal block (screwless clamp terminal block) and connector type (MIL connector / Fujitsu connector) greatly reduce the time required for wiring work · A unit width of only 12 mm realizes space saving (connector type 30 mm) · 2-, 4-, 8-, 16- and 32-output-contact types are available, enabling the I/O configuration that best suits your equipment · Connect to the CJ Series using the EtherNet/IP coupler
Adds a Safety CPU Unit and Safety I/O Unit to an EtherCAT coupler to enable unified safety control
■ Features · EN ISO 13849-1 (PLe / Safety Category 4), IEC 61508 (SIL3) certified · Incorporating the Safety over EtherCAT (FSoE)* protocol enables both standard control and safety control on the same EtherCAT · There are 2 types of Safety Input Unit: a 4-point type and an 8-point type, and 2 types of Safety Output Unit, a 2-point type and a 4-point type · Safety units can be freely combined and placed with standard units
*The open protocol Safety over EtherCAT (abbreviated as FSoE; "FailSafe over EtherCAT") defines a safety-related communication layer for EtherCAT. Complies with the requirements of IEC 61508 (SIL3), enabling communication of safety data and standard data on the same communication system without communication speed or cycle time restrictions.
