IFM AL5021

The IO-Link input/output module enables the flexible wiring of digital input and output signals using cut-to-size wires. It supports easy installation in panels, button housings, or directly along the cable path. The housing is constructed to withstand challenging environments, achieving a high protection rating of IP67, making it suitable for diverse industrial applications.

Equipped with a reliable M12 connector, this module connects seamlessly to IO-Link masters. The operational specifications include an operating voltage range of 18...30 V DC and a current consumption between 50 and 1050 mA. With a total of 16 digital inputs and 16 digital outputs, both are parameterizable to accommodate various applications. The input circuit operates on a PNP basis, while the outputs provide a maximum current load of 1 A, ensuring short-circuit protection for reliable performance.

This device is compliant with the SDCI standard IEC 61131-9, featuring a communication interface that operates at a transmission type of COM3 (230.4 kBaud) and supports DeviceID identification and diagnosis. The operating conditions are well-suited for environments with ambient temperatures ranging from -25°C to 60°C and can handle up to 90% relative humidity.

For installation, the module includes a 2 m long electrical connection cable made of halogen-free PUR material, featuring gold-plated contacts and a secure M12 connector. The designation code for this module is IOL MOD 16xDX A 001 000 IP67, which...
