Functional Description
IC200UEX264 is a 64-point Expansion Card. The Emerson VersaMax Micro 64-point Expansion Card is a state-of-the-art, solid-state, microprocessor-based I/O expansion solution designed specifically for the VersaMax Micro Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) product family. This expansion card significantly enhances the system's capabilities by increasing the number of available connection points, allowing users to interface with a broader range of field devices.
Features
- Expanded I/O Capacity: Allows for the addition of up to 40 discrete 24 V DC rated inputs and 24 discrete 24 V DC rated source outputs. This expansion is vital for complex automation tasks that require multiple inputs and outputs, making it the largest expansion card in its product family.
- Enhanced Processing Power: In addition to its substantial I/O capacity, it can be further expanded by incorporating up to 4 additional expansion cards. This modular design enables users to scale their system as needed, accommodating growing automation demands and more extensive control processes.
- Versatile Input and Output Capabilities: The card is designed to read various discrete signals, including those from limit switches, photocells, push buttons, and pressure switches. Furthermore, it can send control signals to various field devices, such as motor controllers and solenoid valves, facilitating seamless integration into an existing automation environment.
- Temperature Specifications: Designed to operate effectively within a temperature range of 0 to 60 degrees Celsius (32 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit). Maintaining this temperature range is crucial for ensuring reliable performance and longevity of the card.
- Climate Control Recommendations: In environments where higher temperatures are anticipated, it is strongly recommended to install the expansion card within an enclosure equipped with climate control or forced ventilation systems. This precaution will help maintain optimal operating conditions and protect the integrity of the hardware.
