With the current level of automation, there are more and more sensors monitoring the production process. This increases the number of signals to be combined and structured. Given the restricted space in the panel, this can become a real challenge. Our application-specific initiator/actuator terminal blocks (AIO) are specially designed for the signal wiring requirements posed by automation now and into the future. Benefit from tailored, highly compact solutions for the structured wiring of initiator and actuator signals with the input and output modules of a programmable logic controller (PLC).
Each conductor – positive, negative, signal or PE – has its own colour. Incorrect wiring is prevented, while installation and maintenance are made more efficient.
Whether it’s for three- or four-conductor initiators or actuators with and without a protective earth connection, we’ve got the perfect terminal block in our range.
Both rigid conductors and conductors with wire-end ferrules can be reliably connected directly and without the need for any tools. For maximum contact security in a minimum amount of time.
The different potentials can be tested at every contact point. Testing work in the panel is significantly speed up
With our application products, you can achieve effective and safe potential distribution while looping the signals to the IO system. Benefit from increased wiring density with more potentials on a single modular terminal block. This not only saves space, but also reduces the time required to assemble the terminal block. Our application products for signal wiring (AIO) are available in three designs. Depending on the design, you can connect 3- or 4-wire sensors or actuators. The large number of variants, e.g. with built-in PE function, allows maximum flexibility when it comes to designing the signal feed.
