Output Channels and Load Conditions
The F3322 provides 16 digital output channels for switching connected field loads. Each channel supports resistive or inductive loads up to 500 mA, with a maximum load rating of 12 W. Lamp connections are also supported up to 12 W. Check both the current and power requirements of each load before connecting it to the module.
The module includes safety isolation between the relevant circuits. Its short-circuit protection and current-limiting function provide additional output protection. The specified current limiter response value is greater than 550 mA; this value should not be treated as the normal operating current rating.
Power Supply and Rack Loading
The module requires 5 V DC operating power and draws additional current from the 24 V DC supply to operate the loads. Therefore, rack power calculations must account for both the module’s operating current and the connected load current.
Observe the following restrictions when configuring an I/O subrack:
- Use no more than 10 output modules at nominal load in one I/O subrack.
- Do not switch on more than half of the possible total output load simultaneously. For 16 outputs rated at 0.5 A each, the stated limit is 8 A.
- The standard I/O rack fuse rating is 4 A, slow-blow.
These limits apply to the stated rack configuration. Check the actual load distribution and rack protection arrangement before commissioning.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How many output channels does the HIMA F3322 provide?
A: The F3322 provides 16 digital output channels. Each channel supports resistive or inductive loads up to 500 mA, subject to the 12 W load rating and the specified rack loading limits.
Q: What happens if the L- supply is interrupted?
A: The supplied technical data specifies that no output signal is present when the L- supply is interrupted. Verify the field circuit and supply arrangement against the applicable system documentation before commissioning.
Q: Can multiple F3322 modules operate at nominal load in the same I/O subrack?
A: Yes, but the stated limit is 10 output modules at nominal load per I/O subrack. In addition, the simultaneously switched output load must not exceed 8 A under the specified 16-channel, 0.5 A-per-channel calculation, and the standard rack fuse is rated at 4 A slow-blow.
