Overview
Functional Description
The ARM55C-000 provides an interface between the FIO digital output module and external field devices. Its mechanical relays switch the output contacts according to the signals received from the digital output module. Furthermore, the relay contacts provide electrical separation between the control-side signals and field-device circuits.
Each output point supports a maximum load of 1.5 A at 30 VDC. The contact configuration can use either a-contact (normally open) or b-contact (normally closed) operation, depending on the selected configuration.
I/O Configuration and Connections
The board provides 32 dry-contact output points with M3.5 screw terminals. It also uses M4 terminals for the 24 VDC power input. In addition, the specified connection modules include ADV551 with ATD5A for 32-point output and ADV561 for 64-point output configurations.
The listed associated cable models are AKB331 for 32-point connections and AKB337 for 64-point connections. Confirm the connection arrangement and required accessories against the installed system configuration before ordering.
