For safety-related applications, these high IP-rated block I/O modules combine safety and general-purpose I/O for Profisafe (Profinet) and CIP-Safety (EtherNet/IP) applications. The devices offer two dedicated safety input ports for connecting safety sensors, such as light curtains or emergency stop buttons. Two additional safety channels can be used as inputs or outputs. The general-purpose (nonsafety-related) side includes four configurable discrete inputs/outputs capable of switching up to two amps when used as outputs. Two IO-Link master ports also are available, which offer an additional 32 points of configurable discrete I/O when used with Turck IO-Link hubs.
