AI and AO Modules (ROC800-Series)
 |
The need for fuses has been eliminated on the Input/Output (I/O) modules through the extensive use of current-limiting, short-circuit protection, and surge protection techniques. This results in less maintenance for remote locations. The I/O modules are self-resetting after a fault clears.
These modules can be installed in any module slot. Modules can easily be installed or removed from the module slots at any time; modules are held in place by two captive screws. Modules are hot-swappable, meaning the module can be removed and another module, of the same kind, can be installed under power. The modules are hot-pluggable, meaning
they may be installed directly into unused module slots under power. The modules are also selfidentifying via ROCLINK™ 800 Configuration Software.
All modules have removable terminal blocks for convenient wiring and servicing. The terminal blocks can accommodate a wide range of wire gauges (12 AWG or smaller).
Each module provides 2500 volts dc of isolation from other modules and the backplane including power and signal isolation.
