Product Procurement & Buyer Guide
Core Specifications for Your Application
This controller operates on a 24VDC power supply. It consumes a maximum of 27 Watts for efficient energy use. The built-in supply delivers 400 mA at 5VDC and 350 mA at 24VDC.
Input and Output Configuration Details
The module includes ten standard 24VDC inputs for general sensing. It also features four fast 24VDC inputs for high-speed counting applications. For outputs, it provides five relay and four 24VDC FET channels. A single high-speed 24VDC FET output supports position monitoring tasks.

Communication and Connectivity Options
This PLC uses an 8-pin mini-DIN serial port for programming. It supports DF1, DH-485, ASCII, and MODBUS protocols seamlessly. You can connect it directly to SCADA and HMI visualization systems. This allows for easy hardware configuration and online edits.
Mechanical and Environmental Tolerances
The unit measures 90 mm in height and 160 mm in width. Its depth is 87 mm for a compact panel footprint. It operates reliably in temperatures from 0 to 55 degrees Celsius. You can store it safely in environments from -40 to 85 degrees Celsius.
Mounting and Installation Requirements

This controller supports either DIN rail or direct panel mounting. Always install it inside an industrial enclosure for protection. Keep it away from load lines and AC motor drives. This reduces the effects of electrical interference and environmental exposure.

Output Circuit Type and Relay Ratings
The output circuit type is both relay and FET for versatile use. Relay contacts handle 24-125VDC and 120-240VAC loads effectively. Each relay supports a minimum load current of 10 mA. The mechanical cycles rating reaches 20,000,000 for long service life.
Power Supply and Inrush Current Handling
The power supply usage for this module is 27 Watts total. It handles an inrush current of 15 Amps for 20 milliseconds. This robust design ensures stable startup in demanding industrial environments. The heat dissipation is 17 Watts during normal operation.
Input Circuit Type and Common Current
The input circuit type is 24 VDC sink or source for flexibility. This module has no sensor power output for external devices. The common current per group is 7.5 Amps for output groups. This ensures reliable power distribution across connected loads.
Operating Frequency for High-Speed Tasks
The operating frequency ranges from 0 to 20 kilohertz for fast inputs. This supports precise counting, totalizing, and position monitoring tasks. The high-speed output matches this frequency for synchronized control loops. This makes the controller ideal for micro automation requirements.
