Physical Characteristics and Installation

This electronic assembly block weighs approximately 0.68 kg for secure mounting. Its dimensions measure 230 mm x 150 mm x 40 mm for Genius I/O blocks. First, mount the IC660EBD020 on a DIN rail or panel. Then, connect your sensors and actuators to the screw terminals. Finally, attach the Genius LAN cable to the communication port. LED indicators on the front show power, status, and I/O activity.

Input and Output Specifications

The IC660EBD020 provides 8 digital input channels for field sensors. Each input accepts 24V DC nominal signals from switches and proximity sensors. The module also delivers 8 transistor outputs for driving small actuators. Each output supplies up to 0.5 A at 24V DC with short-circuit protection. The response time measures 2 ms for both inputs and outputs. Optocouplers isolate all I/O circuits from the internal communication bus.

Communication and Power Requirements

This assembly block includes a built-in Genius LAN interface for network connectivity. The IC660EBD020 communicates directly with the Genius bus controller. The block requires an external 24V DC power supply for operation. The logic circuits draw 180 mA while field circuits draw 200 mA. Use this block for mixed input/output applications in distributed Genius I/O networks.
