Function: VAA-4A-G12-EA2L
The VAA-4A-G12-EA2L is an AS-Interface trigger module with 4 outputs. The outputs are electronic outputs which can be energized with max. 24 V DC and 2 A per output.
The solid housing permits fast mounting without tools, as well as easy removal without tools. The stainless steel shell and the cast housing ensure durability and a high type of protection.
The connection to the AS-Interface cable and to the external power supply is achieved via penetration technology in the integrated flat cable. The insert for the flat cables can be turned in 2 orientations.
All connections to the outputs are implemented via metal inserts for high stability. The connection to the actuators is achieved via an M12 x 1 circular connector with SPEEDCON quick locking option.
The supply of the outputs and the connected actuators is achieved via an external current source (AUX).
To indicate the current switching state, there is a LED for each channel fitted onto the top of the module. The outputs are protected against overload and short circuit, an output overload is indicated via one LED per channel.
A LED is available to indicate the AS-Interface voltage and that the module has an address 0. Another LED indicates errors in the AS-Interface communication, as well as periphery faults. A separate LED indicates the external power supply (AUX).
This module can be mounted in any position with 3 screws, or snapped onto the DIN rail, using the stainless steel holder.
An output overload is reported to the AS-Interface master via the function "periphery fault". The communication with the AS-Interface remains intact.
