B&R 7CM211.7 Output Module

B&R 7CM211.7 is a module with multiple functions launched by B&R. Although it is mentioned as an output module, it is actually a combination module with both input and output functions. The following is a detailed introduction:

Features and Advantages

Rich functions: It not only has 8 transistor outputs, but also has 8 inputs, which can realize signal input acquisition and output control at the same time, reducing the number of modules used in the system and improving the system integration.

High reliability: It has short-circuit protection function, which can effectively protect the module and connected devices from short-circuit faults, and enhance the stability and reliability of the system.

Flexible counting function: It supports 3 single-channel or 2 dual-channel counters, or 2 incremental encoders, which can be used to measure parameters such as speed and position, and is suitable for a variety of motion control and measurement scenarios.

Technical specifications

Input specifications: 8 inputs, 24V DC power supply, 4mA current, input response time of 4ms, input type is leakage type.

Output specifications: 8 transistor outputs, 24V DC voltage, 0.5A current, with comparator function.

Other specifications: 2 analog inputs can be provided, with a signal range of ±10V/0 - 20mA and 12-bit resolution; 2 analog outputs, with a signal range of ±10V and 12-bit resolution.

Application scenarios

Factory automation: In the production line of the manufacturing industry, it can be used to control the start and stop of the motor, the signal acquisition of the sensor, the switch of the valve, and the display of the indicator light, etc., to achieve automatic control and monitoring of the production process.

Process control: In the chemical, pharmaceutical, food processing and other industries, process parameters can be monitored and controlled, such as adjusting the valve opening and pump speed through output control according to the input signals of sensors such as temperature, pressure, and flow, so as to ensure the stability of the production process and product quality.

Motion control: Using its counting function and input and output characteristics, it can be applied to motion control systems, such as controlling the movement of motors, monitoring the position and speed of moving parts, etc., to achieve precise motion control.
