Nowadays when equipment is designed many scenarios need to be considered. Some of which are user and maintenance friendly, limited budgets, safety, availibility, and simplicity in design and usage.

These demands are more than satisfied by the different WAGO interface modules in their various designs, such as pluggable function and interface modules, narrow relay and optocoupler modules and modern, high efficiency switched-mode power supply units.

Interface module advantages:

• The components are pluggable - reducing installation time
• Exchange or adjust components easily and trouble-free
• Reduce costs and compact design with smaller optocouplers and relay modules
• Decrease error rates by exchanging modules with standardized interfaces

Examples:

A/D Interface Modules

• LED status indication for BUS and HOLD signals
• DIN-rail-mounted enclosure acc. to EN 50022
• 14-pole flat cable connector acc. to DIN 41651

A/D converters are used for the conversion of standard analogue signals into digital signals, allowing digital computers or programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to process analogue signals using the digital inputs. Any number of A/D converters can be connected either to the digital BUS interface of the computer or to the digital inputs of the PLC. Specific converters can be individually selected with BUS and HOLD signals for data reception. The BUS input is used to sellect one of the A/D converters which are connected in parallel. Synchronous data reception is possible via HOLD signal controlling. Without HOLD signal controlling, the A/D converter is in the free-running mode.

EtherNet Connection Module with CAGE-CLAM
