This product is tested to meet Council Directive 73/23/EEC Low Voltage, since it operates with inputs under 75
VDC and 50VAC rms. It applies the safety requirements of EN 61131-2 Programmable Controllers, Part 2 –
Equipment Requirements and Tests. For specific information required by EN 61131-2, see the appropriate
sections in this publication.
Power Requirements Power Requirements Power Requirements Power Requirements Power Requirements
The module receives power through the PLC backplane from the +5VDC power supply. The maximum current
drawn for the module is 670mA.

CAUTION: CAUTION: CAUTION: CAUTION: CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge can damage integrated circuits or semiconductors if you
touch module bus connector pins. Substitution of components may impair suitability for Class 1, Division 2.
To prevent electrostatic discharge, follow these guidelines when you handle the module:
•
Touch a grounded object to discharge static potential.
•
Wear an approved wrist strap grounding device.
•
Do not touch the backplane connector or connector pins.
•
Do not touch circuit components inside the module.
•
If available, use a static-safe work station.
•
When it is not in use, keep the module in its static-shield box.
