3.2.10 3 Optocoupler Outputs
 
The optocoupler outputs have one common potential (GND) for the output group that is separated 
from the common potential of the input group. 
 
Connection method:
4-pin plug-in terminal block
Cable:
Shielded, max. 50 m
Number of outputs:
3
Output signal:
External supply required
Output current:
Max. 30 mA
Output voltage:
Max. switching voltage: 28 VDC
Electrical isolation:
Yes; a common minus potential for the 
group of 3 outputs 
 
 
Example: relay control connection 
 
When output 1 is active (true), the relay switches. 
For protection of the output circuit, relays with free-
wheel diode must be provided. 
 
 
Example: voltage output connection 
 
When output 1 is active (true), the output voltage 
changes from 24 /12 VDC into < 3 VDC. A load 
resistance of 2.2 /1 kohms must be provided.
