Product Summary
The Flexem FR-D0808P is a compact digital mixed module that combines eight bidirectional inputs with eight PNP outputs. Engineers use this device to control actuators while reading sensor signals. Its slim 18mm width saves valuable space inside control cabinets. The module operates reliably on a standard 24VDC industrial power supply. This unit weighs only 65 grams for easy mounting on a DIN rail.
Theme Option A: Product Procurement & Buyer Guide
Procurement managers need a module that offers both flexibility and reliability. The FR-D0808P provides eight input channels that accept NPN or PNP signals. This bidirectional capability simplifies your inventory management significantly. You no longer need separate modules for different sensor types. The inputs handle a voltage range from 0 to 28.8VDC. Each input channel draws a rated current of just 7mA. This low current draw reduces overall system power consumption effectively.
The output section features eight PNP sourcing channels for driving loads. Each output channel delivers a rated current of 0.5 amps. The module groups outputs with a total current limit per group. You must calculate your load distribution carefully for safety. The outputs operate within a voltage range of 19.2 to 28.8VDC. This wide range ensures stable operation even with fluctuating supplies. Application engineers appreciate this robust electrical design for harsh environments.
Choosing the correct output type is critical for your system architecture. The FR-D0808P uses PNP outputs which source current to the load. This contrasts with the FR-D0808N model which uses NPN sinking outputs. You must match the output type to your connected device requirements. Sourcing outputs are common in European and North American control systems. This module integrates seamlessly with most modern programmable logic controllers.
The compact dimensions measure 111 millimeters in height and 18 millimeters in width. The depth is only 76 millimeters for tight panel spaces. This small footprint allows you to maximize channel density in cabinets. You can mount multiple units side by side without spacing issues. The lightweight construction at 65 grams reduces stress on the DIN rail. These physical attributes make the module ideal for distributed control architectures.
Theme Option B: Step-by-Step User & Installation Guide
Begin the installation by mounting the FR-D0808P onto a standard 35mm DIN rail. Ensure the rail is securely fastened inside your control cabinet. Snap the module onto the rail until you hear a click. This mechanical lock prevents accidental dislodging during operation. Allow adequate airflow around the module for proper cooling.
Wire the power supply connections first before connecting any signals. Connect the 24VDC positive wire to the designated input terminal. Connect the 0VDC common wire to the corresponding negative terminal. Verify the supply voltage is within the 19.2 to 28.8VDC range. Use a multimeter to confirm stable voltage at the module terminals. Never apply voltage exceeding 28.8VDC to avoid permanent damage.
Connect your field sensors to the eight input channels on the module. Each input accepts both NPN and NPN wiring configurations. Wire the sensor signal wire to the appropriate input terminal. Connect the sensor common wire to the module’s common terminal. The module automatically detects the sensor type for you. This plug-and-play feature reduces commissioning time significantly.
Wire your actuator loads to the eight PNP output channels carefully. Connect the load positive wire to the output terminal. Connect the load negative wire to the 0VDC common rail. Each output can handle a maximum current of 0.5 amps. Use a fuse or circuit breaker to protect each output channel. Verify the total group current does not exceed the specified limit.
