This analog output module generates 0/4 … 20 mA output currents or 6 … 18 V output voltages for the field. Output ranges can be configured via WAGO‐I/O‐CHECK or GSD files. The module has two short circuit-proof output channels and enables direct connection of two 2-wire actuators to AO 1 and ground or AO2 and ground. Signals are output via AO 1 or AO 2. In addition, the sense lines from 4-wire actuators can be connected to -Sense AO1 and +Sense AO1 or -Sense AO2 and +Sense AO2. Both output channels have a common ground potential. The output signal is electrically isolated and transmitted with a resolution of 16 bits. Both internal system and field side supply power the module. The device is ideal for operation in extreme environments thanks to: An extended temperature range Greater immunity to impulse voltages and electromagnetic interference Higher vibration and shock resistance
