F2-08AD-1

About the F2-08AD-1

You must have at least one external power supply for use with the F2-08AD-1, 8-Channel Analog Current Input Module. It is not required that the same power sources be used for the module supply and the current transmitter supply. Separate power supplies can be used instead.

The F2-08AD-1, 8-Channel Analog Current Input Module contains valuable hardware features.

• The analog inputs are optically isolated from the PLC logic.

• For improved usability and portability, the terminal block is easily removable to ensure the F2-08AD-1, 8-Channel Analog Current Input Module is easily removable without disconnecting wiring.  

• If a DL240, or DL250-1, or DL260 CPU is used, all channels can be read in one scan.

The power budget requirement for the F2-08AD-1, 8-Channel Analog Current Input Module is 110mA (*60mA maximum, 5VDC (supplied by base). The environmental air requirement is no corrosive gases permitted.  The operating temperature 0-60°C (32-140°F). The relative humidity 5–95% (non-condensing).

The F2-08AD-1, 8-Channel Analog Current Input Module is a 8-Channel analog input voltage module. The input range is 0-5 VDC and 0-10 VDC. The number of channels is 8, single ended (one common). The resolution is 12 bit (1 in 4096) unipolar (0–4096) 13 bit (1 in 8192) bipolar (-4095 – +4095). The PLC update rate is 1 channel per scan maximum (DL230 CPU) 8 channels per scan maximum (DL240/250-1/260 CPU).  The input points requirement is 12 binary data bits, 3 channel ID bits, 1 broken transmitter detection bit, 16 point (X) input module.

The F2-08AD-1 can be installed in any slot in a DL230. However, one consideration is that if the module is placed so the input points do not start on a V-memory boundary, the instructions cannot access the data.
