Description
The Part Number 777518-520 refers to a specific model of FieldPoint, identified as FP-PWM-520. This model is an 8-Channel PWM Output Module, designed for applications requiring pulse-width modulation output but is noted as “Not for New Design”, suggesting it may be facing obsolescence or has been superseded by newer models.
This module boasts 8 pulse-width modulation sourcing output channels, allowing for a versatile range of applications in various fields of automation and control systems. The output period configuration is exceptionally flexible, ranging from 1 millisecond to 65535 milliseconds, adjustable in 1-millisecond increments, providing precise control over the PWM signals.
Regarding power specifications, the output voltage can be either 5 VDC or 10-30 VDC, dependent on the user-provided power supply, which offers adaptability to different power requirements for various applications. The module is designed to be installed on an FP-TB-x (FieldPoint terminal base), ensuring a secure and reliable connection to the rest of the FieldPoint system.
One of the notable features of this module is its optical isolation from the remaining FieldPoint bank, enhancing the safety and integrity of the signals. Moreover, it comes equipped with short-circuit protection, using special gear to safeguard the module and connected devices against potential damage caused by short circuits.
The duty cycle range of this module is fully adjustable from 0% to 100%, which can be independently set for each channel, providing a high degree of control over the PWM outputs. It supports a maximum current per output of up to 1 A, catering to a wide range of power needs for connected devices.
Finally, the terminals of the FP-PWM-520 include 8 PWM output terminals, 16 common terminals (COM), and 8 power supply terminals (Vsup), ensuring comprehensive connectivity options for various configurations and applications within industrial settings.
