Omron's C500-MD211CN module serves as a DC input/transistor output unit, ideal for applications that require effective control and monitoring. It operates within an input voltage range of 12 to 24 VDC, with permissible variations of +10% and -15%. The module is capable of handling a maximum switching capacity of 0.3 A, with higher capacity figures of 2.4 A per common and up to 4.8 A per unit.
This device also features a maximum leakage current specification of 0.1 mA and limits residual voltage to 1.5 V at most. For protection, the module incorporates two non-user-replaceable fuses, with one allocated to each circuit. External supply power requirements are set conveniently at 80 mA for the same 12 to 24 VDC range, ensuring compatibility with various system configurations.
Response times for switching actions are optimized, with ON and OFF transitions rated at a maximum of 0.2 ms and 0.3 ms, respectively. The input impedance registers at 2.2 Ω while typical input current reaches 10 mA when operating at 24 VDC. The minimum ON voltage stands at 10.2 VDC, while the OFF voltage threshold is capped at 3.0 VDC. Internal current consumption is limited to 260 mA at a maximum of 5 VDC.
Ideal for structured control systems, the C500-MD211CN encompasses 16 points, configured as 8 points per common and distributed across 2 circuits, thereby providing flexibility for various applications.
