Electrical Connection

The output module DO573 can be connected to the following devices via the I/O-Bus connector:

  • S500 Bus Modules (e. g. CI592-CS31, CI501-PNIO, CI541-DP, CI581-CN)
  • AC500 CPUs (PM5xx)
  • other AC500 I/O Modules

Note

The DO573 must not be used as a remote expansion module at DC505-FBP and CI590-CS31-HA Bus Modules.

Note

Mounting, disassembling and electrical connection for the I/O Modules are described in detail in the S500 System Data S500 System Data, Overview.

The electrical connection is carried out by using a removable 9-pole and 11-pole Terminal Block. These terminal blocks differ in their connection system (spring terminals or screw-type terminals, cable mounting from the front or from the side). For more information, refer to the chapter Terminal Blocks for S500-eCo I/O Modules TA563-TA565 Terminal Blocks for AC500-eCo I/O Modules and AC500-eCo \ CPUs. The terminal blocks are not included in the module’s scope of delivery and must be ordered separately.

The following block diagram shows the internal construction of the digital outputs:

The assignment of the terminals:

Terminal Signal Meaning
1 NO0 Normally-open contact of the output NO0
2 NO1 Normally-open contact of the output NO1
3 NO2 Normally-open contact of the output NO2
4 NO3 Normally-open contact of the output NO3
5 NO4 Normally-open contact of the output NO4
6 NO5 Normally-open contact of the output NO5
7 NO6 Normally-open contact of the output NO6
8 NO7 Normally-open contact of the output NO7
9 R0..7 Output common for signals NO0 to NO7
10 NO8 Normally-open contact of the output NO8
11 NO9 Normally-open contact of the output NO9
12 NO10 Normally-open contact of the output NO10
13 NO11 Normally-open contact of the output NO11
14 NO12 Normally-open contact of the output NO12
15 NO13 Normally-open contact of the output NO13
16 NO14 Normally-open contact of the output NO14
17 NO15 Normally-open contact of the output NO15
18 R8..15 Output common for signals NO8 to NO15
19 L+ Process voltage L+ (24 V DC)
20 M Process voltage M (0 V DC)

The internal power supply voltage for the module’s circuitry is carried out via the I/O-Bus (provided by a Bus Module or a CPU). Thus, the current consumption from 24 V DC power supply at the terminals L+/UP and M/ZP of the CPU/Bus Module increases by 5 mA per DO573.

The external power supply connection is carried out via the L+ (+24 V DC) and the M (0 V DC) terminals. The M terminal is electrically interconnected to the M/ZP terminal of the CPU/Bus Module.

Warning

:strong:Danger of life through electric shock!

The terminals of the module can carry 240 V voltage.

Make sure that all voltage sources (supply and process voltage) are switched off before you are beginning with operations at the system.

For screw-type terminals only:

Warning

:strong:Danger of life through electric shock!

The IP 20 protection degree is provided only if all terminal screws are tightened.

Tighten all screws of unused load terminals of relay outputs if voltages > 24 V are connected to the relay group.

Attention

:strong:Risk of damaging the PLC modules!

The PLC modules can be damaged by overload.

Make sure that the total current of each output common terminal (R0..7 and R8..15) does not exceed 10 A.

Attention

:strong:Risk of damaging the PLC modules!

The PLC modules can be damaged by overvoltages and short circuits.

Make sure that all voltage sources (supply and process voltage) are switched off before you are beginning with operations at the system.

Attention

:strong:Risk of damaging the PLC modules!

The PLC modules must not be removed when the plant is powered on.

Make sure that all voltage sources (supply and process voltage) are switched off before you are

  • connecting or disconnecting any signal or terminal block
  • removing or replacing a module.

The module provides several diagnosis functions (see chapter Diagnosis Digital Output Module DO573).

The outputs are not protected against short circuit and overload.

  • Never short circuit or overload the outputs.
  • Never connect inductive loads without an external suppression against voltage peaks due to inductive kickback.
  • Never connect voltages > 240 V. All outputs must be supplied from the same phase.
  • Never connect total currents > 10 A per group (overload of common terminals R0…7 and R8…15)
  • Use an external 5 A fast protection fuse for the outputs.

The meaning of the LEDs is described in the Displays Digital Output Module DO572.
