The Kuhnke FIO relay module from Kendrion has 8 relays with separated contacts. The relay contact is available for voltages up to 24 V AC or DC and can be used universally for switching devices requiring mains power. The relay output module is equipped with floating contacts and is thus additional to applications in machine and tool building very well suited for use in the building and control technology. The common 24 V voltage supply of the relay is carried out separately, so that they can be integrated into an emergency stop circuit. Up to 5 amps resistive or 2 amps inductive load are switchable per output. The signal state of the EtherCAT terminals and each of the relays is indicated by LEDs, so that a local diagnosis can be performed quickly, e.g. during installation startup and operation of the machinery.
