B&R X20AT4222 8-Channel Digital I/O Module – Profinet-Enabled PLC Interface for Industrial Control Systems | IP67-Rated

Description

The B&R X20AT4222 is an 8-channel digital I/O module, a Profinet-enabled PLC interface engineered for industrial control systems, with an IP67 rating for reliable operation in harsh industrial environments. As a modular extension component, it supports Profinet bus communication, with a maximum bus rate of 100Mbps and a maximum station-to-station transmission distance of 100 meters, enabling seamless integration into high-speed industrial networks. The module features 8 digital channels, with configurable signal types including PNP for inputs and source-type for outputs; input channels have a typical input current of 3mA, while output channels offer a 500mA per-channel driving capacity. It incorporates optocoupler isolation with a 500V isolation voltage, ensuring robust protection against electrical interference and enhancing signal stability. Designed for distributed industrial setups, it can be paired with compatible Profinet bus couplers that support up to 32 connected I/O modules, allowing flexible system expansion. Ideal for applications requiring rugged, high-performance digital signal handling, this module supports real-time data exchange between field devices and central PLCs, suitable for automated production lines, material handling systems, and other industrial control scenarios.
