ABB AX522 Analog Input/Output Module

Description

The ABB AX522 Analog Input/Output Module is a member of the AC500 series, designed for flexible industrial automation signal processing and control. It features 8 analog input (AI) channels and 8 analog output (AO) channels, delivering versatile connectivity for diverse industrial sensors and actuators. The AI channels support multiple signal types, including 0-10V, ±10V, 0/4-20mA, PT100, PT1000, and Ni1000, with a 12-bit resolution for precise signal capture. The AO channels offer output options of ±10V and 0/4-20mA (with 4 dedicated current output channels), also with 12-bit resolution for accurate signal transmission. Powered by 24VDC, it is optimized for standard industrial power environments. Key features include a modular design that enables seamless integration into AC500 series PLC systems, supporting both local and distributed expansion; it can connect to remote or distributed I/O modules via communication interfaces to form scalable automation solutions. It also provides robust communication compatibility with protocols such as PROFINET IO, PROFIBUS DP, and CANopen. Additionally, select channels can be independently configured as input or output, allowing customization to meet specific application requirements across process control, manufacturing, and monitoring systems.
