II. Technical Parameters

(I) Output Signal Characteristics

Output type and range: As a current source analog output module, it mainly outputs 4-20mA analog current signals. This standard signal range is widely used in the field of industrial control and can achieve good adaptation with many industrial equipment. By outputting current signals within this range, the actions of actuators can be precisely controlled, such as the opening of control valves and the speed of motors, meeting the needs for precise control of equipment in different industrial scenarios.


Output accuracy: It has extremely high output accuracy, usually up to ±0.1%, ensuring that the output analog signal highly matches the instructions issued by the controller, and effectively reducing control errors caused by signal deviation. In industrial production processes with strict requirements on control accuracy, such as flow control in chemical reaction processes and batching control in the pharmaceutical industry, this high-precision output characteristic can ensure the stability of the production process and the consistency of product quality.

(II) Electrical Parameters

Power supply requirements: It supports 24/48V DC power input and can adapt to the power environment of various industrial sites. The module integrates an efficient power management circuit, which can ensure a stable working state even when the input power voltage fluctuates to a certain extent, providing a guarantee for the stability of the output signal. At the same time, this power input range also conforms to the common power configuration standards in industrial automation systems, facilitating integration with other equipment.


Load capacity: It has strong load driving capacity and can directly drive various loads, such as solenoid valves, small relays, analog actuators, etc. Its output circuit design fully considers the load characteristics, which can meet the working needs of the load while ensuring the reliability and stability of its own work, effectively avoiding output abnormalities or module damage caused by excessive load.

(III) Physical Characteristics

Overall dimensions: Adopting a compact modular design, the overall size is small, which is convenient for installation in various control cabinets. Its specific size design fully considers the actual installation space requirements of industrial sites, and can achieve efficient layout in limited space, providing convenience for system integration. For example, in the control cabinet of an automated production line with tight space, the compact design of IC660TBA026M can effectively save space without affecting its function.


Installation methods: It provides a variety of convenient installation methods, commonly including rail mounting and screw fixing installation. The rail mounting method uses a standard DIN rail, and the module is quickly and firmly installed on the rail through clips. The installation and disassembly process is simple and fast, facilitating the replacement of modules during system maintenance or upgrade. Screw fixing installation is suitable for occasions with high requirements for installation stability. Through standard mounting holes, screws are used to fix the module on the mounting plate of the control cabinet, ensuring that the module can maintain stable operation in the complex vibration environment of industrial sites.

(IV) Environmental Adaptability

Operating temperature range: The operating temperature range is 0°C - 60°C, which can adapt to the temperature environment of most industrial sites. Whether near high-temperature industrial furnaces or in relatively low-temperature cold storage environments, the module can work stably to ensure that the analog signal output is not affected by temperature changes. In the non-working state, the storage temperature range is wider, ranging from -40°C to 85°C, which enables the equipment to effectively withstand extreme temperatures during long-term idle or transportation, ensuring that the equipment performance is not damaged and extending the service life of the equipment.


Anti-interference ability: The design fully considers the complex electromagnetic environment of industrial sites. Through measures such as optimizing circuit layout and using shielding materials, it has excellent electromagnetic interference (EMI) resistance. It can effectively suppress the impact of external electromagnetic interference on analog signal output, ensure the accuracy and stability of the output signal, and guarantee the reliable operation of industrial automation control systems in strong electromagnetic interference environments. For example, in industrial environments with strong electromagnetic interference generated by large motors and high-frequency equipment, IC660TBA026M can still stably output accurate analog signals, providing reliable data support for the control system.

III. Functional Characteristics

(I) High-Precision Analog Signal Output

Precise control of actuators: With its high-precision 4-20mA analog current signal output capability, it can precisely control the actions of various actuators. In automated production lines, the output signal can be used to precisely adjust the speed of the motor to achieve precise control of the material conveying speed; in chemical production, it can accurately control the opening of the control valve to adjust the flow of fluid in the pipeline, ensuring that the production process runs stably according to preset process parameters, effectively improving production efficiency and product quality.


Strong signal stability: The module uses advanced signal processing technology and high-precision electronic components, which can effectively reduce signal fluctuations and noise interference, and ensure the stability of the output analog signal. During long-term continuous work, the stability of the output signal can still be reliably guaranteed, providing continuous and accurate control signals for industrial control systems, and avoiding equipment misoperation or production failures caused by unstable signals.

(II) Flexible System Integration Capability

Compatibility with multiple controllers: It can be well compatible with GE Fanuc Genius series and other mainstream brand controllers, and can be easily connected to different types of industrial automation control systems.
