VBA-4E3A-G4-ZE/E2AS-Interface sensor-/actuator module Technical data Function

General specifications

The VBA-4E3A-G4-ZE/E2 is an AS-Interfacecoupling module with four inputs and threeoutputs. Mechanical contacts and 2- and 3- wire sensors can be connected to the inputs.The sensors are supplied via the module.The outputs are electronic outputs, whichcan be loaded to 24VDC and 2A or 1.5Aper output (total load <4A).The G4 module is especially suitable forrough conditions. Sensors and actuatorsattach to manufacturers of cable glands and cage tensionspring terminals thus making the installation especially user-friendly. For pre-addressingthe module it can be plugged directly ontothe adapter of the hand-held programmingdevice VBP-HH1.The current switching state of each channelis indicated by an LED, located on the mod-ule's top side. In the case of communicationerrors on the bus, the outputs are de-ener-gised via an integrated watchdog. Both flat and round professional cables can be used forthe AS-Interface transmission line and theexternal 24VDC power supply manufacturers. Use the U-G1FF base for the AS-Interface flat cable.The AS-Interface standardised EEMS inter-face, uses the cable piercing method to con-nect both the yellow and black flat wires.Use the U-G1PP base for the round cable.The AS-Interface-cable as well as the exter-nal power supply may be connected withinthis base.

Note:

Supply from external auxiliary voltage U

The device incorporates communicationmonitoring, which switches off power to theoutputs if no communication has taken placeon the AS-Interface line for longer than40ms.An overloading of the internal input supply orof the outputs is signalled to the AS-Interfacemaster via the "Peripheral fault" function.Communication via the AS-Interface remains intact.
