The PROFINET communication interface module CI501-PNIO is used as decentralized I/O module in PROFINET networks. The network connection is performed via 2 RJ45 connectors which are integrated in the terminal unit. The communication interface module contains 22 I/O channels with the following properties:

  • 4 analog inputs (1.0 ... 1.3), configurable as:

    • -10 V ... +10 V

    • 0 V ... +10 V

    • -10 V ... +10 V (differential voltage)

    • 0 mA ... 20 mA

    • 4 mA ... 20 mA

    • Pt100 , Pt1000, Ni1000 (for each 2-wire and 3-wire)

    • 24 V digital input function

  • 2 analog outputs (1.5 ... 1.6), configurable as:

    • -10 V ... +10 V

    • 0 mA ... 20 mA

    • 4 mA ... 20 mA

  • 8 digital inputs 24 V DC in 1 group (2.0 ... 2.7)

  • 8 digital transistor outputs 24 V DC (0.5 A max.) in 1 group (3.0 ... 3.7)

  • Resolution of the analog channels: 12 bits

The inputs/outputs are galvanically isolated from the Ethernet network. There is no potential separation between the channels. The configuration of the analog inputs/outputs is performed by software.

For usage in enhanced ambient conditions (e.g. wider temperature and humidity range), a special XC version of the device is available.
