FLEX I/O Modules
FLEX™ I/O is a cost-effective, flexible, modular I/O system for distributed applications, offering all the functions of larger rack-based I/O without the space requirements. This, along with outstanding reliability, is why we have sold over 5 million modules.
Benefits
- Modularity of network adapter, I/O, and the backplane means one I/O product line can fit your needs.
- Compact design of hardware results in smaller cabinets versus rack-based I/O.
- Locating I/O near sensors and actuators eliminates long wiring runs, reduces terminations per point, and decreases engineering and installation time.
- Removal and Insertion Under Power (RIUP) of any FLEX I/O module without disruption of any other modules makes it possible to replace or add a module while keeping the rest of the system running, reducing downtime.
- Over 60 catalog numbers and a wide breadth of specialty modules make this product a perfect fit for hundreds of applications.
- Separate terminal bases make it possible to replace FLEX I/O modules without rewiring, saving labor costs.
- Provides local I/O for FlexLogix controllers at an attractive price.
- Selection of FLEX I/O products are also available with conformal coating.
