IE2001-0000
The Beckhoff IE2001-0000 digital output extension box from the IE Extension Box Units series by Beckhoff provides up to 8 channels of switching outputs with a nominal output voltage of 24 V DC (-15%/+20%). With robust IP65, IP66, IP67 protection per EN 60529, it ensures reliable operation in harsh industrial environments. The unit is designed to extend digital output capabilities of fieldbus and control systems, offering versatile support for ohmic, inductive, and lamp loads.
Each output channel is individually short-circuit proof and supports a maximum continuous output current of 0.5 A with a typical short-circuit current rating of 1.5 A. Auxiliary power current is typ. 20 mA per channel, with a total current consumption of 25 mA (without sensor current). Outputs are wired via M8 screw-type connectors, while the power supply connection uses one M8 4-pin male feed and one M8 4-pin female downstream socket. EMC compliance with EN 61000-6-2 and EN 61000-6-4 further enhances immunity to electrical noise, making the IE2001-0000 ideal for high-precision automation tasks.
Built to withstand mechanical stress, the IE2001-0000 meets vibration and shock resistance standards EN 60068-2-6 and EN 60068-2-27 and operates reliably between 0 … +55 °C (storage: –25 … +85 °C). CE and UL certifications validate global safety and quality compliance. The durable PA6 polyamide housing, flexible installation positions, and integrated protection rating provide long-term durability and compatibility with common industrial control architectures. By integrating this extension box into automation systems, users benefit from streamlined installation, enhanced system scalability, and minimized downtime in demanding industrial applications.
