IE1502-0000 by Beckhoff

The IE1502-0000 extension box by Beckhoff from the IE Extension Box Units series is engineered for high-speed counting and precision control in industrial automation. It features dual independent counters, each with a 32-bit depth, and supports a robust counting frequency of 100 kHz with up to 2 kHz switching between up and down counting. With two counter inputs and additional gate inputs and up/down switches, this module ensures reliable signal processing and accurate counting for critical applications.

Designed to meet rigorous industrial demands, the IE1502-0000 boasts numerous technical strengths. It operates at a nominal input voltage of 24 V DC with a tolerance of -15%/+20% while drawing a low current consumption of 25 mA. The module provides an advanced process image containing 80 inputs/outputs which encapsulates 2 x 32-bit data and 2 x 8-bit control/status information for precise monitoring and control. It features robust input connections, specifically M12 screw-type sockets, and its EMC immunity/emission conforms to EN 61000-6-2/EN 61000-6-4 standards, ensuring dependable performance under electrically noisy conditions.

Additional features enhance this module's functionality and durability. It includes two 24 V DC outputs rated at 0.5 A each that are individually short-circuit-proof, and the sensor supply is derived from the control voltage with built-in short-circuit protection for enhanced safety. Furthermore, the product is designed for operation within a temperature range of 0 to +55°C and complies with vibration and shock resistance standards EN 60068-2-6/EN 60068-2-27. With IP65/66/67 protection ratings, this module is well suited for harsh industrial environments, delivering reliable performance and operational excellence in modern automation systems.
