Description
The ControlByWeb® X-15S™ is an eight digital input expansion module designed to add reliable status monitoring to an X-400™ or X-600M™ controller. Featuring 8 optically isolated digital inputs, the X-15S provides electrical separation between field equipment and low-voltage control circuits, helping improve safety and reduce the risk of ground loop interference in industrial environments.
Multiple X-15S modules can be connected via ribbon cable for power and communication, making it a scalable solution for larger systems. This module is well suited for applications such as alarm panel integration, equipment status monitoring, safety interlocks, facility automation, storage facilities, and access control.
Key Features
- 8 Optically Isolated Digital Inputs: Adds eight reliable input channels for status monitoring and control.
- Input Functions: Supports Monitor State, Control Relays, Control Remote Relays, Count, Frequency, High Time, and ON Time.
- Flexible Expansion: Connect multiple X-15S modules to an X-400™ or X-600M™ controller as needed.
- Powered Through Expansion Bus: No separate power supply connections are required.
- LED Input Status Indicators: Includes 8 LEDs for inputs 1 through 8, plus a power indicator.
- Industrial Monitoring Applications: Ideal for door sensors, digital pulse meters, button and switch inputs, machine status, and more.
- Removable Terminal Connector: Simplifies installation and wiring.
- Reliable Isolation: Helps protect control systems in demanding industrial environments.
