Installation. Save on wiring expenses by installing
Classic I/O in the field, near the actual field devices.
Mounting the controller with the I/O further reduces
your wiring expenditures by eliminating the need for
long runs of multi-cores. The integrated design of
the I/O subsystem can eliminate the need for
marshaling panels. This saves you even more in
your total capital costs.
The provision of in-line fuses and bussed power
saves on installation costs compared with external
fuses and power distribution.

I/O Terminal Blocks

A variety of I/O terminal blocks is available to meet
specific functionality and environmental
requirements. I/O terminal blocks and I/O cards used
together are equipped with function and field wiring
protection keys to ensure that only the I/O card and
I/O terminal block that match functionally can be
plugged into each other.

The terminal block keys can be preset to speed

installation. For field devices that are located in an
intrinsically safe zone, or discrete field devices that
require more than the maximum specified current,
standard mass terminated interfaces are provided
with 10-, 16-, or 24-pin connections to allow mass
termination cable connection to intermediary panels.
The systems integrator usually installs these panels.
The low-level signals are conducted over 0.093 mm²
(28 AWG) ribbon cable or round instrument cable.

For field devices requiring external power, the 4-wire

I/O terminal block is available. This particular I/O
terminal block is used in conjunction with the AI, 4-
20 mA card.
