PRODUCT DETAILS
🔹 Product TitleÂ
IFM Electronic AC2620 AS-Interface Universal Module IP65 – 4 Pt100 Inputs for Industrial Field I/O
🔹 Meta DescriptionÂ
Industrial IP65 AS-Interface universal module with 4 Pt100 temperature inputs, 16-bit resolution, robust LED diagnostics and AS-i S-7.3.E profile. Reliable field I/O.
🔹 Professional Product DescriptionÂ
The ifm ac2620 AS-Interface universal module is a high-quality AS-Interface (AS-i) I/O module designed for robust industrial field applications where analog sensor signals must be acquired and communicated over the AS-Interface bus. Built by IFM Electronic, this IP65-rated universal module integrates seamlessly into AS-i networks to capture four Pt100 temperature sensor inputs with high precision while maintaining protection against dust and water ingress, making it ideal for harsh industrial environments.
This module is a versatile solution for distributed analog data acquisition, enabling efficient temperature monitoring and control in automation systems, packaging lines, conveyors, HVAC, and other field-mounted sensor applications.
🔹 Key Features & Benefits
📊 4 × Pt100 Temperature Inputs
Supports connection of up to four Pt100 resistance temperature sensors (2- or 3-wire) for analog temperature acquisition. Excellent for thermal process control and environmental monitoring.
🧠High-Resolution Data
16-bit resolution ensures fine granularity (~0.1 °C resolution) in temperature measurements across each channel, enabling precise control and early detection of thermal variations.
🔌 AS-Interface Connectivity
Compliant with standard AS-i S-7.3.E profile for universal modules, allowing seamless integration into existing AS-i networks and controllers.
🛡 IP65 Industrial Protection
Rated IP65, the module is protected from dust and low-pressure water jets, making it suitable for field installation without additional enclosures.
💡 LED Diagnostics
Status LEDs provide clear, real-time indication of module operation, AS-i communication, and fault conditions — improving troubleshooting and reducing downtime.
🔋 Low Power Consumption
Operates from standard AS-i power supply (approx. 26.5–31.6 V DC) with power draw under 80 mA, enabling efficient distributed I/O deployment.
