GWD Series External I/O module
Product Description
- Wide variety of models, supporting various input and output configurations
- Installed near the sensor area on the equipment, it directly powers the sensor and transmits/receives signals, significantly reducing wiring
- Comes standard with a transparent protective cover to prevent metal dust and similar particles from entering the IO-pin terminal block
- In the 16-channel module, 8 of the IO pins can be flexibly configured as inputs or outputs via DIP switches, reducing operating costs for customers
