CTI 2596-8 8-Point DC Output Module
2596-8 8-Point DC Output Module
The 2596-8 provides 8 11-125 VDC outputs from the CTI 2500 Series® or Simatic® 505 I/O base.
The solid-state outputs can be used to switch on or off external devices such as pilot lamps, motor starters, or solenoids.
Features
2596-8 replaces Siemens® 505-4508. 4708
Individually fused sourcing outputs
Isolation in groups of 2
Wide 11-125 VDC output range
2.0 Amps per output
The 2596-8 8 Point DC Discrete Output Module
provides eight sourcing fused outputs from the CTI
2500 Series® or Simatic® 505 I/O base. The module
utilizes solid-state output circuits to switch on or off
external devices such as pilot lamps, motor starters,
or solenoids. The 2596-8 is designed to switch
externally supplied 11-125 VDC.
Features
• 8 DC output points
• Replaces Siemens® 505-4508. -4708
• 3000 VDC group-to-group isolation
• 2100 VDC channel-to-backplane isolation
• Isolation in groups of two
• Wide 11-125 VDC output range
• 2.0 Amps per output
• 16 Amps total module output
• Individually sourcing fused outputs
• Single-wide module
Grouping Configuration
The 2596-8. two channles are grouped together
and share a common field user power, thereby
allowing a different user power supply voltage to
be used by each grouping. Jumpers J2. J4. J5.
and J6 are set in the “8 Common” selection from
the factory and, for proper module operation,
should not be altered. This setting allows for 2
points per common operation.
For example, Channels 1-2 will share a common
user power and Channels 3-4 will share another
common user power. In this example each group
of four channels is isolated from the other group
of four channels. Because each group of four is
isolated, the user may also change the supply
voltage for each group. So, in this example,
Channels 1-2 could be 24VDC outputs and
Channels 3-4 could be 60VDC outputs.
