Description

873RS-BIYFGZ

1. Technical Specifications

• Power Supply: The 873RS – BIYFGZ typically operates on a 24V DC power supply. The power consumption is relatively low, around 8 – 12W, which is energy – efficient for long – term operation.
• Input/Output Configuration:
  • Digital Inputs: It is equipped with 16 digital inputs. These inputs can accept signals from a variety of digital sensors, such as proximity sensors, limit switches, and photoelectric sensors. They are designed to handle input voltages in the range of 5 – 24V DC.
  • Digital Outputs: There are 8 digital outputs. Each output can drive a load with a maximum current of 1A, suitable for controlling small relays, solenoids, and indicator lights.
  • Analog Inputs: There are 4 analog inputs. They can receive signals in the ranges of 0 – 10V or 4 – 20mA, with a 12 – bit resolution, enabling basic measurement of analog quantities like temperature, pressure, or flow.
  • Analog Outputs: 2 analog outputs are available, capable of outputting signals in the same ranges as the analog inputs, for simple analog control tasks.
• Processing Speed: The response time for digital input changes is less than 10ms, and for analog input changes, it is approximately 15ms. This allows for a relatively quick reaction to changes in the monitored system.
• Communication Interfaces: It supports an RS – 485 serial communication interface with the Modbus RTU protocol. This interface enables seamless data exchange with other Modbus – compatible devices and control systems.

2. Applications

• Industrial Automation: In industrial manufacturing, it can be used to control and monitor simple to medium – complexity production processes. For example, it can manage the movement of conveyor belts, control the start and stop of machines, and monitor the status of production equipment.
• Building Automation: In commercial buildings, it can be involved in managing basic building systems such as HVAC unit control in a specific area, lighting control in a few zones, or access control at certain entrances.
• Environmental Monitoring: In environmental monitoring applications, it can measure and record parameters such as temperature, humidity, and air quality in a local area. It can then transmit the data to a central control system for analysis.

3. Weight and Dimensions

• Weight: The module weighs about 0.6 kg, which is relatively light and easy to install and handle.
• Dimensions: The overall dimensions are: length – 130mm, width – 100mm, height – 35mm. Its compact size allows for installation in standard electrical cabinets or control panels.

• Flexible Input/Output Configuration: With a combination of digital and analog inputs and outputs, it can be applied in a wide variety of scenarios, allowing for customized control and monitoring solutions.
• User – Friendly Configuration: It has a simple and intuitive configuration process, which allows users to quickly set up the module according to their specific requirements.

5. Stability and Reliability

• Robust Construction: The module is housed in a durable plastic enclosure that provides protection against dust, moisture, and minor mechanical vibrations. This ensures stable operation in normal industrial and non – industrial environments.
• Fault – Tolerant Design: It is designed with built – in protection mechanisms such as over – current protection, short – circuit protection, and over – voltage protection for the outputs. These features safeguard the module from electrical faults and extend its service life.
• Quality Components: The use of high – quality electronic components and strict quality control during manufacturing ensure long – term reliability and consistent performance.

6. Real – world Examples

• Food Packaging Factory: In a food packaging factory, the 873RS – BIYFGZ can control the filling process of food products. It monitors the level of food in the containers through analog sensors and controls the operation of filling machines via digital outputs to ensure accurate filling quantities.
• Small Office Building: In a small office building, it can manage the lighting system. By detecting the presence of people through digital sensors and the level of natural light through analog sensors, it can automatically adjust the brightness of the lights, saving energy.
