Description

4. Features

• Compact Design: The small form factor of the DSQC236T makes it suitable for applications where space is limited. It can be easily integrated into existing control systems without taking up excessive space.
• Flexible Configuration: The module can be configured using software tools. Users can set up the input/output functions, communication parameters, and alarm thresholds according to their specific requirements. This flexibility allows for customization in different industrial applications.
• Diagnostic Functions: It is equipped with built – in diagnostic functions that can detect faults in the input/output circuits and the communication interface. The diagnostic information can be displayed on the human – machine interface (HMI) or sent to the PLC for further analysis, facilitating quick troubleshooting.

5. Stability and Reliability

• Robust Construction: The DSQC236T is built with a durable housing that can withstand harsh industrial environments, including dust, moisture, and mechanical vibrations.
• Quality Components: It uses high – quality electronic components that are selected for their reliability and long – term performance. This helps to ensure stable operation over an extended period.
• Redundancy Support: Although not always standard, in some critical applications, redundancy options can be implemented. For example, redundant communication paths can be set up to ensure continuous data transfer in case of a communication failure.

6. Real – World Examples

• Electronics Manufacturing: In an electronics manufacturing plant, the DSQC236T is used to control the pick – and – place process of electronic components on printed circuit boards (PCBs). The digital inputs receive signals from vision sensors that detect the position and orientation of the components on the PCB. Based on these signals, the digital outputs control the movement of the robotic pick – and – place head and the activation of the vacuum gripper. The diagnostic functions of the DSQC236T help to quickly identify and resolve any issues that may arise during the process, such as a misaligned component or a malfunctioning gripper, minimizing downtime and ensuring high – quality production.
• Pharmaceutical Production: In a pharmaceutical production facility, the DSQC236T is used to control the filling and capping process of medicine bottles. The digital inputs monitor the level of the liquid in the filling tanks and the position of the bottles. The digital outputs control the opening and closing of the filling valves and the operation of the capping machines. The stable performance of the DSQC236T ensures accurate filling and capping, reducing product waste and maintaining high – quality standards.

1. Parameter Specifications

• Power Supply: The DSQC236T YB560103 – CD operates on a 24V DC power supply. The power consumption is relatively low, around 3 – 5W, ensuring energy – efficient operation in industrial settings.
• Input/Output Configuration:
  • Digital Inputs: It is equipped with 16 digital inputs. These inputs are designed to receive signals from various industrial sensors such as proximity sensors, limit switches, and photoelectric sensors. The input voltage range is 24V DC ±10%, which is a common standard in industrial applications.
  • Digital Outputs: There are 16 digital outputs. Each output can handle a maximum current of 0.5A, suitable for driving small – to medium – sized loads like indicator lights, relays, and solenoid valves.
• Communication Interface: The module supports the PROFIBUS DP communication protocol. It can communicate at a rate of up to 12 Mbps, enabling fast and reliable data transfer between the module and other devices in the industrial network, such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs).
• Electrical Isolation: It has electrical isolation between the input/output circuits and the communication interface. This isolation helps protect the module from electrical interference, short – circuits, and voltage spikes, enhancing its overall reliability.

2. Applications

• Robotics: In robotic applications, the DSQC236T is often used to interface between the robot controller and external devices. For example, in a robotic painting system in an automotive factory, the digital inputs can receive signals from sensors that detect the position of the car body and the status of the paint spray guns. The digital outputs can then control the movement of the robot arm and the operation of the spray guns.
• Industrial Automation: In general industrial automation scenarios, it can be used to monitor and control various processes. In a food processing plant, it can control the operation of conveyor belts, filling machines, and packaging equipment. The digital inputs can monitor the status of the machines, such as whether they are running or have encountered an error, and the digital outputs can send control signals to start or stop the machines.
• Material Handling: In warehouses and distribution centers, the DSQC236T can be integrated into material handling systems. It can control the movement of automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and the operation of sorting systems. The digital inputs can detect the position of pallets and products, while the digital outputs can control the motors and actuators of the AGVs and sorting equipment.

3. Weight and Dimensions

• Weight: The DSQC236T YB560103 – CD weighs approximately 0.7 kg. Its relatively light weight makes it easy to install and handle during the setup and maintenance processes.
• Dimensions: It has compact dimensions, typically around 140 mm in length, 90 mm in width, and 40 mm in height. These dimensions allow it to be easily installed in control cabinets or on DIN rails in industrial environments.
