Information About D4-16ND2

The Automation Direct D4-16ND2 is a discrete input module from the DL405 series, designed to provide efficient and reliable handling of digital signals in PLC and machine control applications. This module is engineered to integrate seamlessly into automation systems, offering a robust solution for managing a variety of discrete inputs.

Featuring 16 discrete input points, the D4-16ND2 is capable of processing multiple digital signals simultaneously. Each input point operates within a nominal voltage range of 12-24 VDC, allowing the module to interface with a wide range of digital sensors, switches, and other input devices. This broad voltage range enhances the module's versatility, making it suitable for various applications where different input voltages are used.

The D4-16ND2 supports sourcing input types, which means that the module supplies current to the connected devices. This configuration is particularly useful in systems where input devices require a positive voltage supply to operate. Sourcing inputs are commonly used in automation systems where reliable signal transmission and detection are critical.

One of the key features of the D4-16ND2 is its two isolated input commons, each serving eight input points. This isolation helps to protect the module and the overall control system from electrical noise and ground loops, which can lead to signal interference and inaccuracies. By isolating the input commons, the module ensures that issues in one part of the system do not adversely affect the performance of other inputs, thereby enhancing the stability and reliability of the control system.

While the D4-16ND2 does not feature fast response capabilities, it is well-suited for standard discrete input applications where high-speed processing is not a primary concern. The module provides reliable signal detection and processing, ensuring consistent performance for typical industrial control tasks.

The module includes a removable terminal block, which simplifies installation and maintenance. The removable terminal block allows for easy wiring and connection of input devices, reducing the potential for errors during setup. Additionally, it facilitates straightforward maintenance and replacement, minimizing system downtime during updates or repairs.

For configuration and programming, the D4-16ND2 is compatible with DirectSOFT programming software version 4.0 or later. DirectSOFT is a widely used programming environment known for its user-friendly interface and comprehensive tools, making it easy to set up and configure the module according to specific application requirements. This compatibility ensures that users can efficiently integrate the D4-16ND2 into their automation systems, optimizing performance and functionality.

Designed for durability and reliability, the D4-16ND2 is built to withstand the demands of industrial environments. Its robust construction ensures consistent operation even under challenging conditions, making it an ideal choice for various automation and control applications.

In summary, the Automation Direct D4-16ND2 discrete input module offers a dependable and versatile solution for managing digital inputs in automation systems. With its 16 input points, support for sourcing inputs, isolated input commons, and user-friendly installation features, the D4-16ND2 provides the performance and flexibility needed for effective control and monitoring of discrete signals. Whether used in new installations or retrofitted into existing systems, this module delivers reliable operation and easy integration, supporting efficient and stable automation processes.
