The AC2516 is an AS-Interface ClassicLine analog input module designed for four current-type analog input channels. Its ClassicLine90 construction provides a robust distributed field interface. M12 connections support organized industrial sensor wiring. The IP67-rated design is intended for demanding field environments. It enables analog process values to be transferred to an AS-i automation system.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
Four analog input channels allow measurement signals to be collected from compatible current-output sensors. The module converts field-level analog information into process data for the AS-i controller. M12 connections support practical field installation. IP67 protection provides environmental protection suitable for industrial field applications. The module is useful for decentralized analog measurement.
Current-based analog sensors can provide continuous process information instead of binary states. The module can be used for monitoring variables such as pressure, flow, level, or other process conditions when compatible sensors are used. Four channels allow multiple measurements at one field location. AS-i transfers the processed information to the control system. This supports decentralized process monitoring.
Analog channel status can be monitored through the automation system. Sensor wiring and connectors should be inspected when readings become unstable. M12 connections should be properly secured and protected. Field installation should be checked for moisture or mechanical damage. Periodic calibration checks should follow the machine maintenance program.
Install the module near the analog sensor group. Use suitable M12 field connections and appropriate sensor wiring. Configure the analog channels according to the AS-i system architecture. Validate signal scaling within the PLC program. Correct commissioning ensures meaningful process values.
