Allen – Bradley 2190 – BKC – 48M – 86TCCXC ControlLogix I/O Module
2. Product Description
The Allen – Bradley 2190 – BKC – 48M – 86TCCXC is a high – performance control module tailored for industrial automation applications. Renowned for its robustness and reliability, it plays a crucial role in diverse industrial settings.
2.1 Core Functions
- Input/Output Handling: It features 48 input channels, which can receive a wide range of digital signals from various field devices such as push buttons, limit switches, and proximity sensors. These inputs are accurately processed to provide real – time status information to the control system. On the output side, it has 64 output channels. These outputs are capable of driving different types of loads, including relays, solenoid valves, and indicator lights. For instance, in a manufacturing plant’s assembly line, the module can use its inputs to detect the position of components on conveyor belts and then use its outputs to control the movement of robotic arms or activate packaging machinery.
- Communication Capability: The module supports the Ethernet/IP communication protocol. This enables seamless integration with other devices in the industrial network, such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs), human – machine interfaces (HMIs), and other control units. It can efficiently transmit and receive data, ensuring smooth coordination between different parts of the control system. For example, it can send real – time production data to an HMI for operators to monitor and receive control commands from a PLC to adjust the operation of connected equipment.
- Temperature Resilience: Operating efficiently within a wide temperature range from – 40 °C to 85 °C, this module is suitable for use in harsh industrial environments. Whether it’s installed in a cold storage facility or a high – temperature factory, it can maintain stable performance, reducing the risk of system failures due to temperature fluctuations.
2.2 Design Features
- Rugged Design: Built to withstand demanding industrial conditions, the module has a durable construction. It can endure vibrations, shocks, and electromagnetic interference commonly found in industrial plants. This ensures its long – term reliability and reduces the need for frequent maintenance and replacement.
- Compact Dimensions: With dimensions of 220 mm x 120 mm x 50 mm, it is space – efficient, making it easy to install in control cabinets even with limited space. Its compact form factor does not compromise its functionality, as it is packed with advanced features to meet the complex requirements of industrial automation.
- DIN Rail Mounting: Designed for DIN – rail mounting, the 2190 – BKC – 48M – 86TCCXC module offers easy installation and removal. This standard mounting method is widely used in industrial control systems, allowing for quick and secure setup.
