The DIO216 (Order Number 00012240-00) is a highly versatile digital interface module designed for the Bachmann M1 automation platform. It features 16 high-density channels that are individually configurable, allowing each point to function as either an input or an output. This "all-in-one" flexibility allows engineers to optimize cabinet space and minimize spare part inventories by adapting a single module to varying field requirements. Engineered for the rigors of heavy industry, the DIO216 utilizes 3-wire connection technology to simplify wiring for sensors and actuators while providing robust galvanic isolation to safeguard the system bus from electromagnetic interference and field-side transients.
The DIO216 is defined by its adaptive hardware configuration and industrial-grade electrical protection.
