Eaton Moeller XN Series – Modular I/O and Communication Systems
Welcome to Casadaa Distribution’s comprehensive Eaton Moeller XN Series product range. Designed for flexible, scalable automation applications, the XN Series offers a broad portfolio of modular digital and analog input/output (I/O) modules, communication interfaces, and base units engineered to meet the demands of modern industrial control systems.
Eaton XN Series Digital Input and Output Modules
The Eaton XN Series provides a variety of digital input modules compatible with 24VDC and AC voltage levels, supporting positive logic signal processing for reliable machine and process control.
-
Digital Inputs (DI):
Modules such as XN-16DI-24VDC-P and XN-32DI-24VDC-P feature 16 and 32-channel inputs respectively, operating at 24VDC with positive logic. Other variants like XN-2DI-120/230VAC support AC voltage inputs, making them suitable for diverse industrial environments. -
Digital Outputs (DO):
Eaton XN digital output modules provide versatile switching options including transistor outputs for fast switching up to 0.5A or 2A loads (e.g., XN-16DO-24VDC-0.5A-P, XN-2DO-24VDC-2A-P) and relay outputs (XN-2DO-R-CO, XN-2DO-R-NO) capable of switching higher current AC or DC loads. Output modules also support 120/230VAC output voltages for direct actuator control.
These modules ensure rapid response times and robust electrical isolation, essential for high-performance control and safety.
Eaton XN Series Analog Input and Output Modules
Designed to interface with a variety of sensor signals, the XN analog modules offer high accuracy and flexible input/output configurations.
-
Analog Inputs (AI):
Support for standard industrial signals such as 0/4–20mA and ±10VDC is available with models like XN-1AI-I(0/4...20MA) and XN-1AI-U(-10/0...+10VDC). Temperature measurement inputs include RTD sensors (XN-2AI-PT/NI-2/3) and thermocouples (XN-2AI-THERMO-PI), enabling precise thermal monitoring in process control. -
Analog Outputs (AO):
Output modules provide current and voltage output signals (XN-1AO-I(0/4...20MA), XN-2AO-U(-10/0...+10VDC)) for controlling analog actuators such as proportional valves and variable speed drives.
With high resolution and linearity, these analog modules are suited for applications requiring detailed process feedback and control.
Eaton XN Series Communication Modules
To facilitate integration into industrial networks, Eaton Moeller offers communication interface modules compatible with popular protocols:
-
RS232 and RS485/422 Interfaces:
Modules like XN-1RS232 and XN-1RS485/422 provide serial communication channels essential for device-level connectivity and data exchange. -
SSI Interface:
The XN-1SSI module supports synchronous serial interfaces, ideal for connecting incremental encoders and similar devices.
These modules ensure seamless communication between controllers, sensors, and actuators within complex automation systems.
Eaton XN Series Base Modules and Accessories
The modular nature of the XN Series is supported by a comprehensive range of base units and accessories, which provide power distribution, mechanical support, and system expansion.
-
Base Modules:
Variants such as XN-B3S-SBB, XN-B4S-SBBC, and XN-B6S-SBBSBB offer different slot configurations (3, 4, or 6 slots) and wiring options to accommodate various system sizes. -
Power Feed Modules:
The XN-PF-24VDC-D and XN-PF-120/230VAC-D ensure stable and regulated power supply to the modules, optimizing performance and reliability. -
Segment Couplers and System Bases:
Units such as the XN-S4S-SBBC and XN-S6T-SBBSBC enable segment coupling and system expansion, supporting flexible control architectures.
All base modules are engineered for quick installation and maintenance, featuring secure locking mechanisms and standardized connectors to minimize downtime.
