For example, a 16-point module might use 3 Auxiliary I/O Terminals for 4-wire
devices as displayed in the following figure.
Auxiliary I/O Terminals accommodate current levels up to 8 A and voltage up to
264 V AC. Voltage transients up to 300 V AC will not cause damage.
Installing Auxiliary I/O Terminals
Auxiliary I/O Terminals are installed by inserting the tabs into the slots on the I/O
Carrier or Interposing Terminals and pressing downward. Screws can be
inserted through the panel-mount holes for added stability if needed.
Auxiliary Carriers must be installed on the I/O Carrier or Interposing Terminals
before connecting field wiring.
Wire Specifications for Auxiliary I/O Terminals
Wire specifications depend on the terminal type. For box-type or spring type
terminals, each terminal accommodates one solid or stranded AWG #14 (avg.
2
2.1mm cross section) to AWG #22 (avg. 0.36mm
wires up to AWG #18 (avg. 0.86mm
For barrier-type terminals, each terminal accommodates one or two solid or
stranded wires from AWG #22 (avg. 0.36mm
2
2.1mm cross section).
Use copper wire rated for 90 deg C. When inserting two wires in the same
position, the wires must be the same size and type (solid or stranded).
