The module rack MT08-2G consists of a backplane and the actual rack system. It can accommodate a gateway, a power supply unit

as well as 8 I/O modules. Up to 64 binary inputs/outputs or 32 analog inputs/outputs resp.

a mix of both can be connected to it. Unlike

the MT16, neither gateways nor power supply units can be connected redundantly to the

MT08.

All modules can be plugged and unplugged

under power without interrupting the data

transmission.

The module rack is designed in a combined

protection rating of Ex e and Ex i and can

therefore be used in zone 1.

The power supply of modules on the backplane is limited to prevent sparking. This allows you to pull and plug modules in powered

state with excom® mounted in zone 1.

The rack system is made of continuously cast

aluminum. This ensures increased stability

and shielding. The module rack is suited for

switch cabinet and 19 rack mounting.

■ Module rack for max. 8 I/O modules, 1
