The G12 family of AS-interface modules represents the easiest-to-install and most flexible, user-friendly family of AS-interface modules available. Six distinct models are available with various input and output configurations, and short or long housing styles to suit any AS-interface application need.
The G12 family features SPEEDCON M12 connectors for the fastest possible installation of sensors or actuators, and a single rugged stainless steel mounting base that supports two housing sizes and various I/O mixes so users can quickly and easily change the I/O count without having to remount the base or cable. Additionally, output-specific diagnostics are available right on the module and allow maintenance personnel to quickly identify and correct the problem for maximum machine uptime.
Machined, gold-plated contacts provide superior corrosion resistance and reliability when compared with stamped contacts plated with non-precious metals. An integrated DIN clip on the stainless steel mounting base means users don't have to choose ahead of time how the G12 will be mounted, which speeds and simplifies planning, ordering and installation. In instances where the top-bottom orientation of the AS-interface flat cable needs to be reversed, the G12's single-piece cable guide makes it possible to do so without tools, in just seconds.
