(5) Input wiring for the input terminal
Item
Current-output-type
proximity switch
24V
(a) DC input
1] When each input and common terminal (C) are loaded with 24VDC, the input status changes to ON, and
approximately 4.8mA or 8 mA (depending on input numbers) current flow to the external input contacts.
2] For sensors such as a proximity switch and photoelectric switch, current-output-type (transistor open
collector) can be directly connected. For voltage-output-type sensors, connect them to the input terminal
after first going through the transistor.

4] Limit the wiring length within 30 m (98.43ft.).
5] Each common on the input terminal block is independent of each other. Make an external connection as
needed.

The current that flows to a contact when external contacts
are closed is approximately 4.8mA or 8mA. If the use of a
strong electric contact cannot be avoided, add resistance as
shown in the diagram at left and supply sufficient current to
the contact to prevent a faulty contact.
