Inputs/outputs modules: MPNE Mect Srl Installation 3.2.1 Distances The system must be installed in a way that there is enough space for heat dissipation and cabling. Avoid cables superimposition to prevent EMC problems. MPNE1001 Wiring 3.3.1 Isolation On MPNE1001 there is not galvanic isolation between the main power supply and the internal communication bus.
Page 14
Inputs/outputs modules: MPNE Mect Srl 3.3.2 System power supply Il MPNE1001 requires a 24VDC (+/-15% ) power supply as shown in the figure. The system is protected from the power supply polarity inversion. Before turning on the device configure the Modbus setting, see chapter: Modbus parameters configurations.
Page 15
Inputs/outputs modules: MPNE Mect Srl 3.3.3 Digital outputs power supply The digital outputs of the MPNE1001 are powered separately (24Vpot) from the circuit electronics so that they can be cut off from the emergency chain without disconnecting the low power part. The digital outputs can provide up to 2A maximum current at 24V (for CODE 02) and up to 4A maximum current at 24V (for CODE 06).
