112  AO2000 CONTINUOUS GAS ANALYZERS  |  OI/AO2000-EN REV. B 
 
 
 
Digital I/O module: Electrical connections 
 
 
Digital inputs DI1 to DI4 
Opto-electronic coupler with 24 V DC As an alternative, activation by floating 
contacts with an external voltage of 12 to 24 V DC or by Open-Collector driv-
ers PNP or NPN. 
Digital outputs DO1 to DO4 
Floating double-throw contacts, max. contact load rating 30 V/1 A. 
The relays must always be operated within the specified data. Inductive or 
capacitive loads are to be connected with appropriate protective measures 
(freewheeling diodes for inductive and series resistors with capacitive 
loads).  
Relays are shown in the unpowered state. The unpowered state corresponds 
to the state in the event of a fault ("fail safe"). 
Design 
2x12-pole plug-in terminal strip. Please refer to the information about the 
requisite material (see page 116)!
