DECS-250 Contact Expansion Module
33 • Contact Expansion Module
General Information
The optional CEM-2020 is a remote auxiliary device that provides additional DECS-250 contact inputs
and outputs. Two types of modules are available. A standard module (CEM-2020) provides 24 contact
outputs and a high current module (CEM-2020H) provides 18 contact outputs.
Features
CEM-2020s have the following features:
• 10 Contact Inputs
• 18 Contact Outputs (CEM-2020H) or 24 Contact Outputs (CEM-2020)
• Functionality of Inputs and Outputs assigned by BESTlogic™Plus programmable logic
• Communications via CAN Bus

Contact Outputs
Ratings
CEM-2020
Outputs 12 through 23 .. 1 Adc at 30 Vdc, Form C, gold contacts∗
Outputs 24 through 35 .. 4 Adc at 30 Vdc, Form C, 1.2 A pilot duty†
CEM-2020H
Outputs 12 through 23 .. 2 Adc at 30 Vdc, Form C, gold contacts∗
Outputs 24 through 29 .. 10 Adc at 30 Vdc, Form C, 1.2 A pilot duty†
