1004N-FX PHOENIX

Phoenix Contact analog modules process continuous physical signals such as voltage, current, temperature, and resistance across industrial networks like PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, EtherCAT, and PROFIBUS. Analog input modules convert real-world continuous signals into digital values for controller processing, while analog output modules convert digital control signals back into variable voltage or current outputs to drive devices like control valves and variable frequency drives. Designed with robust channel-to-channel isolation and high surge immunity, these modules maintain system signal integrity even in harsh electromagnetic environments. Advanced diagnostic capabilities enable real-time detection of wire breaks, short circuits, and out-of-range values, significantly reducing troubleshooting time.

Product Parameters

• Signal Types: Supports standard analog ranges including 0 to 10 V, -10 V to +10 V, 0 to 20 mA, and 4 to 20 mA.

• Specialized Sensor Inputs: Dedicated channels for Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTD types Pt100, Pt1000, Ni1000) and Thermocouples (Types J, K, T, E, N, R, S, B).

• Resolution: High-resolution Analog-to-Digital (A/D) and Digital-to-Analog (D/A) conversion, typically 16-bit.

• Accuracy: Measurement error margin typically less than 0.1 percent of full-scale value at 25 degrees Celsius.

• Update Rate: Fast signal conversion times ranging from less than 1 millisecond to 10 milliseconds depending on configured filtering.

• Electrical Isolation: Galvanic isolation between channels, backplane bus, and auxiliary supply, typically rated at 500 VAC to 1500 VAC.

• Operating Temperature Range: Extended temperature support from -25 degrees Celsius to +60 degrees Celsius for standard modules, and -40 degrees Celsius to +70 degrees Celsius for extreme condition variants.

• Housing and Mounting: Push-in direct connection technology mounted on standard DIN rails (Inline and Axioline F) or IP67-rated rugged enclosures for field installation (Axioline E).

• Power Supply: 24 VDC nominal operating voltage supplied via the backplane or local terminal connections.

Product Advantages

Phoenix Contact analog modules feature Push-in connection technology, allowing tool-free and fast wiring that substantially reduces installation and maintenance labor time.

The modular design allows seamless combination with digital and function modules on a single DIN rail node, providing maximum flexibility to scale I/O systems to exact application requirements.

High conversion resolution and superior signal filtering ensure precise processing of sensitive measurement values, preserving process control quality.

Integrated LEDs and detailed network-level channel diagnostics simplify operational maintenance by providing instant visual feedback on power status, signal range, and wiring faults.

The compact module width saves valuable space inside control cabinets, lowering enclosure costs and increasing overall component density.

Important Considerations and Precautions

Always ensure proper grounding of shielded analog signal cables at designated shield connection terminals to prevent electromagnetic interference from distorting sensitive analog readings.

Verify that the input or output signal configuration in the programming software strictly matches the connected sensor or actuator hardware specs to avoid measurement errors or potential component damage.

Do not exceed the maximum allowable input current or voltage thresholds listed in the module technical documentation, as overvoltage or overcurrent can permanently damage input channels.

Ensure the total current consumption of all installed modules does not exceed the power supply capacity of the bus coupler or local power terminal.

Never wire or disconnect analog module terminal blocks while the system power supply is active to prevent electrical arcing and field instrument damage.
