B7AP

By connecting the B7AP Power Coupler between the B7A Input Unit and B7A Output Unit, it is possible to transmit multiple switch signals without contact from input devices to controllers. When using the B7AP Power Coupler in this way, it is possible to transmit power via electromagnetic coupling, so a power supply for the Input Unit is not necessary.

The transmission distance between Power Couplers without contact is 8±1.5 mm. The maximum transmission distance between the B7A Input Unit and B7A Output Unit is 100 m (when transmitting power or signals).

The B7AP-M1 is equipped with an operation indicator that lights the usable range during Coupler setup, allowing for easy setup.

Switch signals and power can be transmitted even when there is plastic, glass, wooden, or other non-metallic objects between the Couplers (B7AP-S1/-M1).

The Couplers have IP67 degree of protection, which allows them to be used in harsh environments that may expose them to dust from glass, plastic or paper, or exposure to water. The Couplers can be used in a wide range of applications.

When transmitting power and transmission signals, a maximum of 10 points can be input simultaneously to the B7A Input Unit. (B7A Input Unit: Input Current 3.8 mA × 10 points = 38 mA)

When transmitting only signals, a maximum of 16 points can be input to the B7A Input Unit.
