Overview
The Lenze EPM-T211 is a dedicated 16-channel digital input module designed for the Lenze modular I/O system IP20. Operating at DC24V (18–28.8 V range), this module accepts sensor signals, limit switches, and binary control inputs and interfaces them to the central controller via the backplane bus. The EPM-T211 is a 24 VDC, 16 digital input I/O module, making it an ideal expansion choice for Lenze-based automation architectures.
