Overview
The Modicon AS-B807-132 is a specialized 32-point discrete input module engineered for Schneider Electric Modicon series PLCs and compatible industrial automation controllers. This module senses and converts 115VAC switched input signals into logic voltage levels used by programmable logic controllers. The AS-B807-132 is organized into four input groups of eight points each, providing flexible signal handling for pushbuttons, limit switches, proximity switches, and other 115VAC field devices.
Key Features
