FR-D0016N Flexem Digital Output Module 6-Point PNP 24VDC

Product Overview

The Flexem FR-D0016N is a high-density Digital Output Module designed for precision switching. This specific variant provides 16 PNP source output channels, ideal for driving industrial actuators and solenoid valves. Each channel supports a robust 1000mA peak current, with a high-capacity 500mA simultaneous load rating. Its ultra-compact 18mm width design maximizes I/O density on standard 35mm DIN rails.

Professional FAQ

Why does the part number end in "N" if it is a PNP module?
In Flexem's FR nomenclature, the "N" identifies the specific transistor hardware used for Source (PNP) switching on this 16-point card.

What is the maximum simultaneous current?
The module supports up to 500mA per channel when all 16 channels are active at once.

Can it drive inductive loads?
Yes, it can drive solenoids up to 1000mA, though we recommend flyback diodes for very high-cycle inductive loads.

Is the module DIN-rail compatible?
Yes, it fits any standard 35mm DIN-Rail and features a secure locking clip.

How do I troubleshoot a dead channel?
Verify the front-panel LED; if it is lit but the load is inactive, check the field-side power supply and common wiring.
