Plug. Wire. Replace. — Removable terminals make installation and maintenance effortless.
You have spent hours in cramped control panels, struggling to rewire a failed I/O module. Every wire has to be removed, labeled, and then painstakingly reconnected to the new module. One mistake. One mislabeled wire. Hours of troubleshooting.
There is a better way. N232x digital output modules feature removable, pluggable terminals. Wire the terminal once. If a module ever needs replacement — pop off the terminals, swap the module, plug the terminals back in. No rewiring. No relabeling. No mistakes. Minutes instead of hours.
The N232x digital output module comes with spring-cage terminals that detach from the module. Wire the terminals on your bench or in the panel. When a module needs replacement — whether failed, upgraded, or reconfigured — simply pull off the terminals, remove the module, snap in the new module, and reattach the terminals. Zero rewiring. Zero downtime for rework.
This alone saves hours per replacement. Multiply by dozens of modules across your facility, and the savings are enormous.
The spring-cage terminals support solid, stranded, and fine-stranded wires from 0.3 to 2.5 mm² (AWG 22-14). The recommended stripping length is 8 to 9 mm. Fast, secure, and suitable for industrial control-panel installations.
The N232x series provides 32 digital output channels for controlling industrial automation equipment. Select the appropriate model according to the required output signal type.
Built for industrial automation applications. The N232x provides 2 kVrms electrical isolation, an operating temperature range of -20°C to 55°C, IP20 protection, and EMC protection compliant with IEC 61000-4-2 Level 2 and IEC 61000-4-5 Level 2.
| Traditional Fixed-Terminal I/O | N232x with Removable Terminals |
|---|---|
| Replace module → remove every wire → label each wire → reconnect wires to new module → test → pray no mistakes | Replace module → remove terminals while wires stay attached → swap module → reattach terminals → done |
| Typical downtime: 30–60 minutes per replacement | Typical downtime: 2–5 minutes per replacement |
| High risk of wiring errors, including misplaced wires and incorrect polarity | Reduced wiring-error risk because wires remain connected to their terminals |
| Panel maintenance requires an electrician or trained technician | Pre-wired terminals simplify module replacement and maintenance |
You are tired of spending hours rewiring failed I/O modules in tight panels. N232x removable terminals turn a lengthy repair into a quick module swap. Your team will thank you.
You build panels that will be maintained by others. The N232x makes your panels easier to service. Your customers will appreciate the lower maintenance costs. You will get fewer after-hours emergency calls.
Your machines are installed in facilities around the world. When a digital output module needs replacement, your customer expects a fast fix. The N232x allows the module to be replaced without rewiring every output connection. Lower support costs. Higher customer satisfaction.
The N232x is an optional module for the N Series distributed I/O system and must be used with a suitable fieldbus coupler, such as a BL210 Series coupler. Its 32 digital output channels can be used to control industrial automation equipment.
The N232x must be combined with a suitable N Series fieldbus coupler, such as a BL210 Series coupler. I/O modules can be arranged in different combinations within the distributed I/O station without grouping them by module type.
