Pulse Extender

Two input configurations "edge-controlled" and "pulse-controlled" can be used for DP2402  and DP4402.

In processes with short switching pulses, it is a challenge for the control system to reliably detect every single switching pulse of a sensor. The DP2402 and DP4402 converts input pulses, with a sampling rate up to 2,000 Hz, into switching signals with a defined duration. Additionally, a delay time can be set for the output of these switching signals.

If you need the functionality of a timer relay, you can use the input configuration “pulse-controlled”. The switching delay allows you to suppress short input pulses or delay the switching of the outputs. The switch-off delay keeps the outputs active for the defined duration. The parameters are set on the device or via IO-Link.

The DP2402  and DP4402 can be connected directly to a sensor with an M12 connector and can also be used directly in the field thanks to its high IP protection. This saves valuable space in the control cabinet.
