11 The module system
11.1
Arrangement and connection of the modules
Thanks to its modular design, the device is flexible and can be adapted to different requirements. The
units are fitted in the factory with the modules that were ordered. Additional modules can be retrofitted
in the field, or those not needed can be removed.
The diagram below shows the principle of the electrical connections and how the modules are ar-
ranged:
Supply

24 VDC
240 VAC
240 VAC
External power supply, e.g. 240 VAC
Internal power supply
The modules are electrically connected via lateral contacts for energy supply and signal exchange.
The modules for the power supply (Supply and Connect modules) only have contacts on the right
side, the CPU module only on the left, so they form the terminal modules of the internal connection.
The display module can be fitted on the front.
11.2
Number of modules in the protective housing
The number of modules in the protective housing is restricted to:
A maximum of 7 modules or
Up to 6 modules, if at least one 2xPt100 input module is used.
