Product Overview

The Allen-Bradley 2080-IF4 is a high-resolution analog input expansion module designed specifically for the Micro800 PLC family. This plug-in component allows engineers to increase the I/O density of Micro810, Micro820, Micro830, Micro850, and Micro870 controllers without increasing the physical footprint of the PLC on the DIN rail. By plugging directly into the front-facing slots of the controller, the 2080-IF4 provides a cost-effective solution for integrating sensors such as pressure transducers, temperature transmitters, and flow meters.

This module is engineered for precision, converting continuous analog signals into 16-bit digital values. Its versatile design supports multiple signal types, making it a universal choice for diverse process control and monitoring tasks in industrial automation.

Technical Capabilities and Performance

The 2080-IF4 delivers high-performance signal conditioning and data conversion for critical process variables.

• Input Channels: 4 single-ended channels.

• Signal Support: Selectable voltage (0–10V DC) or current (0–20mA).

• Resolution: 16-bit unipolar (0 to 65535 counts), providing granular data for sensitive measurements.

• Accuracy and Repeatability: Precision engineered with a repeatability of ±0.1% of full scale.

• Input Impedance: Voltage inputs at >1 MΩ; Current inputs at <250 Ω.
