2.1 Product Overview
The PCH Portal is a networked slave IO control device that supports multiple “Industrial Ethernet”
communication protocols to communicate with other industrial controllers in the automation industry.
The PCH Portal is engineered to interface with a manifold containing up to 32 H ISO Universal valve
channels as well as to offer a wide variety of discrete and IO-Link input/output arrangements for motion
control, while withstanding the temperature ranges, vibrations, and electrical noise of industrial
environments.

2.3 Power Supply Connectors
The Aux and Logic power connectors supply the power to all modules of the PCH Portal, the mother board
and other modules.
The following four types of power connectors are available based on the end user's requirement. Power
consumption requirements must be considered when selecting a power connection. When using the power
out connector to supply downstream power, the total power consumption available for downstream devices
is equal to maximum capacity of connector pins (AUXPT = 20A and LOGPT = 20A) less the current draw of
PCH. The PCH internal limits are as follows: AUXPCH = 12A and LOGPCH = 8A. The PCH internal limits
include devices connected to any of the 3 IO/IO-Link modules, and total wattage of the valve coils. Care
must be taken in knowing the downstream current draw in order not to overload the maximum current rating
of the pins. User can select 4-pin or 5-pin connectors configurations. Zone 1-3 is 24Vdc ,3.84A and Zone 4 is
24V, 1.28A.
NOTE: 5 pin connectors utilize pin 3 for protective earth ground.

All four types of power connectors are capable of operating with SAFE pulsed power; however, it is
recommended to use the 4 Pin C-type and 5 Pin D-type connector boards to connect SAFE 24Vdc auxiliary
source in PP or PM mode for valve control as the grounds are isolated. The connection diagram is as shown

C/D Board Wiring
NOTE:
The power back-up functionality (storing of cycle counts and error/warning/event log) of PCH Portal is not
guaranteed to function if the PCH Portal is operated outside operating voltage range i.e., when the Logic
voltage is <= 20.4V
If Aux voltage goes below the operating voltage range for the duration of 225 +/- 25 msec then the valve
outputs and Aux voltage digital outputs are turned OFF for safety purpose. This behaviour is not applicable
for “A” Module as outputs on this module operate on logic supply.
To avoid unwanted motion in field a hysteresis of 200 mV is maintained to turn ON/OFF outputs in case of
Aux voltage error condition.
2.4 Grounding
The chassis ground is connected to the earth connection at the highlighted point below.
