Manual
Version 1.4.1
3 Device Description
The digital output module 750-538 (2DO RELAY Ex i) controls intrinsically safe
actuators operating in hazardous environments of zone 0 and 1, e. g. magnetic
valves, contactors, optical or acoustic actuators.
Installation only in zone 2 or in non-hazardous environments!
The installation of the WAGO I/O SYSTEM 750 fieldbus couplers/controllers and
I/O modules is only to be done in zone 2 or in non-hazardous environments.
The module has two output channels and enables direct connecting of actuators
to the connections DO 1 or /DO 1 (i.e. NOT DO 1) of channel 1 resp. DO 2 or
/DO 2 (i.e. NOT DO 2) of channel 2.
The assignment of the connections is described in the “Connectors” section.
Connection examples are shown in section “Connect Devices” > … >
“Connection Example(s)”.
Inductive loads must be dampened!
For the protection of relay coils and contacts, inductive loads must be dampened
with an effective protection circuit!
Examples of protection circuits can be seen in the section “Protective Circuits for
Contacts of Relay Modules”.
The I/O module incorporates 2 change-over relays connected potential free.
This means on the field side only the connections of the relay contacts are
present. Therefore, both relays can be operated with different voltages.
Because of the potential free contacts also a serial connection of the 2 relays is
possible as well as a serial connection of several relays with block wise
connection of several modules.
The relay contacts L1 resp. L2 can be connected to an external voltage of up to
100 VAC / 30 VDC.
Depending on the relay status the voltage of the middle contact L1 resp. L2 is
switched to the lower contact /DO 1 resp. /DO 2 or to the upper contact DO 1
resp. DO 2. In the OFF state the contacts L1 resp. L2 are switched to the lower
contacts /DO 1 resp. /DO 2.
The internal system voltage is used to trigger the relays.
The switching status of the two relays is indicated via green status LEDs.
The meaning of the LEDs is described in the “Display Elements” section.
