Reddy (Customer) asked a question.
Can we use C0-16CDD2 with existing PLC Module to provide Isolation between PLC and Product?
We are the Gripper Manufacturer company. Our Gripper will have 2 Digital inputs ( Open/ close) and 4 Digital Outputs (Sensor Outputs). Operating voltage of gripper is 24VDC. We are using PLC communication to control the Gripper functionality. So, one of our costumer is asking Isolation between the PLC control unit and the Gripper. we found the C0-16CDD2 while doing little research on isolated I/O module to integrate on the same PLC module cabinet. Can we use this ( C0-16CDD2)
for our application?
Isolation Boundaries are discussed in the User Manual Page 3-27

Note the second drawing which recommends using a second isolated power supply.
The module pinout and equivalent circuits are shown on the Tech Specs:
