Compact

Space is always at a premium— especially when it comes to the machine building

industry.

Of course, this should come as no surprise in a sector where the drive toward

miniaturization is resulting in the use of even more compact components.

Or, to put it another way, every cubic centimeter counts. That is why the housings

used in the XN300 system can accommodate up to20 channels, with push-in

terminal technology and status displays, on a front area of 12.5 x 102 mm and a

height of 72 mm.

Simple

Time is money. The XN300 system has been developed with this in mind, which is

why the installation work for it can be broken down into ideal and efficient steps

that allow for pre-assembly and save a significant amount of time.

This can be seen, for instance, in the system‘s use of plug-in terminals and in how

it makes it possible to conveniently split installation work into two different steps

(putting together a block and then installing it on a mounting rail).

In fact, assembling a functional block and then mounting it as a unit on a rail can

be easily done in record time—and without using any tools. All it takes afterthat is

inserting the necessary wires into the push-in terminals or connecting the appropriate

connectors and just like that, your system is ready to go.
