Product Description
  • The VJ4 discrete control/signal module provides a means for the customer to control the Tool Changer and provide power to downstream I/O.
  • The VJ4 Master comes equipped with four (4) M12, 5-Pin connectors used for interfacing with a customer-supplied Interbus I/O module. These connections allow the customer to monitor Tool Changer Locked, Unlocked, and RTL (Ready-To-Lock) proximity sensor inputs, as well as to control the Tool Changer valve Latch and Unlatch functions.
  • The VJ4 control module was specifically designed to accommodate a Phoenix Contact Rugged Line Digital Input/Output Module, such as model IBS RL 24 DIO 8/8/8-R-LK.
  • Power for downstream Interbus devices is provided to the Master from the Interbus I/O module via an M23 male thread, 6-Pin connector.
  • The VJ4 Master comes equipped with an Arc Prevention circuit that automatically turns off US1 and US2 power during coupling and uncoupling of the Tool, when arcing is most likely to occur.
  • An interface is also provided on the Master module for support of an integrated solenoid valve (DC Voltage). The integrated valve is supplied as part of the valve adapter block, 9121-Jxx-M.
  • VJ4 modules are outfitted with patented Tool Stand Interlock (TSI) technology. The TSI circuit is designed to allow Tool Changer release ONLY when the Tool is in the stand or storage location.
