The ABB 2TLA022316R2000 is an Interbus module designed to interface with two or four muting sensors. It sits in the Data Control subcategory under Data Communications, which means it handles the logic and signal routing between muting sensors and a safety or automation controller on an Interbus network.
What It Connects To
The module is an Interbus node, so it mounts inside a control panel and connects to the Interbus master via the network cable. The muting sensors — typically used in safety light curtain applications where a pallet or workpiece needs to pass through the guarded zone without triggering a stop — wire into this module's inputs. The module then communicates the muting status to the safety controller over the Interbus network.
