SICK FX3-XTIO84002 1044125 Flexi Soft Safety I/O Module 8IN/4OUT PL e

SICK FX3-XTIO84002 is an I/O extension module for the Flexi Soft modular safety controller system. It provides 8 safe inputs and 4 safe PNP semiconductor outputs with cross-circuit monitoring, short-circuit protection, and 2 test outputs. Configured via Flexi Soft Designer software, it expands the safety I/O capacity of a Flexi Soft system without additional programming or licensing overhead. Suitable for scalable safety applications in industrial automation and material handling.

System Integration:

• This module is part of the SICK Flexi Soft safety controller platform.

• A Flexi Soft system requires a main module (e.g., FX3‑CPU000000, FX3‑CPU130002) and a system plug (FX3‑MPL000001) for configuration storage.

• Up to 12 expansion modules can be added to a single Flexi Soft station, increasing the system's I/O capacity.

• Configuration is performed offline using Flexi Soft Designer software.

• The module supports Flexi Loop technology, enabling safe series connection of sensors up to 2 A, with test pulses for diagnostics and easy maintenance.

• The I/O module communicates with the main CPU module via the internal FLEX BUS+, which distributes power, diagnostic data, and safety control signals.
