Data Sheet
Extension Module Rack 23ET23

Application
The extension board rack 23ET23 is designed to accept up to 19 input/output boards of a RTU560 remote terminal unit. It is interfaced to the communication rack 560CSR01 via the serial RTU560 system
bus. Up to 7 23ET23 expansion board racks can be
connected to one basic board rack.

signal wires is made by the means of crimp clips using snap-in fixings. In addition to the use of prefabricated cables it is also possible to attach individual
wires during commissioning.
DIN- -F connector with cutout
for row 22 - - 32

The extension board rack 23ET23 is installed in a

swing frame cabinet or in a frame with 19 wide supports.

Characteristics
The 19 board rack has a height of 3 HE for single
Euro-card format boards (DIN 41494). There are 21
slots available for the installation of boards.
The power supply unit (NG) has a predefined slot allocated to it.

Allocation of the Slots:

V maximum of 19 peripheral boards (19 slots)
V power supply unit (2 slots)
For the physical interfacing of boards edge connectors of type F (DIN 41612) are used. Rows 2 to 20 of
the edge connectors connect the RTU560 system
bus and are soldered directly to the printed circuit
board. The connection of the process signals is
made via the rows 22 to 32 by the means of sub- connectors. The sub- -connector clips into a cutout
in the edge connector (Fig. 1). The connection of the

This interface technology minimises the number of

cable connections as well as the space required in
the expansion board rack 23ET23.
A monitoring circuit on the expansion board rack
23ET23 checks the supply voltage of the boards
(24 V DC, 5 V DC).
In addition to the process signal connections, the following interface possibilities are located on the rear
side of the printed circuit board:
V interface to the serial peripheral bus
V external power source connections
V status relay contact of monitoring the internal voltages (24 V DC and 5 V DC)
