Product Description

The IFM AC5253 is an AS-Interface (AS-i) AirBox module designed to integrate pneumatic control into automation systems. It features four digital PNP inputs and two bistable 5/2-way pneumatic outputs, which can be configured as normally open or normally closed. The module requires an additional 24 V DC supply for the pneumatic outputs and offers quick mounting technology for easy installation. With a compact design and robust construction, it is suitable for applications in industrial automation where space and efficiency are critical.
