The Pepperl + Fuchs VAA-4EA-KF2-ZE/E2 is a sophisticated AS-Interface sensor/actuator module designed for seamless integration into industrial automation systems. This cabinet module boasts four PNP inputs and four electronic outputs, offering a versatile solution for monitoring and controlling various processes within a manufacturing environment.
Crafted with a focus on durability and ease of use, the module features a housing with removable, coded terminals that simplify installation and maintenance. The AS-Interface connection is facilitated through a Power Rail, streamlining the setup process and ensuring reliable communication.
The module is capable of handling outputs loadable up to 8 A per module, making it suitable for a range of applications. It supports both 2- and 3-wire sensors, providing flexibility in connecting different types of sensors to the system. Additionally, the module includes an addressing jack for straightforward configuration.
One of the standout features of the VAA-4EA-KF2-ZE/E2 is its communication monitoring capability, which ensures that outputs are turned off in the event of a communication interruption, enhancing the safety and reliability of the system. The power supply for the outputs is derived from an external auxiliary voltage, while the inputs are powered directly from the module.
The module's function display includes indicators for bus status, external auxiliary voltage, and the status of inputs and outputs, offering at-a-glance diagnostics that aid in troubleshooting and system checks.
Designed to be mounted on a 35 mm DIN Rail in accordance with EN 50022 standards, the VAA-4EA-KF2-ZE/E2 integrates effortlessly into existing setups, making it a convenient addition to any control cabinet. Its robust construction and IP20 degree of protection ensure that it is well-suited for industrial environments where reliability and precision are paramount.
Overall, the Pepperl + Fuchs VAA-4EA-KF2-ZE/E2 module is an essential component for any automated system requiring a compact, efficient, and reliable means of sensor and actuator integration.

Thumbs up to Rob for helping out with an urgent requirement we had on a Friday afternoon. The part we wanted was over in Europe and Rob went out of his way to get it ordered and on site here for the following Tuesday.City Bearings
Absolutely fantastic service. Rob was very helpful. Great communication. Requested part was shipped in no time.Konrad Eliaszuk
Extremely Helpful. Shipped me a replacement unit next day and i was up and running within 24 hours. Replacement new from machinery manufacturers was on a 7 day lead time.Sean Conlin
Found the part we needed at the best price. Spoke to Rob to make sure the part was actually in stock, as many companies don't actually have the part available to ship. It was in stock ready and the part was checked and shipped and received within a couple of days from their German stock. Would definitely use again and recommend.Chris Sentance
