Information
- B&R X20DO4529 gives the control application access to four changeover circuits while keeping each channel electrically isolated. Its relay contacts, external suppression and terminal voltage class must be selected together for the connected actuators.
Nominal loads: 1 A at 30 VDC or 0.5 A at 115 VAC
Output mapping: Four individual bits or one packed USINT
Nominal output current is 1 A at 30 VDC or 0.5 A at 115 VAC, with maximum switching capacity of 30 W or 62.5 VA. Contact resistance is 75 mΩ under the 6 VDC / 1 A test condition. Inrush current is limited to 2 A per channel. There is no internal suppression, so AC loads require an RC network or VDR and DC loads require a reverse diode, RC network or VDR as appropriate.
The minimum bus cycle and I/O update time are 100 µs, while relay switching delay is up to 4 ms in either direction. The output state reaches the channels with a fixed offset below 60 µs relative to SyncOut; that bus timing does not remove the mechanical relay delay. Standard function model 0 supports individual output bits or a packed USINT value from 0 to 15.

Application scope: Use changeover contacts for discrete loads within the DC or AC switching envelope. Observe the common terminal voltage-class rule even though each relay channel is isolated.
DC auxiliary switching
Operate suitable DC loads up to the specified contact rating, with external transient suppression.115 VAC control circuits
Use the changeover relay outputs for the selected AC control-voltage class and load rating.Normally closed indication
The NC and COM contacts support an engineered de-energized contact path; validate the application-specific fail state.Packed digital mapping
Function model 0 can expose the four output states as individual bits or a single USINT for the approved I/O map.
Use mains voltage or SELV on the terminal block, never a mixture.
The terminal block must not be inserted or removed while voltage is applied.
No internal protective circuit is provided; fit the appropriate AC or DC load protection.
Respect the voltage/current envelope, 2 A inrush limit and maximum switching power.
Do not treat the 100 µs bus update as the contact switching time.
Test NC, COM and NO behavior for each affected channel before releasing its actuator.

Technical notes
Engineering relationship: Electrical channel isolation does not permit mains and SELV voltage classes to be mixed on the terminal block. Isolate external actuator power before connecting or removing the terminal block.
Installation boundary: A 100 µs bus update and a SyncOut offset below 60 µs describe data transfer. The relay contact itself has an ON/OFF switching delay up to 4 ms.
Technical basis: B&R X20DO4529 Data Sheet, V3.20, September 2024. Values apply to X20DO4529 relay hardware under the stated load and mounting conditions. Bus cycle timing and mechanical contact response are separate specifications.
FAQ View All FAQ
-
May X20DO4529 switch 115 VAC on one channel and SELV on another?No. Voltage classes must not be mixed on the terminal block. Use either the mains-voltage class or safety extra-low voltage, even though the individual channels are isolated.
-
Why is the 100 µs cycle of X20DO4529 not its relay response time?The cycle specifies communication and I/O updating. Mechanical contact switching can take up to 4 ms in either direction, so a fast bus cycle does not create microsecond relay operation.
-
Which protection components are needed when X20DO4529 drives inductive loads?There is no internal suppression. AC loads require an RC combination or VDR; DC loads can use an inverse diode, RC combination or VDR appropriate to the circuit.
-
How are the four output states packed by X20DO4529?With packed outputs enabled in standard function model 0, a USINT value from 0 to 15 uses bits 0–3 for channels 1–4. Otherwise the channels are individual data points.
-
Can the terminal block of X20DO4529 be disconnected with external load voltage present?No. Voltage may be applied only while the terminal block is connected. Remove the external supply before inserting or removing it.
-
What happens to the temperature limit when X20DO4529 is mounted vertically?The operating range changes from -25 to +60 °C for horizontal mounting to -25 to +50 °C for vertical mounting. Additional altitude derating applies above 2000 m.
-
Which separate connection parts are required for X20DO4529?Use an X20TB12 terminal block and the supported X20BM11 or X20BM15 bus module. These are separate accessories and must match the installed X20 configuration.
-
Does the 2 A inrush limit of X20DO4529 permit a continuous 2 A load?No. The nominal contact ratings remain 1 A at 30 VDC or 0.5 A at 115 VAC. The 2 A value is the per-channel inrush limit, not a continuous output rating.
