1. Overview

The Y301-220/222 are high-power serial I/O expansion modules that combine opto-isolated digital inputs, 10 A relay outputs, and, on the Y301-222, dual analog inputs for 0-10 V or 4-20 mA sensing.

Both models support Modbus RTU over RS485, RS232, or TTL and can be integrated with PLCs, SCADA systems, and industrial gateways.

ModelDigital InputDigital OutputAnalog InputTypical Role
Y301-22022 x SPDT-Equipment monitoring and control
Y301-22222 x SPDT2 (0-10 V / 4-20 mA)Process monitoring and control

Analog input is available on the Y301-222 only.

5.2 Wiring Guidelines

  • Use 20-16 AWG power wiring with a 1 A upstream fuse.
  • For dry-contact DI, bridge COM+ to the target DI through the external contact.
  • For wet-contact DI, connect the external 5-36 V reference to COM-.
  • For relay outputs driving inductive loads, add an RC snubber for AC loads or a flyback diode for DC loads.
  • For Y301-222 analog input wiring, connect the source directly in voltage mode and use the current loop terminals in current mode.
  • For RS485, use shielded twisted pair, terminate both ends with 120 ohm resistors, and keep a common reference ground.
