The ZIPLink wiring solution has several specialized modules including communication adapters, feedthrough, and distribution modules as well as relay and transorb modules. ZIPLink communication cables are also available.
ZIPLink Specialty Modules & Cables
Category Selection
Cut your PLC wiring time from hours down to minutes with ZipLink modules and cables!
The ZIPLink system eliminates the normally tedious process of wiring programmable logic controller I/O to terminal blocks.
- Simply plug one end of a ZIPLink cable into a DirectLOGIC I/O module or CLICK CPU/I/O module and the other end into a ZIPLink connector module. It's that easy.
- ZIPLinks are also used for AutomationDirect GS/DuraPulse/SureServo AC Drive wiring solutions.
- ZIPLinks use half the space, at a fraction of the total cost of terminal blocks.
- ZIPLink cables and modules are available in a variety of styles to suit your needs.
ZIPLink Legacy to New Generation Conversion Guide
This pdf document (700 KB) will help in converting from the legacy ZIPLink cable components to the new generation of ZIPLink cables and wiring solutions. You will need to know the part number of the legacy ZIPLink module you are using now and the PLC I/O module that you are connecting to before you proceed
Available ZIPLink specialty modules include:
24VDC Stand-Alone Relay Modules
Single and four-socket 24 VDC stand-alone relay modules use plug-in relays for switching high current (10A) loads. Relays are included with the ZIPLink modules.
- ZL-RLS1-24
- ZL-RLS4-24
120VAC Stand-Alone Relay Modules
AC-powered stand-alone relay modules provide isolation, switch high current (10A) loads and are offered in single or 4-socket modules. Relays are included with the modules.
- ZL-RLS1-120
- ZL-RLS4-120
24VDC and 120VAC Transorb Modules
ZIPLink transorb diode modules are 8-channel devices used to suppress counterelectromotive force (CEMF) generated by switching inductive loads, which can cause unexpected PLC system shutdowns.
- ZL-TSD8-24
- ZL-TSD8-120
D-Sub Feedthrough Modules
Available in 9-pin, 15-pin or 25-pin versions; these ZIPLink connector modules provide a fast, convenient method of transitioning between DSub connectors and field wiring through the use of screw terminals.
- ZL-RTB-DB09
- ZL-RTB-DB15
- ZL-RTB-DB25
RJ12 and RJ45 Feedthrough Modules
The ZIPLink RJ12 and RJ45 feedthrough modules provide convenient break-out of wiring to terminal blocks.
- ZL-RTB-RJ12
- ZL-RTB-RJ45
Communications Port Adapters
These ZIPLink communication adapters have screw terminal connections for the DL06 PLC, D2-250-1 and D2-260 CPUs. The ZL-CMA15L adapter offers transmit and receive LEDs, a jumper selectable network termination resistor, and circuit surge protection.
- ZL-CMA15
- ZL-CMA15L
Communication Distribution Modules
The ZIPLink RJ12 multi-port distribution modules allow RS485 multi-drop connections. Uses include serial network multi-drop to GS, DuraPulse, and SureServo AC drives; DirectLOGIC and CLICK PLCs.
- ZL-CDM-RJ12X4
- ZL-CDM-RJ12X10
Accessories
Replacement relays are offered with a 24VDC coil or 120VAC coil and are for use with the ZIPLink relay modules. (Sold in packages of 4).
- ZL-RELAY-24X4
- ZL-RELAY-120X4
