Baumer 56A4016 Photoelectric Sensor Assembly

Baumer 56A4016 ASIA Sensor Interface Module is a four‑input interface card designed to bring sensor signals onto an AS‑i (ASIA) network, enabling compact, centralized wiring for automation systems. The module is specified as “Sensor Interface Module 4 Input/200mA,” indicating four input channels with a 200 mA rating, and it is marketed under the ASIA 56A4016 designation. This part is used to connect local sensors to a Baumer AS‑i bus, supporting straightforward integration in plant automation where multiple sensors must be monitored or controlled from a single interface unit. Ideal applications include streamlined wiring for proximity sensors, photoelectric sensors, and other standard industrial sensors within an AS‑i deployment, where a compact interface module helps simplify field connections and signal transmission to the master controller. The product is commonly listed by Baumer partners and distributors under the 56A4016 model, confirming its positioning as a four‑input sensor interface solution within the Baumer AS‑i ecosystem.
