Product Overview
The Omron DRT2-MD16S is the DRT2-series Smart DeviceNet slave with 8 NPN inputs and 8 NPN outputs on e-CON connectors, manufactured by Omron Corporation. Hengyixin Automation stocks this controller option board in Xiamen and ships within 3-5 business days to most Asian, European, and North American ports.
It mounts on a 35 mm DIN rail next to a DeviceNet master and exposes 8 NPN inputs (24 VDC, 6 mA, 1.5 ms ON/OFF) plus 8 NPN outputs (24 VDC, 0.3 A per point, 2.4 A per common). Communications power 11 to 25 VDC; I/O power 20.4 to 26.4 VDC. Sensor short-circuit detection monitors adjacent input pairs; load short-circuit detection trips at 2.4 A per common.
Smart Slave features track power supply voltage, I/O response time, and operation counters against user-set limits and report to the PLC for preventive maintenance. e-CON connectors accept sensor plugs without tools. For the PNP sibling pick DRT2-MD16S-1. For 16-input only pick DRT2-ID16S. For 16 PNP-output pick DRT2-OD16-1.
Key Features
- DRT2-series Smart DeviceNet slave with 8 NPN inputs (24 VDC positive common) and 8 NPN outputs (24 VDC negative common, 0.3 A per point, 2.4 A per common)
- e-CON connectors accept industry-standard sensor plugs without special tools; 1.5 ms ON/OFF on both inputs and outputs
- Sensor short-circuit detection on adjacent input pairs (IN0/1 through IN14/15), load short-circuit detection at 2.4 A per output common, 500 VAC dielectric
- Smart Slave diagnostics: power supply status, I/O response time, operation counters, on-time monitoring for preventive maintenance
- SKU: DRT2-MD16S
- Series: DRT2-series Smart DeviceNet Slave (DRT2 family)
- I/O: 16 points
Best-Fit Applications
- Conveyor diverter station where 8 photo-eye inputs feed an NS12-TS01B-V2 HMI through a CJ1W-DRM21 DeviceNet master and 8 NPN outputs drive the pneumatic gates
- Semi-automated assembly jig where 8 part-present sensors connect to the e-CON plugs and 8 outputs control pneumatic clamps and indicator lamps
- Spare replacement on a filling machine where the original DRT2-MD16S was lost and the DeviceNet node address (DIP switches) matches the existing master config
Buying Checklist
- Pick the DRT2-MD16S when the DeviceNet cell needs 8 NPN inputs and 8 NPN outputs on e-CON connectors with Smart Slave preventive-maintenance diagnostics.
- Pick the DRT2-MD16S-1 instead when the field devices are PNP (sourcing) instead of NPN (sinking) on the same 8-in / 8-out body.
- Pick the DRT2-ID16S instead when the cell only needs 16 inputs and no outputs on the same e-CON body with Smart Slave diagnostics.

FAQ for DRT2-MD16S
What is the Omron DRT2-MD16S used for?
It is the DRT2-series Smart DeviceNet slave with 8 NPN inputs and 8 NPN outputs on e-CON connectors. Typical uses are conveyor diverter stations, semi-automated assembly jigs, and spare replacement on a filling machine where the DeviceNet node address matches the existing master config.
DRT2-MD16S vs DRT2-MD16S-1 - what is the difference?
Both are DRT2 Smart DeviceNet slaves with 8 inputs and 8 outputs on e-CON connectors. The MD16S is NPN (inputs switch to 0 V; outputs switch the low side of a load). The MD16S-1 is PNP (inputs switch to 24 V; outputs source current to the load). Pick the MD16S for NPN field devices; pick the MD16S-1 for PNP field devices. Output current per common differs: 2.4 A on the MD16S, 1.6 A on the MD16S-1.
How is the DRT2-MD16S wired to sensors and actuators?
With e-CON connectors. Each e-CON plug accepts a 24 VDC photo-eye, prox, or limit-switch lead without special tools or crimping - the sensor cable pushes into the plug and locks. The DeviceNet trunk connects via the M2 comm connector on the side. Set the node address (0 to 63) with the on-board DIP switches before powering the DeviceNet trunk.
