Foty Posts: 5 Rating: (0)	Hello, Could I use a Digital output to drive an inductive load? Presently I'm using relay output cards and I would like to know if I could use digital output cards to drive a hydraulic valve in 24 vdc that the cusumption is 1.25 A. Without adding anything. Thank you

In IK PI Catalog (www.siemens.com/simatic/printmaterial chapter6), you can see the switching frequency for resistive and inductive loads.

Foty Posts: 5 Rating: (0)	To add to my question, I would like know if I should protect my output relay cards with diods, and do the same for the digital output card. I have been told that I would need to put some, but nowhere is it indicated in the pdf. Thank you

Even if your special application or equipment requires a highest safety, you can also protect your digital output card. Kind regards
