I/O input module · 8 digital inputs, 24 V DC, SmartWire-DT slave · Eaton PEU5E-SWD-8DX

What this product is for

This module adds 8 digital inputs to an Eaton SmartWire-DT system for machine control, automation panels, and sensor signal collection. It is used where field input status needs to be brought into a SmartWire-DT network without conventional point-to-point wiring.

Use for

Use for 24 V DC digital input signals from switches, sensors, and other discrete field devices in industrial control systems. Commonly installed on 35 mm DIN rail or mounted directly in control enclosures.

Avoid for

Avoid using this module where IP67 washdown protection is required, where onboard digital outputs are needed, or where the application falls outside the SmartWire-DT platform. This is an IP20 in-panel module intended for protected enclosure installation.

Best for

Best for OEM panels, machine retrofits, and distributed control layouts using Eaton SmartWire-DT. It suits applications where electricians and panel builders want to reduce conventional control wiring and keep input status visible with onboard LEDs.

Installed in

Typically installed in industrial control panels, machinery cabinets, and automation enclosures. The housing is approximately 102 mm x 90 mm x 35 mm (about 4.0 in x 3.5 in x 1.4 in).

Why this product exists

This module exists to bring discrete field inputs into the SmartWire-DT network in a compact in-panel format. Compared with traditional hardwired input marshalling, SmartWire-DT is designed to simplify machine wiring and network field signals through a common system architecture.

Compared with similar products

Choose this model when you need 8 digital inputs only. If the application also requires outputs, Eaton offers other SmartWire-DT I/O variants with mixed or output-capable channel configurations. This unit is intended specifically for digital input collection on 24 V DC systems.
