The module has sixteen (16) channels of positive or source inputs that accept 120 VAC input signal voltages with a signal range of 0-132 VAC, 47-63 Hz, and a minimum user input current of 7 mA per point.The module has a backplane 5VDC output current of 110 mA.

About the IC200MDL240

The IC200MDL240 is a discrete input module from the VersaMax I/O platform formerly manufactured by GE Intelligent Platforms and now manufactured by Emerson Automation. The module is a sixteen (16) point discrete input module that supports forward logic or source wiring configurations. It can be used to connect field and electrical devices that provide binary or on/off signal states, such as auxiliary contacts, proximity sensors, pushbutton devices, limit switches, and similar devices.

This 16-point module accepts an input signal voltage range of 0-132 VAC, 47-63 Hz, with a nominal signal voltage of 120 VAC and a minimum on-state current of 7 mA.The input channels are divided into two (2) groups of eight (8) channels each with a dedicated common channel. Its group-to-group isolation is rated at 250 VAC for 1 minute and 1500 VAC. Similarly, the module's optical isolation (logically isolated user inputs) as well as rack ground isolation are rated at 1500 VAC (1 minute) and 250 VAC (continuous).

The turn-on response time for each channel is 1 cycle with a minimum of 2 ms, while the turn-off response time is 2 ms. The turn-on state voltage is 70-132 VAC, and the turn-off state voltage range is 0-40 VAC. In addition, the turn-on state current is a minimum of 7 mA, while the turn-off state current is a maximum of 1.5 mA.

The IC200MDL240 is a DIN-rail mount type that supports both horizontal and vertical orientations. When the module is mounted vertically, there is no performance derating, but there is a 132 VAC derating.

The GE Fanuc IC200MDL240 Versamax Discrete Input Module is a 16-point discrete input module.The IC200MDL240 Input Module accepts AC input signals from sensors, pushbuttons, and switches in a 2-state signal format (ON/OFF or OFF/OFF) and sends them in a 16-bit discrete data format to the CPU Module or NIU Module for intelligent processing. The IC200MDL240 input module offers a compact modular design that provides application flexibility and saves wiring and engineering costs.The IC200MDL240 input module is mounted on an I/O carrier base with management unit functionality, which supports hot module insertion and removal as well as simplified field wiring.

The IC200MDL240 Input Module provides 16 discrete source inputs in two banks of 8. The IC200MDL240 Input Module does not have point-to-point isolation, but does have 250-volt AC continuous isolation between each bank. the IC200MDL240 Input Module has a 120-volt AC rating and a 0 to 132-volt AC input range. the IC200MDL240 Input Module has a 70 to 132 volt AC on-state range and a 0 to 20 volt AC short-off-state range. The module draws all operating power from the baseboard power supply. It has a maximum baseboard current draw of 110 milliamps at 5 volts and a minimum on-state rating of 5 milliamps.The IC200MDL240 Input Module has an impedance rating of 8.6 kilohms at 60 Hz.The IC200MDL240 Input Module has 16 labelled LEDs to indicate status updates at each input point, and a green LED to indicate the backplane status.
