The General Electric IC200MDL240 is a 16-point discrete AC input module designed for the VersaMax PLC system. This module provides reliable signal acquisition for industrial automation applications, operating at a nominal 120V AC. It features a positive logic (sourcing) configuration, where input devices are connected between the input terminal and the common terminal.

Features

• 16 discrete AC input points organized into two groups of eight.
• Supports a wide input voltage range of 0-132 VAC.
• Integrated LED status indicators for point-level monitoring and backplane power verification.
• Compact, modular design suitable for DIN-rail mounting.
• High isolation ratings: 250 VAC continuous and 1500 VAC for 1 minute.
• Compatible with VersaMax CPU and Network Interface Units (NIU).

Applications

• Packaging and bottling machinery control.
• Material handling systems, including conveyors and sorters.
• Water and wastewater treatment process monitoring.
• Distributed I/O nodes in energy and oil/gas facilities.
• General industrial assembly and quality control feedback.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

• Inspect the module for physical damage prior to installation.
• The module supports both horizontal and vertical DIN-rail mounting. Ensure proper ventilation in the enclosure.
• Field devices must be wired between the input terminal and the group common.
• Use caution during hot insertion; ensure the backplane is stable to prevent disruption to other modules on the rack.
• Verify backplane power status via the onboard LED indicators after installation.

FAQs

What is the IC200MDL240?

It is a 16-point, 120V AC discrete input module for the GE VersaMax series, utilizing positive logic (sourcing) to interface with field devices like limit switches and sensors.

Does this module require external power?

While the module draws its internal logic power from the backplane, the connected field devices require an external 120V AC source to provide the input signals.

What is the isolation rating of this module?

The module provides 1500 VAC isolation for 1 minute and 250 VAC continuous isolation between user inputs and logic/frame ground.
