Key Features
- High-Density Design: 16 inputs in single-slot 30mm module.
- Diagnostic LEDs: Per-channel status (green = ON, red = fault).
- Overvoltage Protection: 50V continuous / 60V transient.
- Hot Swappable: Supports live module replacement.
- Wide Voltage Tolerance: Operates down to 19.2V DC.
Function & Role
- Sensor Interface: Connects proximity switches, push buttons, limit switches.
- Machine State Monitoring: Detects equipment status for PLC logic.
- Safety Interlocking: Non-safety rated but used in safety circuits with relays.

Wiring Configuration
SINKING INPUTS:
FIELD DEVICE (+) → IN0–IN15
FIELD DEVICE (-) → COM (0V)
Critical Notes
- Polarity: Strictly sinking-only – external 24V DC supply must connect (+) to field devices.
- Derating: No derating required within full temp range (-40°C to +70°C).
- Safety Limitation: Not SIL-rated – use with safety relays for emergency circuits.
- Legacy Support: Compatible with GE Series 90-30 PLCs via adapters.
