Part Number: IC200MDL631

The IC200MDL631 is a discrete input module designed by GE Fanuc specifically for the Versamax series of control systems. This module features eight discrete remote inputs, capable of accommodating both positive and negative logic configurations. Each input receives current from an external device and returns current to the common return terminal, ensuring reliable signal processing. Power for the IC200MDL631 is supplied via the backplane, relying on the CPU or Network Interface Unit (NIU) to execute all operational processes. The module includes individual green LEDs that provide real-time status indications for each input point, while a dedicated OK LED signals the presence of backplane power. Notably, derating is not necessary for this 8-point module in any orientation, nor for 16-point modules operating at 125 Volts DC. However, when 16-point modules are subjected to 150 Volts DC, the allowable simultaneous active points may vary based on factors such as ambient temperature and mounting conditions. The IC200MDL631 also implements parity bits for the data it generates, enhancing data integrity during communication with input-output components. The module offers a basic input on/off response time of 0.5 ms, although specific applications may require additional filtering to mitigate interference from noise spikes or switch bounce.
