Product Parameters

Advantages and Features

1. Integrated I/O Design: GE DS200ADGIH1AAA combines 16 digital input and 16 digital output channels in a single module, eliminating the need for separate input and output modules. This simplifies system architecture, reduces installation space, and lowers overall integration costs for complex control systems.
2. Fast Response Performance: With an input response time of ≤1ms and output response time of ≤2ms, the module can quickly capture on-site signal changes and execute control commands, meeting the real-time requirements of high-speed production lines and precision control scenarios.
3. Strong Load-Driving Capacity: Each output channel supports a maximum current of 2A, and the total output current reaches 15A, enabling direct driving of high-load devices such as solenoid valves, small motors, and relays without additional power amplifiers.
4. Comprehensive Protection Mechanisms: Equipped with overcurrent, short-circuit, reverse polarity, and ESD protection, GE DS200ADGIH1AAA effectively safeguards the module and downstream equipment from damage caused by wiring errors, overloads, or electrical surges, enhancing system operational safety.
5. Seamless System Compatibility: Tailor-made for GE’s Mark VIe control system, the module requires no custom drivers. It can be quickly configured and commissioned via GE’s dedicated programming software, ensuring smooth integration with existing control networks and reducing project cycles.
6. Intuitive Maintenance Experience: Independent activity indicators for each input and output channel, combined with a centralized fault alarm indicator, allow on-site technicians to quickly locate faulty channels. The built-in diagnostic function logs fault information, further simplifying troubleshooting and minimizing downtime.
7. Extreme Environmental Adaptability: Operating within a temperature range of -40°C to +70°C, the module performs stably in harsh conditions such as high cold, high temperature, and high humidity, making it suitable for automation projects in diverse geographical locations and extreme working environments.

Selection Suggestions and Precautions

Selection Suggestions

1. For projects using GE Mark VIe or Mark VI control systems that require integrated digital I/O functions, GE DS200ADGIH1AAA is the optimal choice. Its 16-in/16-out configuration and perfect compatibility ensure stable system operation and simplified integration.
2. Prioritize this module for industries with harsh operating environments (e.g., offshore oil platforms, metallurgical plants) or high requirements for real-time control (e.g., power generation, high-speed production lines). Its fast response speed, robust protection, and wide temperature range meet the demands of extreme working conditions.
3. For retrofitting legacy GE PLC systems or expanding I/O capacity, GE DS200ADGIH1AAA is a cost-effective solution. It integrates seamlessly with existing hardware and software, avoiding the need for full system replacement.

Precautions

1. Install the module securely on a 35mm DIN rail and keep it away from high-power inverters, motors, and other strong electromagnetic interference sources. Use shielded cables for signal wiring and separate them from power cables by at least 30cm to reduce interference.
2. Follow the product manual strictly for wiring, distinguishing between input/output channels and ensuring correct polarity of power and signal lines. Avoid reverse polarity or short circuits, which may damage the module or connected devices.
3. Ensure the operating voltage is within the 20.4V DC – 28.8V DC range. Use a stable power supply with surge protection to prevent voltage fluctuations from affecting module performance.
4. Do not exceed the single-channel or total output current limits. Distribute loads evenly across output channels to avoid overheating and ensure long-term stable operation.
5. Conduct regular inspections of the module’s status indicators and wiring terminals. Clean dust from the module periodically and use the built-in diagnostic function to check for channel faults, addressing issues promptly to prevent system downtime.
6. Store the module in a dry, well-ventilated, and vibration-free environment. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and corrosive gases. Back up configuration parameters before replacing the module to ensure seamless system integration.
