GE IC200MDL241 Discrete Input Module Overview

The GE IC200MDL241 discrete input module is a versatile component for Versamax I/O and control systems. It offers 16 non-isolated inputs organized in two isolated groups of eight channels each. Operating at 240 Volts AC, this module draws 110 milliamps from the backplane and requires no external power supply. Engineers and technicians value its compact design and support for hot swapping, which simplifies field wiring and maintenance.

Key Specifications

  • Inputs: 16 discrete inputs (2 groups of 8)
  • Operating Voltage: 240 Volts AC (nominal), range 0–264 VAC
  • On‑State Voltage Range: 155–264 VAC
  • Off‑State Voltage Range: 0–40 VAC
  • Backplane Current: 110 milliamps maximum at 5.0 VDC
  • Maximum Response Time (On): 1 cycle
  • Group Isolation: 1500 Volts for 1 minute between groups
  • Indicators: 16 individually numbered LEDs plus one backplane LED
  • Dimensions: 110 x 66.8 x 50.0 mm (4.3 x 2.63 x 1.9 inches)

Features and Benefits

The GE IC200MDL241 receives signals from pushbuttons, sensors, switches, and other AC input devices. It converts these two‑state (on/off) signals into 16 bits of discrete input data for the CPU. The module mounts on a DIN‑rail‑supported I/O carrier and uses snap‑in terminals for quick wiring. Additionally, the hot‑swap capability means you can replace the module without disconnecting field wiring, reducing downtime. Each input group has 1500 Volts of isolation for one minute, which enhances safety in industrial environments.

Applications and Compatibility

This module is designed specifically for Versamax I/O carriers. It works with any compatible Versamax CPU and backplane. Typical applications include monitoring limit switches, proximity sensors, and pushbuttons in manufacturing lines, packaging machines, and material handling systems. The compact footprint (just over four inches tall) makes it suitable for control panels with limited space. Because the module draws all power from the backplane, installation is straightforward: simply snap it onto the carrier and connect the inputs.

In summary, the GE IC200MDL241 offers reliable 16‑point AC input handling with group isolation and clear LED status indication. Its straightforward installation and hot‑swap support make it a practical choice for automation engineers seeking a cost‑effective discrete input solution for Versamax systems.
