I/O modules

The GE DS200TCQAG1B DS200TCQAG1B Analog I/O Board handles both input and output signals efficiently. This unit weighs 0.45 kg and measures 15.2 cm x 10.1 cm x 3.5 cm. It provides eight analog input channels and four analog output channels. The board contains one main processor and twelve signal conditioning circuits. For energy storage, it includes three 150µF tantalum capacitors. Consequently, the GE DS200TCQAG1B maintains stable operation during momentary power dips.

Technical Specifications

The table below lists all verified parameters for the GE DS200TCQAG1B. Use this data for your system integration planning.

Analog Input Features

The eight input channels each use a 16-bit ADC for high accuracy. The GE DS200TCQAG1B accepts either 0 to 10V or ±10V signals. Therefore, you can configure each input independently. The input impedance reaches 1 MΩ for minimal signal loading. Thus, this board will not distort signals from high-impedance sensors.

Analog Output Features

The four output channels each provide 0 to 10V DC signals. Each output uses a 14-bit DAC for smooth voltage control. The GE DS200TCQAG1B drives up to 10 mA per output channel. Consequently, it can operate most analog actuators directly. The settling time for any output change stays under 3 milliseconds.

Power and Energy Storage

This analog I/O board requires a 5V DC supply at 400 mA. Additionally, it needs a separate 24V DC supply at 100 mA for outputs. Therefore, the total power consumption equals 4.4W. The three 150µF capacitors provide 10 milliseconds of hold-up time. This short backup protects critical signal values during voltage sags.

Installation and Connectivity

You can mount the GE DS200TCQAG1B on a standard DIN rail. Alternatively, secure it with M4 screws through its mounting holes. The two 37-pin D-sub connectors handle all input and output wiring. For best performance, use shielded cables for all analog signals. The GE DS200TCQAG1B works seamlessly with the RMS-TSG-TZ-C static trip unit.

Environmental Durability

This analog I/O board operates reliably from -20°C to +65°C. It also withstands 95% relative humidity without condensation. The board survives vibration up to 2g from 10 to 500 Hz. Therefore, the GE DS200TCQAG1B suits most industrial automation systems perfectly.
