Product Description

Digital Input (DI) modules are expansion components for programmable logic controllers (PLCs). They are designed to monitor the status of various switches, sensors, and contacts. Each module consists of multiple channels that optically isolate the high-voltage or high-current signals of the factory floor from the sensitive internal logic of the controller, ensuring safe and reliable data acquisition.

Product Parameters

The technical specifications of these modules ensure they can handle a variety of industrial signal types:

• Number of Channels: Modules are available in various densities, typically offering 8, 16, or 32 input points per module.

• Input Voltage: Supports standard industrial levels, most commonly 24V DC, but also high-voltage AC variants for specific infrastructure needs.

• Input Delay: Features adjustable hardware filter times to debounce signals and prevent false triggering from mechanical contact chatter.

• Isolation: High-rated galvanic isolation between the input channels and the backplane bus to protect the CPU from electrical surges.

• Diagnostics: Integrated LED indicators for per-channel status and system-level error reporting via the software interface.

Product Advantages

Using these modules provides several key benefits for system design and operation:

• High Density: The compact design allows for a large number of inputs in a small footprint, reducing the overall size of the control cabinet.

• Robustness: Built to withstand vibration, electrostatic discharge, and electromagnetic interference typical of industrial settings.

• Ease of Wiring: Features standardized connector systems that simplify the installation process and reduce the risk of wiring errors.

• Seamless Integration: Fully compatible with the TIA Portal engineering framework, enabling “drag-and-drop” configuration and comprehensive diagnostic monitoring.

Usage Precautions

To maintain system integrity, users should observe the following guidelines:

• Potential Groups: Pay close attention to the grouping of inputs and the requirement for external power supplies or common ground connections.

• Signal Polarity: Ensure that the wiring follows the correct sourcing or sinking configuration as specified by the module type.

• Shielding and Separation: Route signal cables away from high-power motor leads to avoid induced noise that could be misinterpreted as a logical “high.”

• Hot Swapping: Check the specific hardware series to determine if modules can be replaced while the system is under power without causing a CPU fault.

Product Applications

Digital input modules are utilized anywhere a binary state needs to be monitored:

• Machine Monitoring: Tracking the position of mechanical parts using limit switches or proximity sensors.

• Process Control: Receiving signals from pressure switches, flow switches, or level sensors to trigger automated sequences.

• Operator Interaction: Interface with pushbuttons, selector switches, and emergency stop circuits on control panels.

• Quality Assurance: Detecting the presence or absence of parts on a conveyor line for counting or sorting purposes.
