£141.53
The IMO XBE-DC16B is a 16-point 12/24 V DC digital input expansion module designed for compatible IMO XGB programmable logic controller systems. It provides 16 additional discrete input channels for connecting sensors, switches, push buttons, limit switches and other DC field devices to an XGB automation system.
The XBE-DC16B supports both sinking and sourcing input wiring, with all 16 input points arranged on a single common. Its wide 9.5–30 V DC operating range allows the module to accommodate both nominal 12 V DC and 24 V DC input systems, while photocoupler isolation provides electrical separation between the field inputs and internal PLC circuitry.
Configurable input filtering provides response-time selections from 1–100 ms, allowing the module to be adapted to different signal and noise conditions. Individual LED status indication and removable terminal blocks also simplify installation, commissioning, diagnostics and maintenance in industrial control panels.
The IMO XBE-DC16B provides a practical way to add a further 16 discrete field signals to an XGB PLC system. Its ability to accept both nominal 12 V DC and 24 V DC signals, together with sinking and sourcing wiring support, makes the module adaptable to a broad range of industrial sensors, switches and control devices.
Adjustable response filtering allows the input behaviour to be matched to the application. Faster settings can be selected where rapid signal recognition is important, while longer filtering periods can help suppress unwanted transitions caused by electrical noise or mechanical contact bounce. Individual input LEDs provide immediate visual feedback during commissioning and fault finding.
