GE IC200ALG260A IC200ALG260B Analog Input Module

Product Overview

The GE Fanuc IC200ALG260A is an 8-channel analog input module designed for VersaMax PLC systems. It accepts both voltage and current signals, converting them into precise digital values for processing. Moreover, its 12-bit resolution ensures accurate measurement of temperature, pressure, flow, and other continuous industrial variables. The module’s compact design allows easy integration into standard VersaMax I/O slots while maintaining reliable performance in harsh industrial environments. Additionally, factory calibration minimizes setup time, enabling faster deployment and reduced maintenance.

Key Features & Functional Highlights

• Eight Analog Inputs: Supports single-ended voltage or current signals for versatile sensor integration.

• High Resolution: 12-bit resolution delivers precise measurement and reliable data acquisition.

• Flexible Input Ranges: Accepts voltage (-10 to +10 VDC or 0 to 10 VDC) and current (4–20 mA) signals.

• Fast Response: Module updates each channel in 0.4 ms, with a 5 ms input filter response for stable readings.

• Optical Isolation: Provides 250 VAC continuous isolation and 1500 VAC for one minute to protect logic circuits.
