Energy Storage	330 µF at 35V

GE DS200IOEAG1A DS200IOEAG1ADB stores energy using two electrolytic capacitors. Together, they provide 330 µF at 35V rating for output hold-up. This energy storage maintains digital outputs during 30 millisecond power interruptions. Therefore, the board prevents false switching in industrial environments.

Design and Integration

Both the GE DS200IOEAG1A and DS200IOEAG1ADB versions share identical I/O circuitry. These boards use six-layer PCB construction with isolated I/O banks for noise immunity. Consequently, the GE DS200IOEAG1A DS200IOEAG1ADB operates reliably from -10°C to +55°C ambient temperature.

For installation, you need M3 screws for the four mounting holes. The board draws 350 mA typical current from the 24V DC supply. Each digital output includes overcurrent protection. We recommend using separate cable trays for input and output wiring.

Practical Application

This I/O expansion board adds additional field connections to a drive or turbine controller. It reads digital and analog signals from remote sensors. The GE DS200IOEAG1A DS200IOEAG1ADB then sends output commands to actuators and indicators. Therefore, it expands I/O capacity for GE industrial control systems.
