National Instruments FP-DI-301 Digital Input Module
The FP-DI-301 (Part Number: 777518-301) has 16 input channels, a 1 kHz update rate for all channels, and an input ON range from 15 to 30 VDC and an OFF range below 5 VDC. The device has a reverse voltage protection of -30 VDC. The NI FP-DI-301 module includes a hot swappable (plug-and-play) feature that allows you to install it into a powered terminal base without disrupting the operation of the FieldPoint Bank. It offers built-in channel-to-ground isolation for industrial signal protection. This module monitors limit switches, proximity sensors, pushbuttons, and 24 V industrial logic signals.
The module has 24 VDC sinking inputs and is therefore compatible with 24 VDC sourcing-output devices (like sensors) that drive current from a positive supply voltage to a common ground. To avoid false readings, ensure that any connected sourcing device has an OFF-state leakage current of less than 1 mA.
The device has an input impedance of 5 kΩ and consumes 400 mW of power from the network. The National Instruments FP-DI-301 Digital Input Module has an operating temperature of -40 to 70°C. Because this module uses sinking inputs, it must be paired with PNP/sourcing output devices. While the module includes robust channel-to-ground isolation, it is important to note that there is no isolation between the channels. Therefore, if a hazardous voltage is present on any one channel, all channels must be considered hazardous.
The device has green "POWER" and "READY" LEDs that confirm network recognition, as well as 16 individual green numbered LEDs to indicate the ON state of each specific channel. The FP-DI-301 weighs 4.93 oz. The device has a recommended storage temperature range of -55 to 85°C. It is designed to comply with the following electrical safety standards: IEC 61010-1, EN-61010-1, UL 61010-1, and CSA 61010-1.
