G6I-D24A

Description

32-point DC input module for 12/24 VDC systems, supporting sink and source wiring styles. Provides maximum discrete input density for the G6 family.

The Polar Energy Assessment:

The G6I-D24A is a high-density DC input module delivering 32 channels in a single card. It supports both sink and source wiring on applicable revisions and includes photocoupler isolation per channel. This module is used where maximum digital input density is required in a limited rack footprint. Note that some suppliers list the G6I-D24A as discontinued or legacy, so verify availability if procurement matters.

Pros

• Very high channel density: 32 discrete inputs in one module.
• Sink/source flexibility (on supported variants) gives wiring options.
• Photocoupler isolation per LS standard for input modules.

Limitations

• Large terminal punch makes wiring dense and slightly harder to manage.
• Check power/COM current limits; many points share commons that can be exceeded if mis-wired.

Typical use cases

• High-density sensor farms, large conveyor arrays, or retrofit projects where conserving I/O slots is critical.
