140DII33000 Intrinsically Safe Discrete Input Module
Overview The Quantum 140DII33000 Intrinsically Safe Discrete Input module provides safe
power to dry contact closures e.g., push buttons, selector switches, float switches,
flow switches, limit switches, etc., in a hazardous area, and receives the proportional
current to indicate an on/off state. The received current is converted into digital
signals that is transferred to the PLC.
