GJV3075613R0202 Remote Binary Input Unit

The 07DI93-I Remote Binary Input Unit, manufactured by ABB, is an essential part of the ABB Advant Controller 31 and ABB Advant OCS systems. This unit has an estimated shipping size of 3.0" x 3.0" x 9.0" (7.6 cm x 7.6 cm x 22.9 cm) and weighs 1 lbs 0.0 oz (0.5kg). Its relatively compact design makes it suitable for installation in various industrial environments. It can be conveniently placed in control cabinets or other designated areas without occupying excessive space. The manageable size and weight also simplify the installation process, allowing for easy integration with existing setups.

Functionally, the 16 inputs of the unit are of great significance. These inputs are designed to receive binary signals from a wide range of external sources. They can be connected to sensors such as limit switches that detect the position of moving parts in machinery. For example, in a manufacturing plant, these inputs can monitor the status of safety guards. If a guard is opened or closed, the corresponding limit switch sends a binary signal to one of the 16 inputs. The 1 ms delayed input feature is also crucial. It helps in filtering out short-duration electrical noise or glitches that could otherwise cause false readings. This ensures the accuracy and reliability of the input signals, which is vital for the proper functioning of the overall control system. In an industrial automation context, the 07DI93-I Remote Binary Input Unit acts as the eyes of the system, gathering critical information about the state of various components and processes. This information is then transmitted to the ABB Advant Controller 31 or ABB Advant OCS for further processing and decision-making. The controller can use this data to initiate appropriate actions, such as shutting down a machine if a safety condition is violated or adjusting the speed of a process based on the input from sensors. Overall, this input unit plays a key role in enhancing the control and safety aspects of industrial operations within the ABB ecosystem.
