General I/O Specifications 
I/O Pullups & Socket: 

 I/O channels include sockets for 

installation of optional SIP resistor networks to act as 
pullups for the channel.  A SIP socket is included for 
each group of four channels (port) and a 5.6K

 resistor 

SIP is installed from the factory.  The even-numbered 
pins of these sockets (common leads) connect to the port 
EXC+ terminal.  An external excitation supply is typically 
connected between the EXC+ and RTN terminals of the 
port.  Refer to Drawing 4501-811 for jumper and socket 
locations.  The recommended SIP resistor is a four 
isolated resistor type (8 pins) and may be obtained from 
Acromag or another vendor.  These SIP resistors 
typically come rated for 0.2W, 0.3W, or 0.4W per 
element.  For example, refer to Bourns 4308R-102, 
4308M-102, or 4308H-102 parts.  You may also refer to 
Dale CSC08C03, MSP08C03, or MSM08C-03 parts.  The 
5.6K

 SIP provided is a high-power type from Bourns 

(part number 4308H-102-562) and is rated at 0.4W per 
resistor up to 70

°

C. 

IMPORTANT:

  When selecting a SIP resistor, be sure to 

limit the individual resistor power dissipation to less than 
the rated power per element.  This is 0.4W for the 5.6K

 

SIP resistor installed from the factory.  Further, do not 
exceed 500mA of drain current per output, or 2A total per 
RTN terminal.

 

Excitation:  

External excitation voltage is applied between 

the port EXC+ and RTN terminals and must be limited to 
35V or less.  The EXC+ terminal is tied to the even-
numbered pins of the resistor SIP socket provided for 
each port or group of 4 channels.  See Drawing 
4501-811.

IMPORTANT - External Fuse

:  If unit is powered from a 

supply capable of delivering more than 1A to the unit, it is 
recommended that this current be limited via a high surge 
tolerant fuse rated for a maximum current of 1A or less  
(for example, see Bel Fuse MJS1).

354V DC off DC power ground, on a continuous basis (will 
withstand 1500VAC dielectric strength test for one minute 
without breakdown).  This complies with test requirements of 
ANSI/ISA-82.01-1988 for the voltage rating specified.  I/O 
points are not isolated channel-to-channel and share a
