The card is designed for hot-swapping within the DeltaV I\/O carrier. This allows for maintenance or replacement of the module while the system remains powered, provided the control application is configured for the expected state transition during the module's downtime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Can this module monitor powered digital inputs?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: No. This module is specifically designed for dry contact (non-powered) inputs. Applying external voltage to the dry contact terminals can result in permanent hardware damage to the input sensing circuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eField Installation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Secure the card into the designated I\/O carrier slot.

Ensure signal wiring is segregated from high-power AC lines or motor control cabling by a minimum of 150 mm to prevent inductive noise injection into the discrete input loops.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EMERSON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48129596227774,"sku":"VE4001S2T2B4","price":650.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/1145\/5422\/files\/screenshot_2026-06-12_16-58-00_0dc658a0-0fd8-444c-a4e0-fe15631a7f9f.png?v=1783662139","url":"https:\/\/www.autooiltech.com\/es\/products\/emerson-ve4001s2t2b4-discrete-input-card","provider":"AutoOilTech Limited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
