Because each channel includes a robust onboard RC snubber to absorb switching transients, a small off-state leakage current (up to 2 mA at 132 VAC) flows continuously through the output circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring an on-site commissioning call at a chemical batching facility, our engineers resolved an issue where a low-power 120 VAC LED pilot indicator remained faintly glowing even when the output point was turned off. The high input impedance of the ultra-low-power indicator allowed the 2 mA leakage current to generate enough voltage across the load to illuminate it. Adding a parallel load resistor (bleeder resistor) across the field terminal safely shunted the leakage current, eliminating the false indication. We recommend auditing field load current draw prior to installation to ensure all connected devices exceed the 10 mA minimum operational threshold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrequently Asked Questions (FAQ)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eQ: What is the main operational benefit of individual channel isolation on the IC200MDL331?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Channel-to-channel isolation eliminates ground loops and permits each of the 8 output points to switch independent AC power sources or different phases safely without cross-talk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eQ: Does the IC200MDL331 supply power to connected field loads directly from the backplane?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: No. The backplane bus only powers internal module logic (drawing 85 mA).
