Description
The WEST PA1-W03 is a digital input option card designed for the West Plus Series of process controllers and indicators. It provides 4 digital input channels for monitoring external contact status, such as from pushbuttons, limit switches, or external control signals. This card is typically installed in the Option Slot A of compatible West controllers, enabling the addition of discrete input functionality to the base unit. It supports plug-and-play installation and is automatically recognized by the controller, allowing for easy system expansion without complex wiring changes.
