About the SM 1223, DI 8x120/230 V AC, DQ 8x relay
The Siemens 6ES7223-1QH32-0XB0 is a SIMATIC S7-1200 digital I/O module (SM 1223) with 8 AC inputs rated 120/230 V AC and 8 relay outputs switching up to 2 A each. It runs from a 24 V DC backplane supply, groups inputs and outputs in sets of 4 for potential separation, and carries IP20, CE, UL/cULus, CSA, FM, and RCM/KC approvals.

Selection Notes
The 8 AC inputs read 120/230 V AC field devices directly, so this card avoids interposing relays where limit switches or pushbuttons already run on line voltage. On the output side, the 8 relay channels switch either AC (5-250 V AC) or DC (5-30 V DC) loads on the same card, unlike a transistor output module limited to one voltage type, which suits panels mixing AC contactors with DC indicators. Output short-circuit protection is not built in and must be provided externally, which matters when sizing upstream fusing for the relay outputs.
Applications
Machine control panels with mixed 120/230 V AC field inputs and relay-switched AC/DC outputs, such as line-voltage limit switches feeding contactors, solenoids, or pilot lamps from an S7-1200 station.
