Description

The IC693MDL340 is a 16-point discrete output module designed for the GE Fanuc Series 90-30 Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) system. This module provides sixteen isolated output points arranged in two groups of eight, facilitating the control of 120V AC field devices. It is engineered to interface directly with the Series 90-30 backplane, providing reliable switching for industrial automation applications.

Features

• Sixteen (16) discrete output channels organized into two groups of eight.
• Rated for 120V AC operation with an output signal range of 85-132V AC.
• Maximum output current of 0.5A per point.
• Robust isolation: 1500V between field and logic sides, and 500V between groups.
• Supports a frequency range of 50 to 60 Hz.
• Inrush current capacity of 20A for one cycle.

Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure power is disconnected from the PLC rack before installing or removing the module to prevent electrical shock or damage to the backplane.
• Verify that the module is fully seated in the designated slot and that the locking tabs are engaged.
• Use appropriate wire gauges for field connections; ensure all terminal screws are tightened to the recommended torque to prevent loose connections.
• Maintain proper clearance for ventilation to prevent overheating, as the module requires adequate airflow for cooling.
• Route high-voltage AC field wiring away from low-voltage logic or communication cables to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI).
• Handle the module using ESD-safe practices to prevent damage to sensitive internal circuitry.
