Technical Specifications

Installation Guidelines

• Ensure the PACSystems RX3i rack power is disconnected before installing or removing the module.
• The module should be seated firmly into the designated rack slot to ensure proper backplane connection.
• Use appropriate shielded cabling for field inputs to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI).
• Maintain proper ventilation within the control cabinet to ensure the module operates within its specified temperature range (0-60 degC).
• Ensure all field wiring is correctly terminated to the terminal block, adhering to local electrical codes.

FAQ

What is the primary function of the IC694MDL240?
This is a discrete input module used to detect the presence or absence of 120 VAC signals from field devices and report that status to the PACSystems RX3i controller.

Is this module compatible with other GE series?
The IC694MDL240 is specifically designed for the PACSystems RX3i series. Please consult your system documentation for cross-platform compatibility.

What is the isolation rating of this module?
The module provides optical isolation rated at 250 VAC continuous and 1500 VAC for 1 minute between the field side and the backplane.
