The General Electric IC697MDL241 is a 16-point discrete input module engineered for the Series 90-70 Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) platform. This module features individually isolated inputs, allowing for flexible application across different phases of an AC supply. It is designed to meet IEC type 2 current-voltage characteristics and is compatible with a wide range of 2-wire and 3-wire proximity switches.

Features

  • 16 individually isolated input points
  • Compatible with 2-wire and 3-wire proximity switches
  • 20ms input filter for signal stability
  • Integrated LED status indicators for each point on the logic side
  • Designed for high-reliability industrial environments

Applications

  • Power Generation and Utilities: Substation monitoring and turbine regulation.
  • Automotive Manufacturing: Robot positioning and fluid dispensing systems.
  • Oil and Gas: Safety-critical fire and gas detection systems.
  • Water Treatment: Pump and valve modulation for flow control.

Installation Guidelines

  • Ensure the PLC rack is powered down before inserting or removing the module.
  • The module is designed for standard Series 90-70 I/O slots.
  • If a mechanical keying block exists on the backplane from a previous module, it can be removed by pushing it upward to unhook the latch.
  • Maintain proper grounding practices for the backplane to ensure isolation integrity.
  • Verify that the proximity switch ON-state characteristics fall within the module's load line requirements to ensure reliable signal detection.

FAQ

What is the primary function of the IC697MDL241?

This module serves as a 16-point isolated AC input interface for the GE Series 90-70 PLC, converting field-level 240V AC signals into logic-level signals for the processor.

Are the inputs isolated?

Yes, all 16 inputs are individually isolated, which allows them to be connected to different phases of an AC power supply without interference.

Is this module compatible with proximity switches?

Yes, the module is designed to be compatible with a broad range of 2-wire and 3-wire proximity switches that meet the specified ON-state current and OFF-state leakage requirements.
