GE Fanuc IC693MDL931

The IC693MDL931 is an Isolated Relay Output module designed for the GE Fanuc Series 90-30 Programmable Logic Controller. It offers versatility with a rated voltage of 24 volts DC and 120/240 volts AC at a frequency of 50/60 Hz. This module provides eight isolated relay outputs, each with a maximum switching capacity of 8 amps for resistive loads and 20 amps maximum per module in compliance with UL standards. The configuration includes four normally-closed and four Form C relay circuits, enabling efficient control of various output loads while ensuring independence between circuits through isolation and separate common power output terminals.

This module is particularly suited for high-availability applications, such as motor starters, solenoids, and indicators. It is important to note that user-supplied AC or DC power is necessary for operating the connected field devices. When utilizing a DC power supply, such as the IC695PSD040 or PSD140, special precautions are advised, as voltage dropouts may lead to relay dropouts. It should also be emphasized that the IC693MDL931 contains no internal fuses, relying instead on LED indicators positioned at the top of the module to indicate the ON/OFF status of each point. Each of the eight output status LEDs is arranged in two horizontal rows for clear visibility.

Additionally, an insert is provided for the hinged door, featuring circuit wiring information on the inside and a space for circuit identification on the outside, which is color-coded red to signify a high-voltage module. The IC693MDL931 can be integrated into any I/O slot of a 5 or 10-slot baseplate, such as the RX3i or Series 90-30 PLC systems. It is essential to observe that this module is not compatible with hot swap operations; inserting or removing it while powered may result in damage to the module or other components. Technical specifications include rated voltage options of 24 volts DC or 120/240 volts AC, eight isolated outputs, a frequency of 50/60 Hz, and the capability of handling output currents of up to 8 amps per circuit.
