GE Fanuc IC693MDL760

The GE Fanuc IC693MDL760 is a specialized solenoid valve output module designed for industrial automation applications. This module features eleven pneumatic outputs, each controlled by an internal 3-way solenoid-actuated valve, as well as five 24VDC sourcing outputs. The pneumatic outputs are equipped with output fittings located on the front panel, allowing for straightforward connectivity to a pressure source, which the user must supply with a maximum pressure of 100 psi. When activated, the internal valve channels the pressure to the output fitting, while each valve's output port is vented within the module when deactivated. Users can connect an external 24VDC power supply to energize the solenoid, with the front panel accommodating a 12-pin connector for a Solenoid Forcing Pendent. The five sourcing outputs are rated at a maximum of 0.5A each, with a cumulative total limit of 2.0A across all outputs. A 10-pin connector on the front panel facilitates field wiring for these output points, which require a 24VDC supply for proper operation. While the five outputs are electrically isolated from the PLC backplane, they lack individual isolation from one another. When utilizing VersaPro programming software version 2.0 or later, the module should be configured by its catalog number; otherwise, it can be set up as a standard 16-point generic output module. Technical specifications include a rated voltage of 24 volts DC, with an output voltage range of 18 to 30VDC and a power consumption of 75 mA from the 5V bus.
