IC694MDL240

The IC694MDL240 is a discrete input module that belongs to the PACSystem RX3i series. This Programmable Automation Controller (PAC) platform is a family of mid-range controllers that comes in a highly modular configuration. Specifically, the IC694MDL240 is a 120 VAC-rated discrete input module, accepting an input voltage range of 85-132 VAC along with an input frequency of 5-0/60 Hz. This module comes with a single group of input channels and a single common terminal. This module is a categorized as high voltage module, indicated by the module’s red band. It is installed to any vacant slot of the PACSystem RX3i backplane. It occupies a single slot with a backplane current draw of 90 mA. Each input point exhibits a 30 ms On response time and 45 ms Off response time while On-state and Off-state voltages are 74-132 VAC and 0-20 VAC, respectively. The IC694MDL240 module has an optical isolation rating of 250 VAC for continuous voltage and 1500 VAC for 1 minute. Typical applications of the IC694MDL240 include the integration of push-button switches, limit switches, auxiliary contacts, proximity switches, and other binary operating devices. Module channel monitoring can be easily implemented by means of the Sixteen (16) numbered LED status indicators that represent each channel. A channel that is actively receiving current input has its corresponding LED indicator illuminated otherwise, the LED is de-energized. To operate the module, an external AC power source must be provided and wired to the module’s input terminals. Multiple instances of the IC694MDL240 is allowed for installation to a PACSystem RX3i system, limited only by the controller’s I/O and memory capacity as well as the number of a vacant slot of the system.

The IC694MDL240 module is an RX3i PACSystem input module manufactured by GE Fanuc. It has 16 input points and it comes with a voltage rating of 120 Volts AC. It is an intelligent device and it can be used with different PLC systems and input devices, switches, and sensors. It is a digital module and it has a current rating of 7 milliamps. The channels of this module are not isolated. The frequency rating of the module is 50 to 60 Hertz and it depends on the load that is currently on the module. The 16 input points of the module each come with an individual LED that illuminate when the input is on. The input module has one common power input terminal. The IC694MDL240 input module can only work with an AC power source. It can be easily installed in any I/O slot in the RX3i PLC system. The module can consume 90 milliamps of current from the 5 Volts bus on the backplane. For input power, the on-state voltage of the IC694MDL240 input module ranges between 74 and 132 Volts AC, and the off-state voltage is in the range of 0 and 20 Volts AC. The on-state current of the input module is 6 milliamps minimum and the off-state current is 2.2 milliamps maximum. The maximum operating temperature of the module should not exceed 60 degrees Celsius. The IC694MDL240 input module offers data transfer at high speeds. This input module meets the UL 508 standards. It has been designed to be operated in a Class 1, Division 2 rated environment.
