The IC697MDL653 is a digital output module belonging to GE Fanuc's 90-70 series PLCs, primarily used to control switching actions of external devices in industrial automation systems. Below is its detailed information:
- Module Type: 16-point digital output module with relay output.
- Number of Outputs: 16 independent outputs, divided into 2 groups (8 points per group), each group can be configured with independent power supplies.
- Output Voltage Range:
- AC: 100-240 VAC (50/60Hz)
- DC: 24-125 VDC
- Maximum Output Current:
- Per-point continuous current: 2A (resistive load)
- Total current per group: 8A (resistive load, at 25°C ambient temperature)
- Response Time:
- Off to On: ≤10ms
- On to Off: ≤5ms (resistive load)
- Isolation: No isolation between channels; each group is opto-isolated from the backplane (2500VAC for 1 minute).
- Power Requirement: Powered by an external independent power supply (not dependent on the PLC backplane power).
- Operating Environment:
- Operating temperature: 0°C to 60°C
- Storage temperature: -40°C to 85°C
- Humidity: 5% to 95% RH (non-condensing)
- Mounting: Compatible with 90-70 series PLC standard racks (e.g., IC697CHS790, IC697CHS791, etc.).
- Flexible Power Configuration: The two output groups can be connected to external power supplies of different voltages (e.g., one group for 220VAC, the other for 24VDC), adapting to diverse control needs.
- Relay Output Advantages: Relay contacts provide mechanical isolation, supporting AC/DC mixed loads, suitable for driving industrial devices such as contactors, solenoid valves, and indicator lights.
- Status Indication: Each output is equipped with an LED indicator, 直观显示 output status (on/off) for easy on-site debugging and fault diagnosis.
- Overload Protection: Each output group is designed with overcurrent protection (external fuses required), preventing module damage due to abnormal loads.
- Anti-interference Capability: Industrial-grade design with excellent electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), ensuring stable operation in industrial environments with strong electromagnetic interference.
- Controlling industrial actuators such as motor starters, solenoid valves, and contactors.
- Driving status indication devices like indicator lights and alarms.
- Switching control in production lines, packaging machinery, and logistics conveying systems.
- Serving as digital output nodes in automation control systems for water treatment, metallurgy, chemical, and other industries.
- Only applicable to GE Fanuc 90-70 series PLC systems, requiring compatibility with the same series CPU modules (e.g., IC697CPU771, IC697CPU780, etc.) and racks.
- Supports configuration and control via PLC programming software (e.g., VersaPro, Cimplicity Machine Edition).
- Diagnostics: Integrated self-diagnostic functions with LED status indicators (power, run, fault) for quick troubleshooting of system issues.
- Redundancy Capability: Can be configured in redundant systems (with compatible modules) to minimize downtime in critical applications.
The IC693CPU374-GP is widely used in:
- Manufacturing automation (assembly lines, packaging machinery, material handling).
- Industrial process control (water/wastewater treatment, chemical processing, oil and gas).
- Power generation and distribution systems.
- Building automation (HVAC, lighting, security systems).
- Transportation infrastructure (railway signaling, traffic control).
- Works with Series 90-30 backplanes (IC693CHS391, IC693CHS392, etc.).
- Supports communication with GE Fanuc HMIs (e.g., QuickPanel) and third-party SCADA systems via standard protocols.
- Compatible with legacy Series 90-30 modules for seamless system upgrades.
