Specifications

Description

The GE Fanuc IC697MDL240 Discrete Input Module is a product of GE Fanuc that has been manufactured as part of the GE Series 90-70 PLC product line. This input module has 16 isolated input points with a voltage rating of 120 Volts AC and an input filter delay time of 20 milliseconds and the isolation is designed to enable the connection between various AC supply phases and inputs. It also comes with reactive inputs with current-voltage characteristics supporting a wide range of 2-wire or 3-wire proximity switches. It has LEDs on the top, indicating the on/off status for the points on the PLC. The IC697MDL240 Discrete Input Module features mechanical keying which allows for I/O configuration without requiring the use of DIP jumpers or switches.

Applications

Steel mills: Monitoring and transmitting limit signals from conveyor belt limit switches and blast furnace charging machines.

Coal power plants: Collecting open/close feedback from electric valves and status signals from pump starters.

Paper and cement plants: Used for long-distance signal transmission; 120V AC is more resistant to electromagnetic interference than low-voltage DC.

Oil and chemical plants: Monitoring various pressure and flow switch contacts in non-explosion-proof areas.

Features

16 isolated points

20ms input filter

Proximity switch compatible

Functions

This 120 volt AC Isolated Input module provides 16 input points that are isolated. This allows each point to be used on a different phase of the AC supply.

The input is reactive (resistor/capacitor input) with current-voltage characteristics that meet IEC standard (type 2). The input characteristics are compatible with a large range of available proximity switches.

LED indicators that show the ON-OFF status of each point on the logic (PLC) side of the circuit are located at the top of the module.

Input Characteristics

The 120 Volt AC Isolated Input Module is compatible with a wide variety of input devices, such as:

Pushbuttons, limit switches, selector switches

Electronic proximity switches, both 2-wire and 3-wire

The input circuitry is capacitive to give low heat dissipation and associated high reliability and long life.

Input current characteristics provide 10mA typically in the ON state, and can sink up to 2.2mA of leakage current in the OFF state to the input device.
