PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The General Electric IC695ALG616-CA is an Analog Input Module for the PACSystems RX3i series. It provides 16 single-ended channels or 8 differential channels. The hardware incorporates a 24-bit analog-to-digital converter. It accepts standard current and voltage signals. Available ranges include plus-minus 10 V, 0 to 10 V, 4 to 20 mA, and plus-minus 20 mA.
Revision CA features updated hardware and operates on firmware revision 1.01. The module draws 350 mA at 5 VDC and 200 mA at 3.3 VDC from the backplane. Total module power dissipation is 4.25 W. Terminal-to-backplane optical isolation is rated at 250 VAC continuous and 1500 VAC for one minute. Input channels are non-isolated channel-to-channel.
