PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The General Electric IC693MDL645 is a Series 90-30 Positive / Negative Discrete input module. It interfaces field input devices with the programmable controller. Common devices include pushbuttons, limit switches, proximity switches, and auxiliary contacts. The module operates with positive or negative logic configurations. It accepts input voltage signals ranging from 0 to 30 VDC. The nominal input rating is 24 VDC with 7 mA input current.
This single-slot module occupies one slot in a 5-slot or 10-slot baseplate. It provides 16 input points organized into one group with a common terminal. The field-to-logic optical isolation is rated at 1500 VDC. Incoming signal states are transferred directly into the controller %I status table. Sixteen green LED indicators show the on and off status of each channel. A removable 20-screw terminal block allows field wiring.
