PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The General Electric IC693PWR321 is a 30 Watt power supply module for Series 90-30 programmable logic controllers. It mounts directly into the leftmost slot of any Series 90-30 baseplate. The unit accepts an AC input from 85 to 264 VAC. Alternatively, it accepts a DC input from 100 to 300 VDC.
This device delivers three separate output voltages. It supplies 5 VDC, 24 VDC relay power, and an isolated 24 VDC output. An integrated battery maintains internal volatile memory during power outages. The front panel features six terminals for electrical wiring connections. It also includes an RS-485 serial communication port.
