Product Overview

The IC694ALG223-DB is a high-density current sensing module for the PACSystems RX3i and RX7i platforms. It provides 16 single-ended input channels for interfacing with industrial transmitters, converting 0-20 mA and 4-20 mA signals into 12-bit digital data for monitoring variables like pressure, flow, and level with high precision. Supplied in 100% Brand New original condition, it ensures reliable performance in both local and distributed I/O configurations.

Technical Specifications

Key Features

• High-Density Monitoring: 16 channels in a single slot reduce physical footprint in control cabinets.

• Enhanced 4-20 mA Mode: Includes under-range and over-range detection for improved signal accuracy and fault detection.

• Dedicated A/D Conversion: Each channel has its own ADC, ensuring consistent update rates across all channels.

• Flexible Compatibility: Works seamlessly across both RX3i and RX7i platforms, making it versatile for various installations.

• Configurable Alarm Thresholds: Set high and low limits to trigger instant alerts if process variables exceed safe limits.

FAQs

What is the significance of the "-DB" suffix?
The "-DB" suffix indicates a specific hardware revision with enhanced components for improved reliability while maintaining compatibility with the original IC694ALG223 series.

Does this module require an external 24 VDC power source?
Yes, it requires an external 24 VDC supply for the isolated analog circuitry. This must be connected to the terminal block.

Can I use this module for differential input signals?
No, the IC694ALG223-DB supports only single-ended inputs. For differential inputs, select an alternative isolated analog module.

Is calibration required upon installation?
No, the module comes factory calibrated, providing high accuracy right out of the box.
