Product Overview
The GE IC694MDL632 functions as a high-voltage discrete input module for the PACSystems RX3i controller series. This module detects the status of field devices such as pushbuttons, limit switches, and proximity sensors operating at 125VDC. It provides eight input points divided into two isolated groups, enabling flexible wiring configurations for complex industrial applications. We supply this module as 100% Brand New and Original equipment.

Engineering Advantages
Flexible Group Isolation
The module divides the eight inputs into two electrically isolated groups of four points. This design allows each group to operate with different power supplies or logic polarities, reducing wiring complexity and saving panel space in mixed-voltage systems.
High Voltage Signal Stability
Operating at 125VDC improves signal reliability across long cable distances compared to lower-voltage control systems. This characteristic minimizes issues related to voltage drop and electromagnetic interference in large industrial facilities.
Enhanced Safety Identification
A red identification band on the module faceplate clearly indicates the presence of high-voltage circuitry. This visual warning helps maintenance personnel follow appropriate electrical safety procedures during installation and servicing.
Integrated Diagnostics
Eight front-panel LED indicators provide immediate visual confirmation of input status for every channel. Technicians can quickly monitor field signal activity and accelerate troubleshooting during system commissioning and maintenance.
FAQs
Can the IC694MDL632 be installed in a Series 90-30 rack?
No. The IC694MDL632 is designed specifically for the PACSystems RX3i platform and requires the RX3i backplane architecture. It is not compatible with legacy Series 90-30 racks.
Does this module support hot-swapping?
Yes. The RX3i platform supports hot-swapping capabilities, allowing the module to be replaced while the system remains powered, provided all high-voltage safety procedures are followed.
What is the maximum number of inputs that can be activated simultaneously?
The module can support all eight active inputs simultaneously. However, in high ambient temperature environments approaching 60°C, thermal derating guidelines from the RX3i System Manual should be followed to maintain stable operation.
How do I configure the logic type for each group?
Logic configuration depends on external field wiring. Connecting the group common terminal to the negative side of the supply enables positive logic operation, while connecting it to the positive side enables negative logic operation.
