Product Overview

The GE Fanuc IC693MDL940 is a versatile relay output module for the Series 90-30 PLC platform. It features 16 discrete relay outputs, enabling the control of both AC and DC field devices within a single module. By using mechanical relay contacts instead of solid-state switching, this module provides a flexible and universally compatible solution for driving motor starters, solenoids, and indicator lamps across a wide voltage range.

Technical Specifications

Engineering Advantages

Universal Voltage Compatibility
Supports both AC and DC loads on the same module, allowing flexible control of mixed-voltage field devices using separate commons.

Complete Electrical Isolation
Mechanical relay contacts provide full isolation between PLC logic and field circuits, protecting sensitive electronics from voltage spikes and electrical noise.

High-Density Control
Delivers 16 output points in a single slot, maximizing I/O density and reducing overall system footprint and cost.

Instant Visual Diagnostics
Front-panel LEDs indicate the ON/OFF status of each output, simplifying commissioning and troubleshooting.

FAQs

Does the IC693MDL940 support high-speed switching?
No. Relay outputs have mechanical switching times (typically around 15 ms). For high-speed or PWM applications, use a solid-state output module.

Can I mix AC and DC loads on this module?
Yes. The module is divided into two isolated groups of 8 points, allowing different voltage types (AC and DC) on each group.

What is the lifespan of the relay contacts?
Mechanical life reaches millions of operations, but electrical life depends on load conditions. Using surge suppression for inductive loads helps extend lifespan.

Is this unit supplied in original packaging?
Yes. It is provided as 100% brand new in original factory-sealed packaging, ensuring authenticity and reliability.
