Description

GE IC200ALG326 Technical Specifications

  • Output Channels: 8 single-ended, grouped together

  • Resolution: 13-bit

  • Output Range: 4–20 mA (default), 0–20 mA (jumper-configurable)

  • Output Current per Channel: Approximately 20.38 mA maximum (including modest overrange)

  • Update Rate: 15 milliseconds

  • External Power Supply: 18–30 VDC (required for outputs)

  • Backplane Current Consumption: 50 mA from +5V bus

  • Accuracy at 25°C: ±0.3% typical of full scale, ±0.5% maximum of full scale

  • Isolation: 250 VAC continuous; 1500 VAC for 1 minute (user input to logic and to frame ground)

  • LED Indicators: FLD PWR (green, indicates field power present); OK (green, indicates backplane power present)

  • Dimensions: 110 mm (W) × 66.8 mm (H) × 50 mm (D) — excluding carrier height and mating connectors

  • Operating Temperature: 40°C to +70°C

  • Certifications: CE, UL, CSA

Functional Features The module provides current-sourcing outputs with intelligent processing performed by the host CPU or NIU. It automatically converts negative command values to 0 mA. Output behavior during power loss or communication interruption is configurable via jumper — outputs can hold their last state or default to a predefined value. External user power must remain uninterrupted to maintain output states. The module reports Loss of User Side Power faults for field-side circuits.

Applications

  • Process control valve actuation
  • Variable frequency drive speed reference signals
  • Damper and louver positioning in HVAC systems
  • Chemical dosing system control
  • Motor speed regulation in manufacturing lines

Installation Requirements Requires mounting on a VersaMax I/O carrier (such as IC200CHS002 or IC200CHS022). An external 24 VDC power supply is mandatory for field-side output circuits. The module must be properly grounded through the carrier to the DIN rail for EMC protection.
