GE IC693MDL930

  • Product Introduction: This is a 16-channel universal output module for the GE Fanuc 90-30 PLC platform. It can switch both AC and DC loads using mechanical relays, with each channel rated at 0.5A. The IC693MDL930 is designed for high-density output applications where mixed AC/DC loads must be controlled from a single module. It is widely used in panel-mounted control systems, process control, and building automation.

  • Working Principle:
    • CPU writes output state via Genius Bus. Module energizes relay coil for active channels. Mechanical contact switches from NC to NO. LED shows output state. Snubber suppresses inductive kickback.
  • Installation Requirements:
    • IC693CHS or IC693ACC chassis
    • Wire loads to COM and NO (or NC)
    • Use 18-22 AWG wire
    • Add external suppression for large inductive loads
  • Usage Precautions:
    • Do not exceed 0.5A per channel
    • Do not switch AC and DC on same relay — reduces contact life
    • Add flyback diode for DC solenoids
    • Do not hot-swap
