GE IC693MDL752C Output Module

The IC693MDL752C functions as a discrete output module for the Series 90-30 PLC system. This unit drives up to twelve field devices from a single rack slot. It controls solenoids, relays, and indicator lamps directly from logic outputs. Therefore, this module provides reliable machine control for factory automation applications.

Technical Specifications

We engineered this output module for demanding industrial switching tasks. Its compact single-slot design saves valuable panel space inside enclosures. Moreover, the module includes built-in suppression for inductive load protection.

Output Circuit Design

The IC693MDL752C uses MOSFET technology for each of its twelve outputs. Each channel sources current from the external DC supply to the load. Individual LED indicators show the status of every output point immediately. Consequently, you can troubleshoot field wiring without any external test equipment.

Protection Features and Load Handling

This output module includes built-in overcurrent protection on each channel. The module also provides flyback diode suppression for inductive loads. Each output connects to one of three commons with four points per common. Therefore, you can mix different voltage groups on the same module.

Switching Performance and Response Time

The IC693MDL752C turns outputs on within 1 ms of the logic command. It turns outputs off with the same speed for precise control. The module handles high-inrush loads like solenoids without contact welding. Hence, this output module suits high-speed packaging and assembly applications.

Power Requirements and Energy Storage

This module draws 120 mA from the 5V DC backplane supply only. It does not require any external 24V power for internal logic. The module contains no battery or capacitor energy storage components. All output states reset to off during PLC power loss for safe operation.

Installation and Wiring

Mount the IC693MDL752C into any Series 90-30 rack slot. Connect your field devices to the removable terminal block securely. Use a 2.5 mm screwdriver for all terminal screw connections. Verify the common connections match your load voltage requirements before applying power. Always turn off power before inserting or removing this module.
