GE IC693MDL340 – Series 90-30 16-Point 120VAC Triac Discrete Output Module

In stock

Product Introduction:

The IC693MDL340, designed by GE Fanuc (now Emerson Automation), is a high-density solid-state AC output module for the GE Series 90-30 PLC platform. It converts low-voltage DC control signals from the PLC into 120VAC output signals to drive AC-powered field devices. With 16 triac-based outputs organized into 2 isolated groups, it delivers fast, reliable, and noise-resistant switching for industrial automation systems, serving as a critical interface between digital controllers and AC loads in harsh environments.

Key Features

16-Channel High-Density Output: Optimizes cabinet space with 16 triac outputs for efficient AC load control.
Solid-State Triac Technology: Ensures long service life, no mechanical wear, and fast switching (1ms ON response).
Dual Group Isolation: 2 electrically isolated groups (8 channels each) minimize cross-talk and enhance system safety.
Built-In Protection: RC snubbers suppress voltage spikes; group fuses simplify fault isolation and prevent overload damage.
Individual Channel Diagnostics: Front-panel LEDs provide real-time ON/OFF status for each output, enabling quick troubleshooting.
