Product Description
The GE IC693MDL646 is a 24V DC Discrete Input Module that belongs to the GE Fanuc Series 90-30 Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) family. This module is designed to provide 16 input points in a single group and supports both positive and negative logic, making it compatible with a wide range of industrial input devices such as limit switches, push buttons, and proximity sensors.
Each point on the module is optically isolated from the backplane and other channels, ensuring safe operation in electrically noisy environments. The input status is recorded in the PLC’s input status table (%I), and each input point features an LED indicator for real-time monitoring. The module is housed in a standard I/O slot and follows the Series 90-30 installation conventions.
