Brief Product Description

The GE Fanuc IC694MDL930 is a high-capacity 8-channel relay output module designed for the PACSystems RX3i platform. It features eight isolated “Form A” contacts capable of switching both AC and DC loads for various industrial control applications.

​Product Description

The IC694MDL930 operates as a high-performance discrete output interface within the GE PACSystems RX3i series. This module provides eight independent relay circuits, each utilizing a Normally Open (N.O.) Form A configuration. Because the module design provides individual isolation for every channel, users can control multiple circuits with differing voltage potentials and sources simultaneously. This makes the IC694MDL930 an essential component for bridging low-voltage PLC logic with high-power field devices such as solenoids, contactors, and motor starters.

Versatile Load Handling and Electrical Performance

Each relay contact supports a wide operational range, handling voltages from 5 to 30 VDC or 5 to 250 VAC. Under standard operating conditions, the individual outputs manage up to 4 Amps for resistive loads. When controlling inductive or pilot duty devices, the capacity adjusts to 2 Amps per point. The module maintains high electrical integrity through an isolation rating of 1500 VAC for one minute, ensuring protection for the backplane and sensitive processor components. Furthermore, the 15 ms response time ensures that the system executes switching commands with the precision required for modern industrial automation.

Installation and Monitoring Capabilities

The IC694MDL930 integrates seamlessly into RX3i universal backplanes and remains compatible with Series 90-30 baseplates, offering a flexible migration path for legacy system upgrades. Eight front-facing LED indicators provide immediate visual feedback by displaying the logic state of each output point. For wiring, the module utilizes a removable terminal block, which simplifies maintenance and reduces downtime during replacement. While the module draws its logic power from the backplane, the relay coils require an external power source, allowing for greater control over the field-side electrical architecture.
