GE Fanuc IC697MDL350 Discrete Input Module 120 V AC Speedtronic Mark V

More Information:

Overview
As a discrete output module under GE Fanuc’s Series 90-70 product lineup, the IC697MDL350 is engineered to operate at 120 Volts AC. It boasts 32 individual output points, each with a current-carrying capacity of 0.5 Amps, and these points are organized into 4 isolated groups—with 8 points per group. A notable feature of this module is its high inrush current capability, which reaches approximately 20 times the rated current, making it well-suited for driving a wide range of inductive loads.

Flexibility is further enhanced by the module’s design: each 8-point group can be connected to a separate AC supply phase. For added protection, every output group is equipped with a 5-Amp rated fuse. On the front panel, LED indicators are integrated to display the on/off status of each output point from the PLC circuit side. Additionally, a dedicated LED is included to monitor the status of the fuses, which are located on the top of the module.

Mechanical & Configuration Advantages
The IC697MDL350 features a mechanical keying system, streamlining the replacement process by ensuring compatibility with identical module types. Unlike traditional modules that rely on jumpers or DIP switches for I/O reference configuration, this module eliminates such hardware-based steps. Instead, configuration is performed via MS-DOS or Windows-based programming software—compatible with Windows 95 or Windows NT operating systems—through either the SNP port or an Ethernet TCP/IP port. The necessary configuration functionality is preloaded onto the programming device, simplifying setup.

Load Compatibility & Current Limitations
The IC697MDL350 is highly compatible with a diverse array of load devices, including indicators, solenoids, and motor starters. It is important to note that the 0.5-Amp current rating specifies the long-term continuous current capacity for each individual output point. Due to heat dissipation characteristics, the total current draw of each output group is subject to limitations when operating in high-temperature environments.
