Keterangan
The General Electric IC693MDL760 is a specialized hybrid output module engineered for the Series 90-30 PLC platform. This module uniquely integrates pneumatic control with standard discrete electrical signaling, providing 11 pneumatic outputs and 5 sourcing 24 VDC outputs in a single rack-mount package.
Features
- Integrated control for 11 pneumatic solenoid-actuated valves.
- Five discrete 24 VDC sourcing outputs for electrical signaling.
- Internal 3-way valves for pneumatic switching.
- Front-panel fittings for both pneumatic output and supply connections.
- Compatible with standard GE Series 90-30 baseplate I/O slots.

Installation Guidelines
- Ensure the PLC rack is powered down before inserting or removing the module to prevent electrical damage.
- Connect a clean, regulated air supply (up to 100 PSI) to the bottom supply fitting.
- Provide an external 24 VDC power supply to the front panel connector for solenoid and output operation.
- Use appropriate hose barbs (1/16" for outputs, 1/8" for supply) as specified for pneumatic connections.
- Handle with standard ESD precautions to protect internal circuitry.
- Verify that the pneumatic lines are properly secured to prevent leaks or accidental disconnection during operation.
Applications
This module is designed for automation environments requiring direct air-logic control alongside electrical I/O, such as:
- High-speed packaging machinery requiring pneumatic actuator control.
- Water treatment facilities for pump and valve management.
- Automated manufacturing processes, including injection molding and assembly.
- Building infrastructure systems for HVAC and pneumatic damper control.
FAQ
What is the primary function of the IC693MDL760?
It serves as a hybrid interface module for the Series 90-30 PLC, allowing the controller to directly actuate pneumatic valves while simultaneously managing five discrete 24 VDC electrical signals.
Does this module require external power?
Yes, an external 24 VDC power supply is required to energize the internal solenoids and the discrete output channels. This connects via the dedicated port on the module front panel.
Can this be used in any Series 90-30 slot?
The module is designed to fit into any standard I/O slot of a GE Series 90-30 baseplate.
