Description
Product Description
The IC694MDL350 is a high-density discrete input module designed for the GE Fanuc PACSystems RX3i PLC series. Optimized for reliable digital signal acquisition, this module supports 32 24 VDC positive logic inputs, allowing seamless connection to field devices such as pushbuttons, limit switches, and proximity sensors.
With opto-isolated inputs, the IC694MDL350 ensures stable performance in environments with electrical noise. The module connects via two 20-pin field connectors and fits directly into standard RX3i racks. It supports high-speed serial bus communication and requires firmware version 3.5 or later for operation. For installation, a compatible terminal block (IC694TBBX32 or IC693TBSX32) is required.
Built for continuous industrial use, this compact input module delivers reliable performance, flexibility in device integration, and efficient utilization of rack space. It is suitable for machine control, process monitoring, and medium-to-large automation systems.
