Description
Product Description
The IC697MDL241 is a 16-channel AC input module engineered for the GE Fanuc Series 90-70 PLC system. It monitors discrete 120 VAC signals from field devices such as push buttons, limit switches, and sensors, providing accurate and reliable input status to the PLC controller.
Designed for industrial environments, the IC697MDL241 features optical isolation between field wiring and the backplane to safeguard the PLC from electrical noise and voltage spikes. Each channel is equipped with a dedicated LED for immediate visual status verification, simplifying commissioning and troubleshooting. Its compact design allows installation in any Series 90-70 I/O slot, enabling flexible system integration.
