Description
Product Description
The GE IC695ALG616 is a high-precision analog input module for the PACSystems RX3i platform. It captures analog signals from a wide variety of sensors—including temperature, pressure, flow, and voltage/current transducers—and converts them into digital data for PLC processing.
This module offers configurable channel operation, supporting 16 differential or 32 single-ended inputs, with multiple selectable voltage and current ranges. Its 16-bit resolution, fast ~1 ms per channel conversion time, and robust channel-to-channel and channel-to-backplane isolation provide reliable, noise-resistant signal acquisition. Integrated diagnostics simplify troubleshooting and ensure consistent system performance.
