IC697MDL753

Product Description

The IC697MDL753 is a 5/48 Volt DC, 0.5 Amp, Negative Logic, 32-Point Output module from the GE Fanuc 90-70 Series. This module provides 32 points divided into 2 isolated groups of 16 points each.  The rated voltage on this module can be 5 volts DC or 10 to 60 volts DC.  It provides a high degree of inrush current at 10 to 60 volts which makes the outputs suitable for a wide range of loads which have such characteristics.  It also operates at TTL levels.   

The outputs are ideal for a wide spectrum of loads. This is due to the effective delivery of high inrush current which is between 10 to 60 volts. You can spot LED indicators at the top of each logic point of the PLC module. Their primary function is to display the ON-Off status of each logic point of the PLC. Jumpers and DIP switches are not required for the configuration of I/O references located on the module. The configuration of the module is achieved using Microsoft’s MS-DOS or Windows NT & 95 operating systems over the TCP/IP protocol. Programming devices can be either compatible personal computers, PS/2, AT or IBM.

As mentioned earlier, the IC697MDL753 PLC output module is compatible with a wide variety of loads which include indicators, motor starters, solenoids and TTL interfaces. Due to the significant overall heat dissipation with each group of modules, the maximum current is set to 4 Amps. Each output can deliver a current rating exceeding its long-term rating. The ability of each output point to deliver a current largely depends on the device’s current rating as well as the duration the device is powered ON. Since the Logic output module has no replaceable fuses, a ¾ Amp 250-volt fuse is connected externally to each output point. The fuse models are either Little Fuse 312.750 or Bussmann AGC-3/4.

There are certain field wiring procedures that need to be followed when setting up the modules.  First, ensure that you’ve turned off the power during removal or installation of terminal boards. The jackscrew that secures the terminal board in place can be located when opening the hinged door on the module. The screw is then turned in a counter clockwise direction to loosen the detachable terminal board. The board is thereafter removed by grabbing it and swinging it outward. Be cautious when removing the terminal board. The hinged door may become damaged if it is used to remove the terminal board.  The board can accommodate wires ranging from AWG#22 (0.36mm2) right through AWG #14 (2.10mm2). Kindly note that a .135-inch maximum diameter is not to be exceeded when using the AWG#14 (2.10mm2) wire.

For a proper connection, you can terminate two wires on any terminal if the wires are of the same size. The terminal board accepts a maximum of 40 AWG#14 wires. If the said wires are to be used, then the wire markers should be placed accordingly. The terminal board is designed to accept a maximum of (40) AWG #14 (2.10 mm2) wires. To provide ample space for the hinged door to close, wire markers should be placed at least 8 inches (203 mm) from termination end when using the AWG #14 wires.  After connections are completed for all modules in the rack, wire bundles must be secured. It’s recommended that cable ties are firmly wrapped round the wire bundles. Additional cable ties are used when larger wire bundles are involved. Each module comes with a door label insert which displays its wiring information. After completion of the field wiring, the terminal board should be firmly secured on the rack. For ideal ventilation of the module, a 6-inch clearance is recommended above and below the rack grill.
