Fanuc IC693MDL330 PLC

This 2 amp AC output module has a catalog number with a D or later suffix (i.e., IC693MDL330D); previous versions (modules with a C or earlier suffix) were rated at 1 amp. The 120/240 volt, 2 Amp AC Output module for the Series 90-30 Programmable Logic Controller provides 8 output points in two isolated groups with four points in each group. Each group has a separate common associated with it. The two commons are not tied together inside the module. This allows each group to be used on different phases of the AC supply, or they can be powered from the same supply. Each group is protected with a 5 amp fuse for each common, and an RC snubber is provided for each output to protect against transient electrical noise on the power line. This module provides a high-degree of inrush current (10x the rated current) which makes the outputs suitable for controlling a wide range of inductive and incandescent loads. AC Power (DC power cannot be used) to operate loads connected to outputs must be supplied by the user.

LED indicators which provide the ON/OFF status of each point are located at the top of the module. There are two horizontal rows with eight green LEDs in each row and a red LED centered between and to the right of the two rows. This module uses the upper eight LEDs, labeled A1 through 8 for output status. The red “F” LED is a blown fuse indicator that turns ON if any of the fuses should blow. An insert goes between the inside and outside surface of the hinged door. The surface towards the inside of the module (when the hinged door is closed) has circuit wiring information, and circuit identification information can be recorded on the outside surface. The outside left edge of the insert is color-coded red to indicate a high-voltage module. This module can be installed in any I/O slot of a 5 or 10-slot baseplate in a Series 90-30 PLC system.
