Reliable AC Input Acquisition for RX3i Systems
The GE IC694MDL240 provides eight isolated AC input channels for the PACSystems RX3i platform. This module accepts 100-240 VAC signals from field devices like limit switches, pushbuttons, and proximity sensors . Each channel offers optical isolation from the backplane for robust noise immunity . Furthermore, the IC694MDL240 supports operation over a wide frequency range of 47 to 63 Hz . Its compact design and reliable performance make it ideal for retrofit and new installations.
Electrical Specifications and Filtering
The module operates with a nominal input voltage of 120 VAC and accepts a range of 0 to 264 VAC . The on-state voltage ranges from 74 to 264 VAC, while the off-state voltage stays between 0 and 40 VAC . Input current averages 7.5 mA at 120 VAC or 12.5 mA at 240 VAC . The IC694MDL240 features a selectable input filter for enhanced noise rejection . You can also configure the filter time constant to meet specific application requirements.
