More Information

Overview Manuals Signal Ranges Wiring Protection Applications

Features:

  • Four analog current inputs for 0–20 mA or 4–20 mA loops
  • Approximately 2 ms update time for all channels
  • 12-bit conversion with optical separation from backplane logic
IC693ALG221 is the compact four-loop current-measurement option for Series 90-30 systems.

Range selection is physical and applies to channel pairs, which makes jumper records important during module exchange.

The controller receives refreshed measurement words while the external loop circuits provide the process current.

The General Electric IC693ALG221 Series 90-30 4-channel analog current input module may remain available for quotation and installed-system support from Apter Power.
General Electric IC693ALG221 Series 90-30 4-channel analog current input module Manuals, Datasheets, LinksImportant Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.

Current-loop conversion

  • Selectable spans: Jumpers choose 0–20 mA or 4–20 mA operation.
  • Paired settings: Two channels share each range-selection arrangement.
  • Resolution: Input current is represented with 12-bit conversion.
  • Update cycle: The module refreshes all four measurements in about 2 ms.

Loop and shield practice

  • Cable type: Twisted shielded conductors reduce interference on the analog inputs.
  • Loop source: The field transmitter or loop supply provides the measured current.
  • Shield termination: A consistent single-point shield strategy helps avoid ground-loop noise.
  • Polarity: Each current-loop connection follows the marked input polarity.

Isolation and common mode

  • Optical barrier: Field inputs are optically separated from Series 90-30 logic.
  • Common-mode tolerance: Protection is provided for common-mode voltage up to 200 V under reduced-performance conditions.
  • System grounding: Excessive potential difference should be corrected rather than treated as normal measurement practice.
  • Fault tracing: A full-scale or zero reading is checked against loop power, polarity, range jumpers, and wiring continuity.

Supported measurements

  • Pressure transmitters: Four-wire or loop-powered pressure signals can be acquired in the selected current range.
  • Flow monitoring: Industrial flow transmitters supply stable 4–20 mA values to the PLC.
  • Level control: Tank and vessel level loops can be processed with other Series 90-30 logic.
  • Temperature conversion: Current-output temperature transmitters can occupy any of the four channels.
Description
IC693ALG221 is a four-channel analog current input module that converts field loops into digital values for a Series 90-30 application. Channel pairs are selected by jumpers for either 0–20 mA or 4–20 mA operation.

For projects that use IC693ALG221, all four channels are updated in approximately 2 ms and reported with 12-bit resolution. Optical isolation separates the field-input electronics from the logic backplane, while common-mode protection helps the module tolerate substantial potential differences under the stated reduced-performance conditions.

In a control system built around IC693ALG221, the module can be installed in a compatible I/O position and is wired with twisted, shielded cable for low-noise measurements. Loop-source arrangement and shield termination should remain consistent with the original instrument circuit.

Technical notes
IC693ALG221 range jumpers are paired across channels; replacing the module without reproducing both jumper selections can rescale otherwise healthy current loops.

FAQS

The following is a list of questions commonly asked by our customers. Please contact us if you have a question about our process that is not answered below.
How is the input range selected on IC693ALG221?
The current-input module uses hardware jumpers to select 0–20 mA or 4–20 mA operation for each channel pair.
Why can two IC693ALG221 channels show the wrong scale after replacement?
Its groups range selection by pairs, so one misplaced jumper can affect both associated channels.
How quickly does IC693ALG221 update its inputs?
The installed current-input module refreshes all four analog-current channels in approximately 2 ms.
What cable is appropriate for IC693ALG221 loops?
Its analog circuits should use twisted shielded cable with a controlled shield-termination arrangement.
Does IC693ALG221 power a two-wire transmitter?
The selected current-input module measures loop current; a suitable external loop supply is still required for the transmitter circuit.
What should be checked when IC693ALG221 reads zero?
Its troubleshooting should cover loop power, input polarity, open wiring, jumper range, and transmitter output.
How is IC693ALG221 separated from PLC logic?
The analog module uses optical isolation between its field-input circuitry and the Series 90-30 backplane electronics.
