More Information

Overview Manuals Signal Interface Field Wiring Isolation Applications

Features:

  • Sixteen 120 VAC input points in one common group
  • Individual point LEDs provide direct field-state indication
  • 1,500 V isolation separates the AC input section from PLC logic
IC693MDL240 converts a bank of line-voltage contact states into discrete data for the Series 90-30 CPU.

Its single-common topology favors groups of devices powered from the same AC branch.

External field power supplies the sensing circuit; the backplane handles the logic interface and status transfer.

AC input behavior

  • Input range: Each channel accepts a 0 to 132 VAC signal at 50 or 60 Hz.
  • Point grouping: All sixteen inputs return through one shared common terminal.
  • State display: A dedicated LED follows the logic state of every input point.
  • AC-only design: The sensing network is designed for alternating-current devices, not DC substitution.

Source and device connections

  • External source: Field voltage is provided outside the module and routed through the connected device.
  • Contact devices: Pushbuttons and mechanical limit switches can complete the AC input path.
  • Electronic sensors: Compatible proximity switches may be used when their off-state leakage stays within the input requirements.
  • Common integrity: All points must share the intended branch reference without mixing unrelated AC sources.

Control-side protection

  • Logic separation: The field section withstands 1,500 V relative to the backplane logic.
  • Group limitation: Isolation applies to the input group as a whole, not between individual channels.
  • Troubleshooting: An illuminated point LED helps distinguish field activity from program-side logic.
  • Panel practice: Line-voltage conductors remain segregated from low-level and communication wiring.

Supported input uses

  • Operator stations: Illuminated pushbutton and selector-switch contacts can report machine commands.
  • Travel detection: AC limit switches provide end-of-stroke and position status.
  • Conveyor sensing: Compatible proximity devices can detect products or carriers on material-handling equipment.
  • Utility monitoring: Auxiliary contacts from starters, relays, and protective devices can supply sixteen shared-common status points.
Description
IC693MDL240 is a sixteen-point AC input module that brings 120 VAC field signals into a Series 90-30 PLC through one common input group. It is intended for AC sensing devices rather than DC input circuits.

With IC693MDL240, pushbuttons, limit switches, and compatible electronic proximity switches can drive the module when the field circuit is supplied from an external AC source. Reactive input circuitry establishes the on/off state presented to the controller, and faceplate LEDs show the condition of the individual points.

When integrating IC693MDL240, the input section is isolated from the logic side to 1,500 V, while all sixteen points share the same common conductor. Field wiring therefore has to remain within one compatible 0 to 132 VAC, 50/60 Hz circuit arrangement.

Technical notes
IC693MDL240 has one common for all sixteen channels; combining devices from separately referenced AC branches can defeat the intended group wiring arrangement.

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.
Why does IC693MDL240 need an external AC source?
The 120 VAC input module senses voltage delivered through the field device; its backplane connection does not provide the 120 VAC input power.
Can IC693MDL240 accept DC signals?
This 120 VAC input module is an AC input module for 0 to 132 VAC at 50/60 Hz and should not be treated as a DC input card.
How are IC693MDL240 inputs grouped?
The installed 120 VAC input module places all sixteen channels in a single group with one shared common connection.
What does a dark IC693MDL240 LED indicate?
A configured 120 VAC input module uses one LED per point; a dark LED indicates that the corresponding input circuit is not being recognized as on.
Can proximity sensors be connected to IC693MDL240?
The selected 120 VAC input module can be driven by compatible electronic proximity switches when their voltage, frequency, and leakage behavior meet the AC input requirements.
What isolation is provided by IC693MDL240?
The unit provides 1,500 V isolation between the complete AC input group and the Series 90-30 logic side.
Why can an IC693MDL240 point remain active after a contact opens?
The input card may still sense current from an electronic device with excessive off-state leakage, so the connected sensor circuit should be checked.
