Product Name:

GE IC690RFH008

Product Description:

The IC690RFH008 is an 8-point Digital Input/Output Module designed for use with the GE Fanuc 90-30 series programmable logic controllers (PLCs). This module provides remote I/O capabilities, which means it can interface with field devices  and communicate over a remote network. The module is used to extend the input/output capabilities of a PLC system, allowing for greater flexibility and scalability in automation applications.

Product Parameters:

• Type: Remote I/O Module (Digital I/O)
• Input Type: 8 points, discrete (digital)
• Output Type: 8 points, discrete (digital)
• Input Voltage Range: 24V DC (typical for industrial I/O)
• Output Voltage: 24V DC (common for relay-based or solid-state I/O)
• Communication Interface: Compatible with the GE 90-30 PLC via the GE Genius I/O Bus.
• Isolation: Typically includes electrical isolation between inputs and outputs.
• Power Supply: Powered by the PLC backplane or an external source, depending on configuration.

Product Specifications:

• Digital Inputs: 8 discrete input points for signal detection from field devices such as switches or sensors.
• Digital Outputs: 8 discrete output points for controlling devices such as actuators, solenoids, or relays.
• Electrical Isolation: Typically provides isolation between I/O circuits to protect the PLC and field devices.
• Operating Voltage: 24V DC for both inputs and outputs.
• Temperature Range: Typically operates in a temperature range from 0°C to 60°C (32°F to 140°F).
• Mounting: Designed to be mounted on a DIN rail or installed in a compatible remote I/O rack.

Product Use:

The GE IC690RFH008 module is primarily used in industrial automation systems for:

1. Remote I/O Expansion: Allows for expanding the number of digital I/O points in a GE Fanuc 90-30 PLC system, enabling the connection of more field devices.
2. Industrial Control Systems: Commonly used in manufacturing, process control, and other automated systems where discrete inputs and outputs are required.
3. Distributed Control: Ideal for distributed control systems, where I/O modules are located at different locations in the plant, yet are controlled by a central PLC.
4. Field Device Integration: Useful for integrating sensors, switches, actuators, and other field devices into the automation system via a remote I/O network.
