Additionally, with its low power draw of only 7 mA from the 5V bus, it minimizes the thermal load on the PLC power supply even when all 16 relays are energized.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #303f9f;\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; padding: 8px; text-align: left;\"\u003eFeature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; padding: 8px; text-align: left;\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003eGE Fanuc (Emerson)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003eModel Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003eIC693MDL940\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003eOutputs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e16 Points (4 Groups of 4)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003eLoad Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e2 Amps per point (Max)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnit Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e0.4 kg (0.88 lbs)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003eOperating Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #dddddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e5-250 VAC \/ 5-30 VDC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #303f9f;\"\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Wiring Guidelines\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen installing the \u003cstrong style=\"color: #303f9f;\"\u003eGE Fanuc IC693MDL940\u003c\/strong\u003e, ensure the PLC rack power is disconnected before insertion. \u003cstrong\u003eThe 0.4 kg unit\u003c\/strong\u003e fits into any I\/O slot of the Series 90-30 baseplate. Because the module can switch up to 250 VAC, users must adhere to local wiring codes, particularly regarding point-to-point isolation. The module supports a maximum common load of 4 Amps per group. It is recommended to use surge suppression (such as MOV or RC snubbers) when driving inductive loads to extend the mechanical life of the relay contacts and prevent EMI interference with adjacent modules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #303f9f;\"\u003eEngineering Advantages\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineers prefer the \u003cstrong style=\"color: #303f9f;\"\u003eIC693MDL940\u003c\/strong\u003e for its high-density relay count, which significantly reduces the number of modules required for large-scale output control.
