Features:
- Module of GE Fanuc series 90-30 PLC systems
- Series 90-30, 12/24 VDC Positive logic output module
- Module with embedded Electronic Short Circuit Protection (ESCP)
The primary function of this module is to provide electrically isolated switching outputs for controlling field devices such as contactors, solenoid valves, alarms, and motor starters. The module uses relay contacts as the output switching element, supporting various load types, including AC and DC circuits, while maintaining reliable electrical isolation between the control system and external devices.
In practical industrial applications, the IC693MDL742 enhances control flexibility and power handling capabilities, making it particularly suitable for environments requiring electrical isolation and load compatibility. Relay outputs allow for the safe switching of high-voltage or mixed-load devices without directly exposing PLC electronics to external power circuitry. Its multi-channel configuration supports centralized control of multiple actuators in production lines, process systems, and automation equipment, simplifying wiring and improving system reliability.
The IC693MDL742 GENERAL ELECTRIC Positive logic output module may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

The IC693MDL742 operates based on the electromagnetic relay switching principle and is controlled by digital output signals from the PLC CPU. When the controller activates a specific output channel, the module energizes the corresponding internal relay coil, causing the relay contacts to close or open, thereby switching the connected field load. This relay mechanism achieves electrical isolation between the control logic and the output power circuitry, ensuring safe and reliable operation under industrial load conditions.
