GE IC693CPU372-AE Output module

GE Output Modules Overview

General Electric (GE) offers a variety of output modules for use in their Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and Distributed Control Systems (DCSs). These modules translate signals from the control system into the voltage and current required to drive external devices such as valves, motor starters, indicator lights, etc.

Product Detailed Description

• Function:

• Receives digital or analog signals from the PLC or DCS controller.

• Converts these signals into corresponding output signals (voltage or current).

• Drives external actuators or other output devices.

• Provides isolation to protect the control system from field device influences.

• Some modules may have diagnostic functions to detect faults in the output circuit.

• Features:

• Available in various types, including Digital Output (DO), Analog Output (AO), and Relay Output.

• Different voltage and current ratings to suit the needs of various field devices.

• Modular design for easy installation and replacement.

• High reliability and strong anti-interference capability.

• Some modules support hot-swapping.

• May include short-circuit protection, overload protection, etc.
