Product Role & System Fit
The GE IC697MDL350 is a discrete output module designed specifically for integration with the Series 90-70 PLC backplane system from GE Fanuc. It is not a standalone controller, but rather a vital component in a rack-based architecture where processing, I/O, and communication modules work in harmony to achieve automated control.
Slotting into the I/O section of a Series 90-70 rack (typically positioned adjacent to other MDL modules), the GE IC697MDL350 provides 32 individual output channels that emanate control signals from the CPU to field devices. Each group of eight points is electrically isolated from the others, enhancing noise immunity and permitting phase separation in multi-phase AC systems.
This module aligns with GE’s robust VME C.1 rack standards, ensuring electrical and mechanical compatibility with legacy cabinets and signal wiring. That means whether you are retrofitting an older system or replacing a failed output card, the GE IC697MDL350 can be fitted without requiring rack redesign or special adaptors — provided the rack adheres to Series 90-70 specifications.
From an automation system perspective, discrete output modules like this one are complementary to analog I/O and communication cards. The CPU sends final actuation decisions — such as “energize contactor” or “start pump” — through the output points on the GE IC697MDL350, while inputs and sensor readings flow back through dedicated digital input modules. This segregation of functions simplifies troubleshooting and reduces the potential for logic conflicts in large control applications.
