Product Overview

The GE Fanuc IC697MDL940 is a relay output module for Series 90-70 PLC racks, used to switch field loads that require isolated, dry-contact control. It provides 16 relay outputs for driving contactors, solenoids, interposing relays, alarms, and mixed AC/DC devices. The module combines Form A and Form C contacts to support both simple on/off switching and changeover (SPDT) control where required.

Designed for industrial panels, the module includes per-channel protection and suppression components to improve reliability when switching inductive loads. Front-panel indicators support quick verification of output status during commissioning and troubleshooting.
