Introduction

The GE IC694MDL940 Discrete Output Module is a high-reliability relay output module designed for use in GE PACSystems PLC architectures. It provides electrically isolated switching for a wide range of industrial loads, including motors, solenoids, relays, and indicator devices. With 16 individually isolated normally open relay outputs, the IC694MDL940 enables flexible and safe control of AC and DC field devices in demanding automation environments.

Built for industrial durability and versatility, the IC694MDL940 supports both AC (up to 250 V) and DC (up to 30 V) switching, making it suitable for mixed-voltage applications. Its four-group output structure and LED status indicators provide clear diagnostics and organized channel management. With robust isolation, long mechanical life, and reliable response performance, the IC694MDL940 is well-suited for process control, manufacturing systems, and general-purpose industrial automation.
