The IC693MDL655 delivers robust discrete input expansion for any GE Fanuc Series 90-30 baseplate. This module provides thirty-two 24 VDC input points, organized into four isolated groups with eight channels per group. It accepts a broad 0–30 VDC input range and accommodates both positive and negative logic configurations. With a fast 2 ms on/off response time, the IC693MDL655 works seamlessly with pushbuttons, limit switches, level switches, and proximity sensors. Front-panel LED indicators label each point from A1 to D8, making status verification simple and immediate. This module remains a dependable choice for new system builds and routine stock replenishment.
The IC693MDL655 operates at a nominal input voltage of 24 VDC and handles a full range of 0 to 30 VDC. Its on-state voltage spans 11.5 to 30.0 VDC, while the off-state voltage ranges from 0 to 5 VDC. Typical on-state current is 3.2 mA per channel, and off-state current measures 1.1 mA. Input current at 24 VDC is 7 mA per point. The module draws 195 mA from the 5 VDC backplane and 224 mA from the 24 VDC backplane. Built-in optocouplers provide 1500 V of isolation between the field side and the logic side, ensuring stable operation even in electrically noisy industrial settings.
This module mounts directly into any available I/O slot on a 5-slot or 10-slot Series 90-30 baseplate, which includes CPU, I/O expansion, and remote I/O baseplates. It occupies only a single slot, saving valuable panel space for other critical components. The front panel features two male 24-pin Fujitsu FCN-365P024-AU connectors for all field wiring. The IC693MDL655 operates reliably across a temperature range of 0 to 60 °C and supports humidity levels from 5% to 95% non-condensing. Its compact mechanical design and light weight (0.45 kg) simplify both installation and ongoing maintenance tasks.
A notable advantage of the IC693MDL655 is its flexible wiring scheme. It supports both positive and negative logic, so you can adapt it easily to sinking or sourcing field devices without extra converters. Each group—labeled A, B, C, and D—contains eight inputs, and every channel connects directly to devices like pushbuttons, auxiliary contacts, or BCD thumbwheels. For cabling, you may order pre-wired assemblies such as IC693CBL327 or IC693CBL328. Alternatively, you can build custom cables to match your specific layout requirements. The two front connectors clearly separate the four groups, which significantly reduces wiring errors during initial installation.
Installing the IC693MDL655 follows a simple and logical procedure. First, confirm that the baseplate power is completely off. Next, align the module with the chosen slot and press it firmly into place until the retaining clips engage securely. Then, connect your field wiring using the two 24-pin male connectors. For longer cable runs, use shielded twisted-pair cables to minimize electrical noise interference. Finally, reapply power and verify that the LED indicators for each channel respond correctly to your input signals. On CPU baseplates, the module auto-configures with the embedded or modular CPU, which eliminates any complex parameter setup steps.

1. Can I install the IC693MDL655 on a remote I/O baseplate?
Yes, the IC693MDL655 functions perfectly on any Series 90-30 baseplate, including CPU, expansion, and remote I/O baseplates without any hardware modification.
2. What is the maximum continuous input voltage for this module?
The IC693MDL655 accepts a continuous input range of 0 to 30 VDC; however, the nominal rated voltage is 24 VDC for optimal performance and longevity.
3. Which cables are compatible with this input module?
You can use pre-wired cables IC693CBL327 or IC693CBL328, or you may construct a custom cable using the Fujitsu FCN-365P024-AU connector pinout specification.
4. Does this module support both PNP and NPN field devices?
Absolutely. Because it supports both positive and negative logic wiring, the IC693MDL655 works with sourcing (PNP) and sinking (NPN) devices interchangeably.
5. How is the module shipped and what carriers do you use?
We ship every IC693MDL655 in anti-static packaging and dispatch orders globally using FedEx, UPS, or DHL with a tracking number provided upon shipment.
