Overview

The IC697MDL340 is an Output Module from GE. It is part of GE's industrial automation product portfolio.

Application & Technical Notes

As an output module, the IC697MDL340 is intended for deployment in panel-based control cabinets and machine enclosures where the GE product portfolio equipment is installed. It drives actuators, relays, valves and indicators from controller commands, acting as the actuation layer between logic and the machine.

Specific electrical and mechanical ratings depend on the exact configuration and suffix of the part; the original datasheet should be consulted for the definitive specification.

Maintenance & Diagnostics

Verify field wiring, shielding and grounding at installation; check terminal torque and confirm signal types match the configured range. Periodically inspect for loose terminations, induced noise and channel-level diagnostics reported by the controller. Always de-energise the circuit and follow lock-out/tag-out before handling; refer to the official instruction bulletin for service procedures.

Sourcing & Procurement

When sourcing the IC697MDL340, distinguish three supply tiers: (1) genuine GE stock from an authorised distributor; (2) compatible equivalents or surplus/NOS (new-old-stock) from third parties; (3) alternative parts offering equivalent function. Genuine supply carries the full warranty and traceability; compatible or alternative items may be cheaper but should be validated for form, fit, firmware and certification before use in a live system. PLCXpert publishes this page as an independent reference and does not sell the part — verify every claim with the manufacturer or your distributor.

Confirm the module matches your GE product portfolio rack, the required channel count, signal type and voltage, and the firmware/configuration of the controller. Lead times and pricing vary by region and lifecycle status; obtain a current quote from an authorised channel rather than relying on stale listings.

Specifications

The IC697MDL340 output module is manufactured by GE Intelligent Platforms/GE Fanuc as a member of Series 90-70. It has a rated voltage of 120 Volts AC and 16 output points that are divided into 4 isolated groups.

Description

Note	The IC697MDL340 output module is a product from GE Intelligent Platforms/GE Fanuc that is manufactured as a member of Series 90-70. This module has 120 Volts AC rated voltage with a total of 16 points isolated in 4 different groups. Each of the isolated groups has a capacity of 4 Amps per group and 2 Amps per point, with 10x inrush current. This GE Fanuc discrete output module is designed and intended to enable the groups of output points to operate as separate phases of the AC power supply. It features 4 groups of outputs that are fused separately with a fuse rated at 10 Amps. The IC697MDL340 output module provides a high-level inrush current making the outputs suitable for several incandescent and inductive loads. This GE Fanuc IC697MDL340 output module works with most Size 4 contactors. It comes with LED indicators on top of the device for showing the on and off status of each point on the circuit’s PLC side. It also has an LED that shows the status of the fuses that are grouped on the top of the module. The GE Fanuc IC697MDL340 output module is mechanically keyed, thus guaranteeing that the right replacement can be made with the same type of module in the field. The operators can execute the configuration of the I/O references without needing jumpers and DIP switches. The GE Fanuc IC697MDL340 output module is compatible and can work with different load devices, like the motor starters, solenoids, and indicators. Each output point has a current rating of 2 Amps that relates to the long-term capacity of each of the points. Since the module dissipates heat from within, the current capacity of each group is limited to 4 Amps.
