Product Overview
The GE IC697MDL652 is a 32-point discrete input module engineered for industrial automation systems based on the GE Fanuc Series 90-70 platform. Optimized for low-voltage applications, this module supports 12 VDC input signals with positive/negative logic flexibility, making it ideal for battery-powered devices, proximity switches, and sensor networks requiring moderate voltage levels. Unlike its 5 VDC (IC697MDL651) and 24 VDC (IC697MDL653) counterparts, the IC697MDL652 bridges the gap for systems demanding 12 VDC compatibility, such as medical equipment, portable industrial tools, and remote monitoring systems .
The module consolidates 32 inputs into four isolated groups of 8 points each, ensuring noise immunity and fault isolation. With selectable input filtering (1 ms for fast signals, 10 ms for noisy environments) and a configurable interrupt channel, the IC697MDL652 balances precision and reliability in diverse industrial settings . Its compact form factor and DIN rail/panel-mount design minimize rack space while simplifying installation.
