General Electric IC630MDL304 Series Three Combination Input and Output Module

Quantity

Product Description

Description

The General Electric IC630MDL304 is a dual-function combination input and output module designed for the Series Three PLC platform. This robust unit integrates 16 discrete input circuits and 16 discrete output circuits into a single module, optimizing panel space and system architecture. The input circuits are engineered to receive standard ON/OFF signals from user-supplied field devices such as limit switches, pushbuttons, and relay contacts. Simultaneously, the output circuits provide reliable control capabilities for various industrial loads, including motor starters, indicator lights, and relay coils.

Requiring an external 24 VDC power supply, the module accurately senses input states while supplying operational DC power to the output switching circuits. Field wiring is efficiently managed through a faceplate-mounted 36 screw-terminal connector, divided evenly into top input terminals and lower output terminals to simplify installation and maintenance.

Features

    16 Input Circuits: Designed for 24 VDC operation with a nominal input current of 7 mA. 16 Output Circuits: Capable of switching up to 0.5 Amps per point with built-in internal fusing for enhanced protection. Compact Dual-Function Design: Combines 32 total I/O points into a single slot space, conserving valuable backplane real estate. Flexible Field Termination: Features a secure 36 screw-terminal connector supporting up to No. 12 AWG wiring. Robust Protection: Includes integrated internal fuses on output common lines and low leakage current thresholds.

Applications

    Discrete manufacturing automation and assembly lines Process control and monitoring systems Machine tool control panels Material handling and conveyor systems Packaging and sorting machinery

Connections / Interfaces

Field connections for the IC630MDL304 are established via a 36 screw-terminal connector integrated directly into the module faceplate. The terminal layout is divided into two distinct groups of 16 terminals: the upper 16 terminals are dedicated to the 16 input circuits, and the lower 16 terminals are assigned to the 16 output circuits. Each individual terminal accommodates a single No. 12 AWG wire or up to two No. 14 AWG wires, ensuring secure termination for heavy-duty industrial environments.

Installation Guidelines

Ensure all external power supplies are disconnected before installing or removing the module from the Series Three base. Insert the module evenly into the designated I/O slot, ensuring proper backplane alignment before securing the unit. Keep in mind that as a 32-point I/O module, it consumes 32 consecutive I/O references corresponding to its assigned slot configuration. Maintain adequate spacing around the chassis to support thermal dissipation, especially when operating multiple output channels near maximum current capacity.
