GE IC693CBL316

• Humidity: 5% to 95% relative humidity, non-condensing
• Bend Radius: Minimum 25 mm (1 inch)
• Insulation Resistance: Greater than 100 MΩ
• Dielectric Withstanding Voltage: 1500 VAC for 1 minute

Functional Features:

• Provides a reliable connection between a primary and secondary I/O baseplate in a Series 90-30 PLC system.
• Enables expansion of discrete I/O capacity beyond a single baseplate.
• Supports both input and output modules installed on the remote baseplate.
• Fully compatible with Series 90-30 CPU units and expansion configurations.
• No power or configuration required; purely passive signal extension.
• Shielded construction ensures signal integrity in electrically noisy industrial environments.
• Durable insulation and robust connectors withstand repeated installation and mechanical stress.
• Used in conjunction with baseplates such as IC693CHS397 (5-slot) and IC693CHS392 (10-slot).
• Facilitates modular panel design by allowing separation of I/O sections.

Applications:

• Expanding I/O capacity in Series 90-30 PLC systems where additional rack space is limited.
• Connecting remote I/O sections within a control cabinet for improved organization.
• Machine control systems requiring distributed I/O points within a compact area.
• Retrofit and upgrade projects adding discrete I/O without replacing the main CPU rack.
• Industrial automation systems in manufacturing, packaging, and material handling.
• Panel-mounted control systems where physical separation of I/O zones improves serviceability.
• Applications requiring reliable, short-distance signal extension between PLC baseplates.

Compatibility:

• Designed exclusively for GE Fanuc Series 90-30 PLC systems.
• Connects between two Series 90-30 baseplates equipped with expansion ports.
• Compatible with 5-slot (IC693CHS397) and 10-slot (IC693CHS392) baseplates.
• Works with all Series 90-30 CPU and discrete I/O modules.
• Used in configurations requiring local expansion (non-rackless remote I/O).
