Designed for 12V AC signal acquisition, it facilitates robust monitoring across 32 individual input points. These points are organized into four isolated groups of eight, allowing for phase-diverse AC inputs. The module features a 20ms hardware-defined input filter, which effectively suppresses signal chatter and transient noise common in industrial proximity switch and limit switch applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePerformance Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e GE Intelligent Platforms \/ GE Fanuc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.plcsparehub.com\/collections\/ge-series-90-30-series-90-70\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eSeries 90-70\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eIC697MDL252\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInput Capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32 points (4 isolated groups of 8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRated Voltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12V AC (47-63 Hz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurrent Draw:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10mA (On-state) \/ 0.30A (Required internal current)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFiltering Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20ms fixed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDevice Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Limit switches, pushbuttons, and electronic 2-wire\/3-wire proximity sensors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProgramming:\u003c\/strong\u003e Software-configurable via Windows\/MS-DOS utilities (No DIP switches required)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGlobal PLC Spare HUB Insight\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eIC697MDL252\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e remains a staple in legacy Series 90-70 installations due to its IEC Type 1 resistive input characteristic. Engineers value this module because it eliminates the need for manual hardware adjustments—configuration is handled entirely through the Ethernet TCP\/IP or SNP port programming environment.
