About the IC200ALG320

The IC200ALG320 is an analogue output module, part of the VersaMax family of distributed I/O modules.

Formerly manufactured by GE Intelligent Platforms, it is now part of Emerson Automation.

The module is typically used as part of a distributed or remote I/O network, often for medium to large control systems, to

Eliminates long signal runs and helps build robust and scalable control systems.

The IC200ALG320 has four (4) single-ended analogue output channels that produce a 4-20 mA output current signal with 4 μA resolution.

It is particularly suitable for automatic closed-loop control systems as well as manual or open-loop control systems for analogue signal tracking devices.

Examples include control valves, dampers, shutters, positioners, variable frequency drives (VFDs) and similar operating devices.

It can also be used for signal retransmission purposes, such as providing an output signal representing a calculated variable within a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC).

for terminating signal splitters or signal isolators, panel meters for local readouts, data loggers for historicisation, single loop controllers or other PLCs, and for the use of the PLC as an interface.

single-loop controllers or other PLCs for advanced and complex architectures with cascaded controllers.

The IC200ALG320 is fitted with two (2) status LEDs.

Examples include the FLD PWR LED, which indicates the presence of field power, and the OK LED, which describes continuous power from the backplane power supply.

The module also features detection of user-side power and configurable output defaults in response to CPU stops or module faults (such as holding *back state or outputs dropping to 4 mA).

The IC200ALG320 module is an analogue output module designed by GE Fanuc Automation and included in the Versamax family of I/O modules.

This particular module is equipped with four analogue current source outputs with current ratings ranging from 4 to 20 mA. These outputs provide an average current rating of 20.38 mA.

The module operates only when connected to a www.cniacs.com backplane power supply, and the outputs require an external power supply of 18-30VDC or 9.6 to 15 VDC.

Module processing* is ultimately performed by the CPU or main network interface unit connected to the module.

The GE Fanuc Automation IC200ALG320 Analogue Output Module comes with 2 different LEDs that

show the presence of power on the user side of the analogue circuits, and an OK indicator, which lights up when backplane power is present in the module.

The GE Fanuc Automation IC200ALG320 Analogue Output Module includes diagnostic tools to create reports showing the loss of user-side power failures for live circuits.

The module is set up with a jumper that helps the outputs maintain their * post state.

This feature is important when power is interrupted. The module needs to remain connected to the power supply to avoid data loss and needs to be checked before installation.

The GE Fanuc Automation IC200ALG320 analogue output module has isolation between the user inputs and the logic and frame ground.

This ground is rated at 250 volts AC continuous and 1500 volts AC for 1 minute.

The IC200MDL744 discrete output module provides a green “FLD PWR” LED to indicate whether field power is applied to the module.

The IC200MDL744 discrete output module provides a green “FLD PWR” indicator to indicate whether field power is applied to the module and an “OK” LED to indicate the presence of backplane power. It also has a 0.2 ms turn-on response time and a 1 ms turn-off response time.

When inductive loads are connected to the outputs, the use of an external suppression circuit is recommended. The thermal derating of the module depends on several factors.

such as ambient temperature, voltage level, and orientation of the module. It has 250 volts AC, user input to logic,

user input to logic, user input to frame, and group to group isolation voltages. It does not have point-to-point isolation.

The IC200MDL744 Discrete Output Module requires a NIU or CPU in the Versamax PLC to perform intelligent processing for industrial applications.
