GE IC697VAL134

Usage Parameters

Input Type: The GE IC697VAL134 is an analog-to-digital conversion board for analog voltage input. Number of Channels: The board provides 31 isolated scanning channels, and the signals on any channel can be converted almost simultaneously. This is very important in applications where multiple sensors or signal sources need to be monitored simultaneously.

Resolution: It is worth noting that the resolution of the conversion board is 12 bits, which means that it can distinguish small changes in the input analog voltage and produce accurate digital output values. Higher resolution allows users to make more precise measurements and controls in various industrial operations.

Input Voltage Range: The normal input voltage range that the GE IC697VAL134 can handle makes it compatible with a variety of sensors and signal sources that produce analog voltage outputs in industrial control system applications.

Product Function

Analog-to-Digital Conversion: One of the main functions of the IC697VAL134 is to convert analog voltage signals into digital data that can be adequately processed by a programmable logic controller (PLC) or other digital control system. This conversion process is critical in applications where analog sensors and devices form an integral part of modern digital control architectures.

Isolation Scanning: The function of the board's isolated scanning channels provides enhanced electrical isolation. This prevents interference and signal attenuation, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the converted digital signal, especially in industrial environments with a lot of electrical noise.

Data transmission: It can relay the converted digital information to the connected PLC or control system through a standard communication interface. This allows the analog input signal to be transmitted to the entire control and monitoring system for real-time decision-making and process control.

Compatibility: The IC697VAL134 is set to establish compatibility with GE's versatile VersaMax series PLCs and other related control products. This compatibility simplifies the integration and configuration of the system; therefore, it can easily put existing GE control systems into use without major changes or the need for additional hardware.

Application Scope

Industrial Automation: In production plants, the IC697VAL134 is widely used to monitor and control various processes. For example, it plays an important role in measuring parameters such as temperature, pressure, flow, and liquid level by acquiring data from the corresponding analog sensors. The accuracy of its analog-to-digital conversion, coupled with its high reliability in direct data transmission, controls and optimizes industrial processes, thereby improving product quality, increasing productivity, and reducing production costs.

Process Control: In the chemical, pharmaceutical or food processing industries, it is important to control process variables with high accuracy. The IC697VAL134 provides the precise measurement and control required, allowing the use of closed-loop control systems to ensure process stability, product consistency and adherence to strict quality and safety standards. Building and System Automation: Control panels are a suitable method for regulating or monitoring environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity and air quality. When combined with adequate sensors and control devices, this can promote energy-efficient operation of HVAC systems and entire buildings.

Power Generation and Distribution: In power plants and electrical switchyards, the IC697VAL134 is used to measure and monitor electrical parameters such as voltage, current and power. This is essential for efficient power generation, distribution and grid management, ensuring that the power supply is normal and protecting electrical equipment from potential damage.
