IC200MDL740E Functional Description 

The IC200MDL740E General Electric VERSAMAX OUTPUT MODULE represents a versatile 16-point discrete output module within the VersaMax PLC system platform, designed for industrial automation applications requiring reliable switching capabilities. This robust module operates on a nominal 24V DC voltage range while supporting an extended operational spectrum from 10.2 to 30V DC, making the Output Modules IC200MDL740E General Electric adaptable to various industrial power configurations. The sourcing-type outputs deliver 0.5A per point with rapid response times of 0.2ms for activation and 1.0ms for deactivation, ensuring precise control of connected loads in automated processes.

Engineered with efficient power management, the General Electric IC200MDL740E PLC MODULE  consumes less than 45mA from the 5V system supply while managing output loads through external field power connections. The module's thermal performance follows carefully calculated derating curves that account for ambient temperature, external voltage variations, and physical orientation within control panels. These engineering considerations ensure the General Electric IC200MDL740E maintains reliable operation across diverse installation environments while providing visual status indication through integrated LED indicators that remain functional regardless of output load conditions.

The electrical characteristics of the IC200MDL740E Output Modules General Electric include minimal voltage drop of 0.3V maximum and low leakage current below 0.5mA when operating at 30V DC. The module's architecture employs grouped terminal arrangements with DC+ and DC- connections for each 16-point bank, facilitating streamlined wiring implementation. While the module doesn't incorporate channel-to-channel isolation or internal fusing, its design accommodates external suppression circuits for inductive loads as detailed in the VersaMax system documentation.

Compatible with IC200CHS series relay bases, the GE Fanuc IC200MDL740E demonstrates particular effectiveness in applications requiring multiple discrete output operations within compact control architectures. The module's implementation supports optional shorting bar configurations for terminal busing applications while maintaining compliance with industrial automation standards. The proven reliability of the module establishes it as a fundamental component in VersaMax control systems where consistent switching performance and operational durability are essential requirements for industrial automation success.
