IC695ALG704 GE Fanuc RX3i Analog Output Module

Overview:

The GE Fanuc IC695ALG704 is a versatile analog output module designed for use within the PACSystem RX3i platform, now part of Emerson Automation. This non-isolated module offers four configurable output channels, each capable of generating a variety of signals such as +/- 10 VDC, 0-10 VDC, and 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA outputs. Widely used in industrial automation, it serves to modulate and control field devices like control valves, positioners, and dampers. The IC695ALG704 is suitable for applications requiring precise signal conditioning and output, including interfacing with data loggers, isolators, and panel meters.
