GE IC698CHS009A

GE IC698CHS009A is a 9-slot modular rack in the General Electric (GE) Fanuc series, specifically designed for industrial automation systems. It supports the installation of components such as CPU modules, I/O modules, and communication modules, and is widely used in industries including manufacturing, energy, transportation, and water treatment. Its core function is to provide a modular, scalable installation platform for industrial control systems, ensuring stable operation and flexible configuration.

Product Parameters

Basic Parameters

• Number of slots: 9 (expandable to 10 slots).
• Operating voltage: 220V (some modules are 24VDC).
• Output frequency: 0.5 Hz to 200 Hz (applicable to inverter modules).
• Power: 350 W (some modules are 2 W).
• Dimensions: 11 inches (H) × 9 inches (W) × 7 inches (D), or 11.15 inches (H) × 12.6 inches (W) × 7.25 inches (D).
• Weight: Approximately 3.6 kg to 6.0 kg (depending on configuration).

Environment and Compatibility

• Operating temperature: -20°C to +60°C (some modules support -40°C to +85°C).
• Protection rating: IP20 (some models feature IP67).
• Compatibility: Supports RX7i and Series 90-70 series modules, and is compatible with communication protocols such as Modbus RTU/TCP and CAN.

Product Features

High Performance and Reliability

• Adopts advanced control technology, supporting redundant CPU and high-availability power supply solutions to ensure stable system operation.
• Compatible with multiple programming languages (e.g., ladder logic, function block diagram) for easy user development and debugging.

Modularity and Scalability

• 9 slots allow flexible configuration, supporting single-width and double-width modules (slot spacing: 0.8 inches/20.3 mm).
• Can be expanded to 10 slots via expansion kits to meet complex industrial requirements.

Communication and Security

• Built-in Ethernet interface, supporting SRTP and Modbus TCP/IP protocols for remote monitoring and data transmission.
• Equipped with automatic daisy-chain function, eliminating the need for DIP switches or jumpers to simplify I/O addressing.

Installation and Maintenance

• Supports DIN rail or panel mounting; cooling methods include fan cooling and natural ventilation.
• Requires proper grounding connections (AWG #698 wires) and power GND grounding to reduce electromagnetic interference.

Structure and Composition

Module Slots

• Slot 1 is exclusively for CPU modules; the remaining slots (1-8) support single-width modules, and slot 9 supports double-width modules.
• The backplane integrates connectors to support inter-module communication and power distribution.

Cooling and Installation

• Standard configurations require an additional cooling fan (9-inch space); some models feature built-in fans.
• Attention must be paid to power connections (AWG #12 wires) and grounding requirements during installation to ensure safety.

Application Fields

Industrial Automation

• Control systems in manufacturing, energy, transportation, water treatment, and public utilities.
• Used in scenarios such as production line control, robot control, and data acquisition.

Industry-Specific Solutions

• Gas systems: Monitoring flow, pressure, and temperature parameters.
• Water supply systems: Monitoring pump operation status and water quality.
• Sewage treatment: Controlling dosing, stirring, and sedimentation processes.
• Metallurgical industry: Managing temperature, pressure, and composition during smelting.

Installation and Maintenance

Installation Steps

1. Fix the rack using DIN rails or screws to ensure stability.
2. Install the cooling fan (if required) and connect the power supply and ground wires.

Maintenance Recommendations

• Regularly inspect module connections and heat dissipation systems to ensure no looseness or overheating.
• Use GE Fanuc programming software (e.g., Proficy Logic Developer) for parameter configuration and fault diagnosis.
