Description
Product Overview
The GE IC660EPM100J is a high-performance Genius I/O PowerTrac Block designed for industrial power monitoring and automation applications. As part of GE Fanuc’s Genius I/O series, this module integrates advanced power analysis and data transmission capabilities, making it ideal for monitoring single-phase or three-phase power systems in manufacturing, energy, and water treatment facilities. It supports 115/230VAC or 125VDC inputs and features dual-voltage compatibility, ensuring flexibility in diverse power environments.
Engineered to calculate critical power parameters, the GE IC660EPM100J monitors voltage and current inputs from potential and current transformers, storing digitized waveform values to compute metrics such as kilowatt hours, active power, RMS voltage, reactive power, and power factor. These calculations are transmitted to a host PLC or computer at 2-second intervals, enabling real-time system optimization. The module also supports local data visualization via a Genius Handheld Monitor (HHM), allowing operators to access critical metrics directly at the device level.
The GE IC660EPM100J is designed for scalability and ease of integration. It connects to a Genius Bus and can be installed up to 7,500 feet away from the host system, making it suitable for distributed control scenarios. Its modular design separates the electronics assembly (IC660EPM100J) from the terminal block (sold separately, e.g., IC660TBM100), ensuring quick replacement without disrupting wiring or configuration. This modularity also supports field upgrades and simplifies maintenance, reducing downtime in mission-critical applications.
