Description

Product Overview
The GE IC697CHS770 is a 6-slot Dual Redundant Rear Mount I/O Rack designed for mission-critical industrial automation systems, belonging to the GE Fanuc Series 90-70 platform. This advanced rack combines modular flexibility with high availability, making it ideal for applications where downtime is unacceptable. The IC697CHS770 supports dual power supply inputs and redundant communication pathways, ensuring continuous operation in environments such as power generation, oil refineries, and chemical processing plants.

 

Featuring a rear-mount design, the IC697CHS770 optimizes space in control panels while accommodating all IC697 PLC modules, including CPUs, I/O cards, and communication processors. Its VMEbus architecture enables high-speed data transfer between modules, ensuring real-time response in demanding scenarios. The rack’s slot sensing technology eliminates manual addressing, streamlining installation and reducing configuration errors. With support for both AC and DC power inputs, the IC697CHS770 offers flexibility in power sourcing, while its redundant power supply capability (via IC697PWR713RR) ensures continuous operation even during power fluctuations or failures.

 

In industrial settings, the IC697CHS770 serves as the backbone of distributed control systems (DCS), enabling seamless integration with SCADA and other higher-level systems. Its rugged construction withstands extreme temperatures, vibrations, and electromagnetic interference, ensuring reliable performance in harsh environments. By consolidating multiple modules into a single enclosure, the rack reduces cabling complexity and enhances system maintainability.

Key Features and Advantages
Dual Power Redundancy: The IC697CHS770 supports two independent power supply inputs, ensuring continuous operation even if one power source fails. This feature is critical in applications like offshore platforms and nuclear facilities, where power interruptions could lead to catastrophic consequences.

 

Redundant Communication: Equipped with dual Ethernet and RS-485 ports, the rack enables failover communication between control systems. This redundancy minimizes data loss and ensures uninterrupted monitoring and control.

 

Modular Flexibility: The rack accommodates up to six I/O modules, allowing users to scale systems from basic control to advanced automation. Its VMEbus architecture supports high-speed data transfer rates, making it suitable for real-time applications like turbine control and robotics.

 

Rugged Design: Built with industrial-grade materials, the IC697CHS770 withstands extreme temperatures, humidity, and vibrations. Its IP54-rated enclosure protects against dust and water ingress, ensuring reliable performance in harsh environments.

 

User-Friendly Configuration: The rack is easily configured using GE Fanuc’s Configurator software, which allows users to assign I/O points, set alarm thresholds, and monitor module health without specialized training.

 

Applications
The IC697CHS770 is specifically engineered for industries requiring high availability:

 

  • Power Generation: Ensuring continuous operation of steam turbines, generators, and boiler control systems.
  • Oil and Gas: Safeguarding offshore platforms, refineries, and pipeline monitoring systems.
  • Chemical Processing: Managing reactors, distillation columns, and safety interlock systems.
  • Pharmaceuticals: Maintaining sterile environments and critical process control in manufacturing.
  • Transportation: Supporting rail and subway systems with fail-safe control mechanisms.

 

By combining redundancy with modularity, the IC697CHS770 reduces mean time to repair (MTTR) and extends mean time between failures (MTBF), delivering a low total cost of ownership.

Installation and Maintenance
Pre-Installation Preparation:
Ensure the control panel is properly grounded and ventilated. Verify the IC697CHS770 dimensions (19” W x 13.4” H x 11.8” D) fit the enclosure. Install dual power supply modules (IC697PWR713RR) in the leftmost slots and secure all modules with captive screws. Use shielded cables for I/O connections to minimize interference.

 

Maintenance Recommendations:
Regularly inspect the rack for loose connections or physical damage. Use GE Fanuc’s Configurator software to monitor power supply health and communication link status. Perform annual calibration checks for analog modules and replace batteries in memory modules (e.g., IC697MEM715) every 2–3 years. Test power supply failover and communication redundancy annually to ensure operational integrity.

 

Product Warranty
The IC697CHS770 comes with a 1-year warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship. We offer 24/7 technical support and a 3-day delivery guarantee for in-stock orders. Our global service network ensures rapid response to maintenance requests, minimizing downtime.
