Description
Product Overview
The GE IC695ALG508 is a high-precision isolated RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) input module designed for industrial automation systems requiring accurate temperature measurement in harsh environments. As part of GE’s PACSystems RX3i platform, this module integrates seamlessly with PLCs and distributed control systems (DCS) to enable real-time monitoring of critical temperature parameters in applications such as chemical processing, food manufacturing, and pharmaceutical production.
Supporting 32-bit IEEE floating-point resolution and a wide range of RTD types (platinum, nickel, copper, and nickel-iron), the IC695ALG508 delivers ±0.1% full-scale accuracy across its operational range. Its 250V AC continuous isolation ensures reliable performance in electrically noisy environments, while the configurable notch filter (2.3 Hz to 28 Hz) minimizes interference from mechanical vibrations or electromagnetic fields10.
Engineered for rugged industrial use, the module operates efficiently between -40°C and +85°C and supports hot-swappable installation, allowing maintenance without system downtime. By reducing complexity and improving scalability, the IC695ALG508 empowers engineers to design robust temperature monitoring systems that meet evolving industrial demands.
