Description
Product Overview
The GE IC695ALG600CA is a high-performance analog output module designed for GE’s PACSystems RX3i platform, engineered to deliver precise control signals in demanding industrial environments. This module provides 6 isolated output channels capable of generating voltage (±10V) or current (0–20mA, 4–20mA) signals with 16-bit resolution and ±0.1% accuracy, ensuring reliable actuation of valves, motors, and variable-speed drives. As part of GE’s RX3i distributed control architecture, it integrates seamlessly with PLCs like the IC695CPU315, enabling real-time process optimization and predictive maintenance. Built for harsh conditions, the IC695ALG600CA features channel-to-channel isolation (1500V AC), IP67 protection (with cover), and an extended operating temperature range (-40°C to +70°C), making it ideal for chemical plants, power generation facilities, and manufacturing lines where signal integrity and robustness are critical. Its hot-swappable design minimizes downtime during maintenance, while compatibility with EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, and Modbus TCP protocols facilitates seamless integration into existing SCADA or DCS networks.

Key Features and Advantages
Precision Output Control:
The IC695ALG600CA leverages 16-bit digital-to-analog conversion to deliver ±0.1% signal accuracy, critical for applications like valve positioning or motor speed regulation. Each channel independently configures for voltage/current output, eliminating external signal conditioners and reducing system complexity.
Industrial Resilience:
Dual isolation barriers (1500V AC between channels) prevent ground loops and electromagnetic interference in noisy environments near VFDs or heavy machinery. The module withstands extreme temperatures (-40°C to +70°C) and 15G mechanical shocks, ensuring reliability in mobile equipment or offshore platforms.
Operational Efficiency:
With a 100 Hz update rate per channel, the module enables real-time control for dynamic processes such as turbine speed adjustment or pH neutralization. Integrated diagnostics via GE Proficy software detect open-circuit, short-circuit, and overrange faults, reducing troubleshooting time by 30%. Hot-swap capability allows maintenance without system shutdown.
Application Areas
- Manufacturing: Controls servo-driven assembly lines via 0–10V signals for precise motor speed regulation in automotive production.

Installation and Maintenance
Installation Preparation: Mount in an RX3i universal backplane (e.g., IC695CHS012). Verify firmware ≥V2.80. Use shielded twisted-pair cables grounded at one end; separate high-voltage wiring (>120V) by ≥15cm to prevent noise interference.
Maintenance Recommendations: Calibrate annually with traceable voltage/current sources. Clean terminals quarterly using isopropyl alcohol to prevent oxidation. Replace if “Module Fault” LED persists or after 10 years of service.
