The GE IC694TBB032 is a 32-point Box-Style Terminal Block used with GE’s PACSystems RX3i and RX7i PLC I/O modules. It’s an accessory, not a functional electronic component, and its main purpose is to provide a physical interface for connecting field wiring to the PLC.
Key Features
- Box-Style Terminals: This type of terminal block uses screw clamps to secure the wires. This design provides a strong, reliable electrical connection that’s well-suited for industrial environments.
- 32-Point Capacity: The “32” in the part number indicates it can terminate up to 32 wires, matching the I/O count of many compatible modules.
- Compatibility: It is designed to mount directly onto a variety of 32-point I/O modules in the RX3i and RX7i families, including both discrete and some analog modules.
- Physical Interface: It provides an organized and secure way to manage the complex wiring between the PLC and devices like sensors, actuators, and switches on the factory floor.
Applications
The IC694TBB032 is a standard component in any industrial automation system utilizing compatible GE PACSystems. It is used for:
- New Installations: Provides the crucial connection points for all new field wiring.
- Maintenance and Upgrades: Used to replace damaged terminal blocks or to simplify the process of rewiring during system modifications.
- Organized Wiring: Helps maintain a neat and easily traceable wiring system, which is essential for efficient troubleshooting.
