الوصف

The GE IC695ALG728 is an Isolated RTD Input Module for the PACSystems RX3i series of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), now part of Emerson Automation. This module is specifically designed for high-resolution temperature measurement using Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs), with the added benefit of electrical isolation.


 

Key Features and Specifications

 

  • Isolated Channels: A crucial feature of this module is that its 8 input channels are isolated from each other and from the backplane. This isolation protects the system from ground loops and electrical noise, which are common in industrial settings and can degrade signal quality.
  • RTD-Specific Design: The module is purpose-built for RTD sensors and can be configured for a variety of RTD types, including:
    • Platinum: 100Ω and 1000Ω
    • Nickel: 120Ω
    • Copper: 10Ω
  • High Resolution: The module features a high-resolution 24-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC), providing highly accurate and stable temperature readings.
  • Configuration: All settings, such as RTD type, wiring (2, 3, or 4-wire), and filtering options, are configured using the Proficy Machine Edition software.
  • Built-in Diagnostics: The module includes diagnostic features to simplify troubleshooting, such as open-wire detection and the ability to report module faults and channel alarms.
  • Hot Swap Capability: The module supports hot insertion and extraction, allowing it to be replaced while the system is powered on, which minimizes downtime.
