الوصف

The GE IC695CHS016 is a 16-slot universal backplane for the PACSystems RX3i series of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), now a part of Emerson Automation. It is a passive backplane that serves as the foundation for an RX3i system, providing the physical structure and electrical connections for all the modules.


 

Key Features

 

  • Universal Backplane: The “universal” designation means it can accept any combination of RX3i modules, including the CPU, power supply, and various I/O and communication modules. This provides flexibility for system design.
  • 16 Slots: The “016” in the part number indicates that the backplane has 16 module slots.
  • Module Placement: The first slot (leftmost) is for the power supply, the second slot is for the CPU, and the remaining 14 slots can be populated with other modules.
  • High-Speed Communication: The backplane acts as a high-speed bus, allowing the modules to communicate with the CPU. It provides the power and data pathways necessary for the system to function.
  • Hot Swap Capability: The design of the universal backplane, in conjunction with compatible modules, allows for hot swapping. This means modules can be inserted or removed while the system is powered, which is crucial for reducing downtime during maintenance.
