The GE IC695FTB1S132 is a Fiber I/O terminal block kit designed for the PACSystems RX3i series, specifically for use with the PACMotion Multi-Axis Motion Controller (IC695PMM335). This kit is an essential accessory that allows for the connection of motion-related I/O via a fiber optic interface.
This kit includes the IC695FTB001 base module and two IC694TBS032 spring-clamp terminal blocks.
Key Features
- High-Density I/O Expansion: The terminal block provides a variety of inputs and outputs specifically for motion control applications. It can be configured for functions like touch probe inputs, over-travel limit switches, home switches, and A/B/Z quadrature encoder inputs.
- Fiber Optic Interface: The use of fiber optics is a key feature, providing immunity to electrical noise and allowing for electrical isolation between the PLC and the field devices. This is crucial for maintaining signal integrity in electrically noisy industrial environments.
- Spring-Clamp Terminals: The kit includes IC694TBS032 spring-clamp terminals, which offer a faster, more secure, and more vibration-resistant alternative to traditional screw terminals. This simplifies installation and reduces the risk of connection failures in harsh environments.
- Distributed I/O: The fiber optic connection allows the I/O to be located up to 100 meters away from the RX3i rack, which can significantly reduce the complexity and cost of wiring.
