GE IC695NKT001 RX3i Ethernet NIU Kit includes

The IC695NKT001 kit is a pre-packaged solution to simplify ordering and ensure a complete assembly for an Ethernet-based remote I/O station. The kit includes:

  • IC695NIU001 Network Interface Unit (NIU): This module is the “brain” of the remote I/O station. It manages the communication with the main PLC and controls the I/O modules in its local rack. It also has two built-in serial ports (RS-232 and RS-485) and 20K of optional local logic memory. The NIU occupies two slots on the universal backplane.
  • IC695ETM001 Ethernet Module: This module provides the physical Ethernet port (10/100 Mbps) for the NIU. It connects the remote I/O station to the main PLC’s network via Ethernet. The ETM module occupies one slot on the backplane.

The NIU and ETM modules work together to create a slave I/O station that automatically exchanges data with a master PLC using protocols like Ethernet Global Data (EGD). The entire kit requires three slots on an RX3i universal backplane.

Application

 

The IC695NKT001 kit is used for building distributed control systems where I/O points are geographically separated from the main PLC. It provides a cost-effective alternative to running long, individual wiring runs and allows for a more scalable and flexible system architecture.
