الوصف
The GE IC695PSA040CA is an AC power supply module for the PACSystems RX3i series of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). The “CA” suffix indicates that the module is conformal coated, which provides an extra layer of protection for the electronic components.
Key Features and Specifications
- Power Source: This power supply accepts an AC input voltage in the range of 120/240 VAC and can also be used with a 125 VDC input. This makes it versatile for a variety of industrial power systems.
- Output Power: It provides 40 watts of power to the RX3i backplane, which then distributes the power to all the modules in the rack. When designing a system, it’s crucial to ensure the total power consumption of all modules does not exceed this limit.
- Conformal Coating: The “CA” designation signifies that the electronic components on the module are covered with a thin, protective polymer film. This coating safeguards the circuitry from environmental factors like moisture, dust, chemical vapors, and corrosion.
- Dual-Slot Module: This power supply module occupies two adjacent slots on the RX3i universal backplane. It must be installed in the first two slots (leftmost) of the backplane.
- Hot Swap Capability: Like other RX3i modules, it supports hot insertion and extraction, which means it can be replaced while the system is powered on, minimizing downtime.
Applications
The IC695PSA040CA is a fundamental component for any RX3i system that needs to be powered by an AC source, especially in environments where the electronics are exposed to harsh conditions. It is used in:
- Industrial Automation: As the primary power source for the PLC system in manufacturing plants, oil and gas facilities, and other industrial settings.
- Harsh Environments: The conformal coating makes it ideal for use in chemical plants, paper mills, or outdoor applications where the module is exposed to corrosive gases, high humidity, or fine particulates.
- System Integration: Used by engineers to design and assemble robust, reliable control systems for challenging conditions.
