The GE IC698PSA350 is a 350-watt AC power supply module designed for the PACSystems RX7i series of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). Its main function is to provide the necessary power to the RX7i backplane and all the modules installed in it.
Key Features and Specifications
- High Power Output: The module provides a total output of 350 watts to power the RX7i’s CPU and I/O modules. This makes it a high-capacity option for systems with a large number of modules or those with high power demands.
- Wide Input Voltage Range: It can operate with an input voltage from 85 to 264 VAC at a frequency of 47-63 Hz, and also supports a DC input range of 100-150 VDC. This flexibility makes it suitable for a wide range of industrial power systems.
- Multiple Outputs: The power supply provides three different DC voltages to the backplane: +5 VDC, +12 VDC, and -12 VDC, with the majority of the power delivered on the +5 VDC rail.
- Forced Air Cooling: Due to its high power output, the IC698PSA350 requires forced air cooling to operate at its full capacity. This is typically provided by a fan tray mounted on the bottom of the RX7i rack. The module includes an internal airflow sensor that can detect a fan failure or blockage and shut down to prevent overheating.
- Protection and Diagnostics: The module has built-in protection against over-voltage, over-current, and over-temperature fault conditions. It also has status LEDs on the front panel to indicate the operational status of the power supply and its outputs.
- Slot Placement: This power supply module occupies a single slot and must be installed in the first slot (slot 0) of the RX7i backplane.
