Description
Product Name : IC693CHS398G GE Power module
Product details:
The GE Fanuc IC693CHS398G is a Series 90-30 5-slot Expansion Baseboard. It is designed to extend the I/O capacity of a Series 90-30 Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) system when the main CPU baseboard does not offer enough slots for system requirements. The expansion baseboard connects to the CPU baseboard (or an I/O expansion chain) via an expansion cable.

Key Advantages
- Modular System Expansion: Allows flexible growth of the PLC system without requiring a second CPU.
- Compact Design: The 5-slot footprint is ideal for enclosures with limited physical space.
- Independent Power Supply: Uses its own power supply module on the local rack, reducing current load on the main CPU baseboard power supply.
- Easy Configuration: Simple DIP switch settings make assigning the rack ID straightforward during setup.
Important Usage & Safety Guidelines
- Power Off Before Servicing: Always disconnect all power sources to the baseboard and modules before inserting or removing any component to prevent equipment damage.
- Rack Addressing: Ensure the DIP switches on the back of the baseboard are correctly configured to assign a unique expansion rack number (1 through 7) within the PLC chain.
- Termination Resistor: If the IC693CHS398G is the final expansion rack in the chain, ensure proper bus termination is installed on the expansion port to prevent communication noise and signal dropouts.
- Cable Limits: Strictly observe the total cable distance limit (maximum 50 feet / 15 meters) across the entire expansion system.
Common Applications
- Industrial Automation: Expanding digital and analog I/O points in manufacturing assembly lines and processing facilities.
- Distributed Control Panels: Mounting additional I/O modules in separate enclosure cabinets near sensors and actuators.
- Retrofit & Upgrades: Adding specialized function modules or extra input/output capacity to existing GE Series 90-30 installations.
