GE IC695CPE330 Product Specification
Product Overview
The GE IC695CPE330 is a high-performance CPU module engineered for GE’s RX3i PLC platform, serving as the processing core for industrial automation systems in manufacturing, power generation, oil and gas, and water/wastewater applications. Designed to execute complex control logic with speed and reliability, this module integrates seamlessly with RX3i I/O modules, communication interfaces, and human-machine interfaces (HMIs) to enable real-time monitoring and control of critical processes.
As the central processing unit of the RX3i system, the GE IC695CPE330 features a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor and 512 MB RAM/2 GB flash memory, supporting fast execution of ladder logic, structured text, and function block diagrams—up to 10,000 instructions per millisecond. Its robust architecture includes dual Ethernet ports (10/100/1000 Mbps) for industrial protocols like Modbus TCP/IP, Ethernet/IP, and PROFINET, enabling seamless communication with SCADA systems, HMIs, and other PLCs.
The GE IC695CPE330’s rugged design—including a conformal coating and IP20-rated enclosure—supports operation in temperatures ranging from -25°C to +70°C, with resistance to vibration (10–2000 Hz, 10 G rms) and humidity (5–95% non-condensing). It offers hot standby redundancy when paired with a second GE IC695CPE330, ensuring zero downtime during hardware failures—a critical feature in mission-critical systems like turbine control or chemical batch processing. Front-panel LEDs provide real-time status for power, run mode, and communication, simplifying troubleshooting, while compatibility with GE’s Proficy Machine Edition software allows easy programming and configuration.

Redundant architecture:
Support for hot standby redundancy—when paired with a second GE IC695CPE330 and IC695RNR001 module—ensures seamless failover (<50 ms) during CPU failures. This redundancy eliminates single points of failure, a must for industries like nuclear power or chemical processing, where unplanned downtime could lead to environmental hazards or production losses.

Versatile communication:
Dual Gigabit Ethernet ports support multiple industrial protocols (Modbus TCP/IP, Ethernet/IP, PROFINET), enabling integration with SCADA systems, HMIs (like GE IC695HMI300), and third-party devices. For example, the module can communicate with Siemens PLCs via PROFINET and Allen-Bradley systems via Ethernet/IP, simplifying integration in hybrid automation environments.

Rugged environmental resilience:
A conformal coating protects against dust, moisture, and chemical vapors, while the wide operating temperature range (-25°C to +70°C) and vibration resistance ensure reliability in harsh settings—from arctic oil rigs to desert solar farms. ATEX/IECEx Zone 2 certification extends its use to hazardous locations like refineries, where explosive atmospheres are a risk.

Advanced diagnostics:
Built-in self-tests monitor CPU health, memory integrity, and communication links, with faults logged to flash memory for post-mortem analysis. Front-panel LEDs (Power, Run, Fault, Redundancy Status) provide instant visual feedback, while remote diagnostics via Proficy Machine Edition allow engineers to troubleshoot issues without onsite visits—reducing maintenance costs in remote locations like offshore platforms.

Seamless RX3i integration:
The GE IC695CPE330 interfaces directly with RX3i I/O modules (e.g., IC695ALG626 analog input, IC695MDL645 discrete output) via the backplane, enabling plug-and-play expansion. Its compatibility with the RX3i rack system (e.g., IC695CHS010) simplifies system design, while support for online programming allows logic modifications without stopping operations—ideal for optimizing batch recipes in food processing or adjusting energy usage in smart grids.

Installation and Maintenance
Pre-installation preparations: Before installing GE IC695CPE330, verify the IC695CHS010 rack is properly grounded to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD). Use an ESD wrist strap during handling. Mount the CPU in the rack’s designated slot (typically slot 0 for primary CPU), ensuring secure seating in the backplane. Connect 24 VDC power via IC695PSD140, and Ethernet cables to network switches or HMIs. For redundant setups, install the second GE IC695CPE330 in slot 1 and connect the IC695RNR001 module to enable failover.
Maintenance suggestions: Perform monthly visual inspections of GE IC695CPE330 front-panel LEDs to confirm normal operation (green Run, no Fault). Clean dust from ventilation slots with compressed air quarterly to maintain cooling. Annually, update firmware via Proficy Machine Edition to access security patches and protocol enhancements. Test redundancy by powering down the primary CPU and verifying seamless switchover to the standby unit. Backup logic programs to external storage quarterly to prevent data loss, and replace the module every 10 years or if processing latency exceeds 50 ms, as aging components may impact performance.
