GE IC693ACC302 Product Specification
Product Overview
The GE IC693ACC302 is a high-reliability auxiliary battery module engineered for GE’s Series 90-30, Series 90-70, and PACSystems PLC platforms. Designed to extend memory retention during power outages, this module provides critical backup for volatile RAM in industrial control systems, ensuring uninterrupted operation of mission-critical processes. With a 15.0 amp-hour capacity and 3 VDC output, the GE IC693ACC302 delivers up to 75 months of backup time for most CPUs, significantly outperforming standard memory backup batteries1312.
Constructed with a flame-retardant ABS plastic casing, the GE IC693ACC302 withstands harsh industrial environments while maintaining a compact form factor (145.1 × 65.0 × 39.9 mm) and lightweight design (0.4 kg) for easy integration into control panels15. Its 24 AWG twisted lead with a female 2-pin connector ensures secure connectivity to compatible CPUs and power supplies, while a 1-amp fuse safeguards against short circuits and voltage overloads412. The module’s date code (three digits indicating year and fiscal week) simplifies lifecycle management, with a recommended replacement every 2 years or upon low-battery detection312.
Compatible with IC693 and IC697 platforms, the GE IC693ACC302 supports a wide operating temperature range (0°C to +60°C) and 5–95% non-condensing humidity, making it suitable for applications in power generation, oil refineries, and manufacturing facilities312. Its CE, UL 508, and CSA certifications ensure compliance with international safety standards, while the 7-year shelf life guarantees long-term usability when stored properly312.

Main Features and Advantages
Extended Memory Backup:
The GE IC693ACC302 provides 75 months of RAM retention for most CPUs, ensuring program logic and configuration data remain intact during prolonged power outages. This is critical in applications like chemical processing, where abrupt system resets could lead to production delays or safety risks312.
Rugged Construction:
The flame-retardant ABS casing and conformal coating protect against dust, moisture, and chemical exposure, while the wide temperature range (-25°C to +70°C) ensures reliability in extreme climates, such as offshore oil platforms or arctic mining operations112.
Smart Diagnostics:
A low-battery detection circuit alerts operators before the battery is depleted, allowing proactive replacement and minimizing downtime. This feature is essential in remote locations where maintenance access is limited13.
Easy Integration:
The plug-and-play design with a 2-pin connector enables quick installation on IC693 and IC697 racks, reducing setup time by up to 30% compared to legacy battery solutions. Its panel-mountable design with four #8-32 screws ensures secure mounting in control enclosures1213.
Safety Compliance:
The 1-amp fuse and UL/CE certification mitigate risks of electrical faults, while the non-hazardous disposal guidelines (per MSDS) ensure environmental compliance at end-of-life412.
Application Areas
Power Generation:
- Provides backup for turbine control systems in gas-fired power plants, ensuring critical PID parameters and alarm logs persist during grid outages312.
- Maintains PLC memory in substations, preventing loss of protective relay settings during maintenance shutdowns
Oil and Gas:
- Supports subsea wellhead control modules, preserving configuration data for underwater valves and sensors during offshore platform power interruptions312.
- Ensures uninterrupted operation of pipeline SCADA systems, maintaining real-time flow and pressure data integrity.
Manufacturing:
- Safeguards robotic cell programs in automotive assembly lines, avoiding costly reconfiguration after power surges312.
Protects batch recipes in food processing plants, preventing product spoilage due to memory loss during equipment downtime.

Installation and Maintenance
Pre-installation preparations: Before installing GE IC693ACC302, disconnect power to the PLC and ensure the mounting base is properly grounded to prevent electrostatic discharge. Use an ESD wrist strap during handling. Align the module’s 2-pin connector with the CPU’s battery port, ensuring a secure fit. Mount the module vertically using four #8-32 flat-head machine screws, leaving 25 mm of clearance for ventilation312.
Maintenance suggestions: Perform quarterly visual inspections of the LED status indicator to confirm normal operation (green = active). Clean dust from the casing with compressed air monthly. Annually, test the battery’s remaining capacity using a multimeter (voltage should remain ≥2.8 VDC). Replace the module every 2 years or immediately if a low-battery fault is logged. Dispose of expired batteries following MSDS guidelines to comply with environmental regulations312.
