Its rugged design and wide input voltage range (85–264 VAC or 100–300 VDC) make it suitable for demanding environments, from manufacturing plants to energy facilities.
As part of the RX3i series, the IC694PWR321 integrates seamlessly with expansion backplanes (e.g., IC694CHS398) and CPU modules, ensuring stable power distribution across distributed control systems. Its LED indicators (PWR, OK, RUN) provide real-time status monitoring, while the replaceable 2A fuse protects against overloads and short circuits. The module’s compact form factor (10.4 x 5.1 x 5.6 inches) optimizes space in control cabinets, while its lightweight construction (1.15 lbs) simplifies installation in confined spaces.
The IC694PWR321 plays a critical role in maintaining system reliability by delivering consistent power to I/O modules like the IC694MDL753 and communication modules like the IC694BEM321. Its 1500 VAC isolation between input and backplane ensures immunity to electrical noise and voltage spikes, a key advantage in high-interference environments such as oil refineries or automotive assembly lines. The module’s ride-through capability (20 ms minimum) ensures uninterrupted operation during brief power fluctuations, reducing downtime risks.

Main Features and Advantages: GE IC694PWR321
The GE IC694PWR321 stands out for its universal input flexibility, supporting both AC and DC power sources without requiring hardware adjustments. This adaptability reduces inventory costs by eliminating the need for separate AC/DC modules, making it ideal for global installations with varying power standards.

This adaptability reduces inventory costs by eliminating the need for separate AC/DC modules, making it ideal for global installations with varying power standards.
A key advantage is its modular power distribution. The three isolated outputs allow technicians to power different subsystems independently, minimizing cross-interference. For example, the 5 VDC output powers logic circuits, while the 24 VDC isolated output drives field devices like solenoids, ensuring signal integrity in high-noise environments.
The module’s rugged construction includes copper conductors rated for 75°C and an IP20-rated enclosure, ensuring durability in harsh conditions. Its LED indicators simplify troubleshooting by providing instant feedback on power status and fault conditions. In cases of RF interference (e.g., from portable radios), the IC694PWR321 can be installed in a metal enclosure to meet IEC standards for electromagnetic immunity.
Cost-effectiveness is another highlight. The IC694PWR321’s compact design reduces cabinet space, while its low power consumption (90 VA AC input) lowers operational costs. For legacy systems, its compatibility with discontinued RX3i modules ensures seamless retrofitting without full system overhauls.
Installation and Maintenance: GE IC694PWR321
Pre-installation Preparations:
Before installing the IC694PWR321, power off the RX3i system and verify compatibility with the backplane (e.g., IC694CHS398). Ensure the input voltage matches the module’s specifications (120/240 VAC or 125 VDC) and that the backplane provides sufficient 5 VDC power. Use the IC694TBS32 terminal block for field wiring, tightening connections to 8–10 lb-in torque. Configure the dip switch on the backplane to enable remote base operation if required.

Maintenance Suggestions:
Regular maintenance includes quarterly inspections to check for loose terminals, corrosion, or dust accumulation. Clean vents with compressed air to prevent overheating. If the PWR LED is off, inspect the input power source and replace the 2A fuse (part number 44A724627-109) if blown. For module replacement, power off the system and use anti-static measures to avoid ESD damage. Faulty modules should be returned to our global repair center for certified refurbishment.
