GE IC694PWR330 Power Supply Module
Product Overview
The GE IC694PWR330 is a power supply module designed for GE’s RX3i PACSystems, a robust platform in industrial automation. This module serves a critical role in providing reliable electrical power to the entire RX3i system, including the CPU, I/O modules, and field devices connected to them. It converts incoming AC or DC power into the precise voltages required by the system components, ensuring stable and continuous operation in industrial environments.
As part of the IC694 Series, the GE IC694PWR330 integrates seamlessly with RX3i backplanes like the IC694CHS790, providing power to all modules installed in the rack. It supports both 100–240 V AC and 24 V DC inputs, offering flexibility for different industrial settings. The module outputs +5 V DC (for backplane communication) and +24 V DC (for I/O modules and field devices), with a total power capacity of 30 W for the +5 V rail and 100 W for the +24 V rail.
Built to withstand harsh industrial conditions, the GE IC694PWR330 operates in temperatures from 0°C to 60°C and humidity up to 95% (non-condensing). It features EMI/RFI filtering and overvoltage/overcurrent protection to safeguard against electrical interference and faults, ensuring reliable power delivery even in environments with large motors or high-voltage equipment. Though it is a legacy model, the GE IC694PWR330 remains vital for maintaining older RX3i systems, allowing businesses to extend the life of their automation infrastructure without costly full upgrades.

Installation and maintenance
Pre-installation preparations: Verify that the IC694PWR330 is compatible with your RX3i backplane (e.g., IC694CHS790). Ensure there is an empty power supply slot in the rack. Power off the system and disconnect all power sources. Align the module with the slot and push firmly until it clicks into place. Connect the input power (AC or DC) to the appropriate terminals on the module, following the wiring diagram in the manual. Ensure all connections are tight and secure.
Maintenance suggestions: Inspect the IC694PWR330 monthly for loose connections or signs of overheating (e.g., discoloration or a burning smell). Tighten terminal screws to ensure good contact. Check the input voltage using a multimeter to ensure it matches the rated input. Clean the module’s vents and surface with a dry cloth to prevent dust buildup, which can cause overheating. If the module fails or shows signs of damage, replace it immediately with a spare IC694PWR330 stored in a dry, cool area (10–30°C).
