Description

Product Overview: GE IC694TBB032
The GE IC694TBB032 is a box-style high-density terminal block engineered for seamless integration with GE’s PACSystems RX3i platform, designed to streamline field wiring connections for industrial automation systems. This module serves as a critical interface between I/O modules and field devices, providing secure and organized termination for analog and digital signals. As part of GE’s PACSystems RX3i series, the GE IC694TBB032 combines robust durability with precise connectivity, making it ideal for applications requiring reliable signal transmission in harsh industrial environments .

 

Featuring 36 screw terminals, the GE IC694TBB032 supports wire gauges ranging from #14 to #26 AWG (solid or stranded), accommodating diverse wiring needs across industries. Its compact design (80 mm x 40 mm x 30 mm) and lightweight construction (90 g) facilitate easy installation in space-constrained control panels, while the screw-down termination ensures stable connections with a torque rating of 7 lb-in. The terminal block includes a clear protective cover to shield against dust and accidental contact, enhancing safety and longevity in demanding settings .

 

The GE IC694TBB032 is engineered to withstand extreme conditions, with an operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C and resistance to vibration and electrical noise. It is commonly used with high-density RX3i I/O modules, such as analog input/output modules (e.g., GE IC694MDL758) and digital modules (e.g., GE IC694MDL646), enabling efficient signal routing in manufacturing, energy, and water treatment systems. By simplifying wiring complexity, the GE IC694TBB032 reduces installation time and minimizes the risk of errors, contributing to improved system efficiency and reduced downtime .
