Product Overview: GE IC695ALG508-EB
The GE IC695ALG508-EB is a 16-channel analog input module designed for GE’s RX3i PACSystems, a leading platform in industrial automation. This module acts as a critical bridge between analog sensors and digital control systems, converting continuous physical signals—like temperature, pressure, and flow—into digital data that the CPU can process. It is built to handle high-precision measurements, making it ideal for systems that require accurate real-time monitoring of industrial processes.
As part of the RX3i series, the GE IC695ALG508-EB integrates seamlessly with other RX3i components, ensuring consistent performance across the automation network. Its 16 channels are divided into 8 differential pairs, allowing flexible configuration for different sensor types and simplifying wiring in complex setups. This design reduces the number of modules needed, cutting down on both hardware costs and cabinet space.
In automation systems, the GE IC695ALG508-EB plays a key role in data acquisition. It takes signals from sensors—such as thermocouples, RTDs, and pressure transducers—and converts them into usable data for the CPU. This data helps controllers make informed decisions, adjust processes, and trigger alarms when values fall outside set ranges. Its rugged build allows it to operate reliably in harsh industrial environments, where dust, vibration, and electrical noise are common, ensuring uninterrupted data collection and process control.

Main features and advantages
The GE IC695ALG508-EB stands out for its high channel density, with 16 channels that allow it to monitor a large number of analog signals without the need for multiple modules. This reduces system complexity and saves space in control cabinets, making it a cost-effective choice for both small and large industrial setups. The channels are configured as 8 differential pairs, which helps minimize noise interference and ensures accurate measurements—even in environments with high electromagnetic interference, such as near large motors or transformers.
Another key advantage is its wide range of compatible input types. The module can handle voltage, current, thermocouples, and RTDs, eliminating the need for separate modules for different sensor types. This flexibility simplifies system design and reduces inventory costs, as one module can replace several specialized ones. For example, in a chemical plant, it can monitor both pressure (via 4–20 mA transducers) and temperature (via K-type thermocouples) using the same module.
The GE IC695ALG508-EB also offers high measurement accuracy, with ±0.1% of full scale typical. This precision is critical for processes that require tight control, such as pharmaceutical manufacturing or food processing, where even small deviations can affect product quality. Its rugged construction, including resistance to vibrations and extreme temperatures (0°C to 60°C), ensures reliable operation in harsh industrial conditions, reducing downtime and maintenance needs.
Additionally, the module’s isolation features protect both the module and connected equipment from voltage spikes and electrical noise. This isolation—250 VAC continuous between field and logic—enhances system safety and extends the lifespan of both the GE IC695ALG508-EB and the sensors it connects to. The 37-pin D-subminiature connector simplifies wiring, with clear labeling that reduces installation errors and speeds up setup.

Installation and maintenance
Pre-installation preparations: Before installing the GE IC695ALG508-EB, ensure the RX3i system is powered off and grounded. Check that the CPU is compatible with RX3i modules (version 3.50 or higher) and that the backplane (such as IC695CHS016) can provide the required 5 VDC power. Inspect the module for physical damage, such as bent pins or cracks, and confirm that the input signals match the module’s specifications (e.g., voltage range, sensor type). Select the appropriate wiring (shielded twisted-pair recommended) and prepare the 37-pin D-subminiature connector for secure connections to sensors.
Maintenance suggestions: Regularly inspect the GE IC695ALG508-EB to ensure the 37-pin connector is tight and free from corrosion. Clean dust and debris from the module’s vents with compressed air every three months to prevent overheating. Calibrate the module annually using a standard signal generator to maintain measurement accuracy—this is especially important for critical processes where precision is key. Monitor the module’s status via the CPU; if errors occur (such as signal out-of-range), check wiring connections and sensor functionality before replacing the module. Use anti-static equipment when handling the GE IC695ALG508-EB to prevent damage from static electricity, and power off the system before removing or reinstalling the module.
Application fields
The GE IC695ALG508-EB is widely used in manufacturing, where it monitors critical process variables to ensure product quality and efficiency. In automotive plants, for example, it measures temperature in welding stations (using thermocouples) and pressure in hydraulic systems (using 4–20 mA transducers), sending this data to the CPU to adjust operations in real time. Its 16 channels allow it to track multiple points on an assembly line, reducing the need for extra modules and simplifying system design.
In energy production, the GE IC695ALG508-EB plays a key role in power plants and renewable energy facilities. It monitors steam pressure in boilers, oil flow in pipelines, and temperature in turbine generators—all via compatible sensors. This data helps operators optimize energy output, detect potential issues early, and ensure compliance with safety standards. Its rugged design allows it to operate reliably in the high-vibration, high-temperature environments common in these facilities.
Water and wastewater treatment facilities also rely on the GE IC695ALG508-EB to monitor water quality and treatment processes. It measures pH levels (via voltage sensors), turbidity (via current transducers), and chemical dosing rates, ensuring that treated water meets regulatory standards. Its ability to handle multiple sensor types simplifies the design of these systems, reducing hardware costs and making maintenance easier.
In food and beverage processing, the module monitors temperature in ovens, pressure in filling machines, and viscosity in mixing tanks. Its high accuracy ensures that processes stay within tight tolerances, preventing product waste and ensuring consistency.
