Description

Product Overview: GE IC695ALG708

 

The GE IC695ALG708 is an 8-channel analog output module designed for GE’s RX3i PACSystems, a versatile platform for industrial automation. This module serves as a critical link between digital control systems and analog field devices, converting digital commands from the CPU into precise analog signals (voltage or current) to regulate valves, motors, and other process equipment. Its high-precision output capabilities make it ideal for applications requiring tight control over industrial processes, such as chemical dosing, temperature regulation, and flow management.

 

As part of the RX3i series, the GE IC695ALG708 integrates seamlessly with other RX3i components, ensuring consistent performance across the automation network. Each of its 8 channels can be independently configured for voltage (0–10 VDC, ±10 VDC) or current (4–20 mA, 0–20 mA) outputs, providing flexibility to interface with a wide range of industrial devices. This modular design reduces the need for multiple specialized modules, optimizing hardware costs and cabinet space.

 

In automation systems, the GE IC695ALG708 plays a pivotal role in process control. It translates digital signals from the CPU into analog actions, such as adjusting the opening of a control valve or modulating the speed of a variable frequency drive (VFD). Its robust construction allows reliable operation in harsh environments, withstanding dust, vibration, and electromagnetic interference common in industrial settings. This ensures uninterrupted control and stable process performance, even in high-stress applications.

Main Features and Advantages

 

The GE IC695ALG708 excels in precision and versatility. Its 16-bit resolution and ±0.1% accuracy ensure fine-grained control over analog outputs, making it suitable for applications where even minor deviations could affect product quality or process efficiency. For example, in pharmaceutical manufacturing, it can precisely regulate the flow of active ingredients into mixing tanks, ensuring batch consistency.

 

Flexibility is another hallmark. Each channel can independently switch between voltage and current outputs, eliminating the need for separate modules. This adaptability simplifies system design and reduces inventory costs, as one module can interface with diverse devices like pressure transducers, temperature controllers, and motor drives.

 

Ruggedness is a key strength. The module’s 2550 VDC isolation protects against voltage spikes and electromagnetic interference, while its operating temperature range (0°C to 60°C) and resistance to vibration ensure reliable performance in harsh industrial environments. This durability minimizes downtime and maintenance requirements, critical for continuous-process industries like oil refining or power generation.

 

Integration with RX3i systems is seamless. The 37-pin D-sub connector streamlines wiring, and compatibility with standard backplanes and CPUs allows easy retrofitting into existing setups. This reduces installation complexity and supports scalability, enabling gradual system expansions as operational needs grow.

Installation and Maintenance

 

Pre-installation preparations:
Before installing the GE IC695ALG708, power off and ground the RX3i system. Verify CPU compatibility (version 3.50 or higher) and ensure the backplane (e.g., IC695CHS016) provides sufficient 5 VDC power. Inspect the module for physical damage and confirm field devices match the output specifications (e.g., 4–20 mA for a control valve). Use shielded twisted-pair wiring (e.g., IC695CBL006) to connect the module to devices, grounding the shield at both ends to mitigate noise.

 

Maintenance suggestions:
Regularly check the 37-pin connector for tightness and corrosion, as loose connections can degrade signal quality. Clean dust from the module’s vents every three months using compressed air to prevent overheating. Calibrate the module annually with a precision signal calibrator to maintain accuracy, especially in critical processes. Monitor diagnostics via the CPU; if output errors occur, inspect wiring and field devices before replacing the module. Use anti-static equipment during handling to avoid electrostatic discharge damage, and power off the system before module removal or reinstallation.
