GE Fanuc IC697PWR748 Series 90-70 Rack Mount Power Supply

Product Overview

The GE Fanuc IC697PWR748 is a high-performance, rack-mounted power supply module engineered for the Series 90-70 PLC range. This module is specifically designed to convert a 48 VDC nominal input into stable output power for the system backplane, providing a total output capacity of 90 Watts across three combined outputs.

This industrial-grade power unit is optimized for reliability in mission-critical environments. It features a compact design with a weight of 0.8kg, allowing for efficient heat dissipation and easy installation within the standard Series 90-70 rack system. Full support for the VME bus ensures seamless integration with advanced control architectures.

Technical Configuration

Key Performance Features

• Electronic Overcurrent Protection: Features an intelligent electronic limit that automatically drops voltage upon detecting an overload, preventing hardware damage.
• VME Bus Compatibility: Fully supports VME bus signals, enabling advanced system monitoring and high-speed communication within the rack.
• Stable Ride-Through: Provides a minimum ride-through time of 10 milliseconds, ensuring continuous operation during momentary input power fluctuations.
• High-Energy Inrush Handling: Capable of managing inrush energy up to 28 Joules at 60 VDC, protecting the module and upstream components during startup.

Installation & Operational Stability

The IC697PWR748 requires a minimum load of 1.0 A on the +5 VDC output to maintain proper regulation across all output channels. It is rated for peak performance in ambient temperatures up to 50°C. For systems requiring memory backup, the module includes circuitry for backup batteries, though it is recommended to replace these annually due to their 1-year shelf life at 20°C.

Technical FAQs

Q1: What happens if the input voltage drops below 35 VDC?
A1: The module is rated for 35 to 60 VDC. Operating below 35 VDC may result in inadequate regulation and eventual shutdown of the outputs to protect the PLC modules.

Q2: Does this module require a cooling fan?
A2: While the IC697PWR748 is designed for convection cooling up to 50°C, ensuring adequate spacing within the rack is essential for optimal thermal management.

Q3: Is the output power shared?
A3: Yes, the 90 Watts total power is the combined maximum for the +5V, +12V, and -12V outputs. Care should be taken not to exceed the cumulative watt rating.
