GE Fanuc Series 90-30 Power Transducer IC693PTM101 120V 7.5A

Product Overview

The GE Fanuc IC693PTM101 is a high-precision Power Transducer Module specifically engineered for the Series 90-30 PLC system. This advanced module allows your PLC to directly monitor and process AC power parameters from electrical distribution systems, eliminating the need for bulky external transducers. With a specialized unit weight of approximately 0.42 kg, this module offers a compact and lightweight solution for comprehensive power monitoring within a single PLC rack.

High-Precision Measurement & Performance

14-Bit Data Resolution

Equipped with 14-bit high-precision resolution, the IC693PTM101 provides granular data for critical electrical oversight. It processes power data at high speeds—16.67 ms for 60Hz or 20 ms for 50Hz—ensuring real-time response to voltage spikes or load changes. Its robust design is matched by its physical efficiency, with a 0.42 kg form factor that fits seamlessly into any standard Series 90-30 baseplate.

Comprehensive Parameter Tracking

This multi-function module tracks a wide spectrum of electrical data, including Voltage, Current, kW, kVAR, kVA, and accumulated energy metrics (kWH, kVARH). It also monitors Power Factor, Frequency, and Phase Angle. Such detailed reporting is essential for energy management, load shedding, and maintaining grid stability in industrial facilities.

Technical Specifications

System Integration & Compatibility

The IC693PTM101 is fully compatible with all Series 90-30 CPU modules and can be installed in CPU, expansion, or remote baseplates. It supports various configurations, including Single-Phase, 3-Phase, and Synchro Monitor modes. To ensure signal integrity and ease of installation, GE Fanuc recommends the use of the IC693CBL340 interface cable. Its lightweight 0.42 kg construction ensures minimal mechanical stress on the backplane connector during long-term operation.

Key Features for Energy Management

With a maximum power dissipation of 4 Watts, this module is highly efficient. It is a vital tool for industries such as water treatment, HVAC management, and heavy manufacturing where precise power reporting is required for utility compliance. The high 1500V isolation protects the internal PLC circuitry from hazardous field-side transients, ensuring system longevity and reliability.

Technical FAQs

Q1: What is the primary advantage of the Synchro Monitor mode?
A1: It allows the module to compare two AC sources for synchronization, which is critical for generator paralleling and automatic transfer switches.

Q2: Can I monitor currents higher than 7.5 Amps?
A2: Yes, by using external Current Transformers (CTs), you can scale significantly higher currents down to the module's 0-7.5A input range.

Q3: Does the 0.42 kg weight include the external interface cable?
A3: No, the 0.42 kg refers to the net weight of the IC693PTM101 module itself. The cable weight is calculated separately based on its specific length.
