Description
The GE IC697PWR724 is a power supply module manufactured by GE Automation, a division of General Electric, for their GE Fanuc (now GE Automation) IC697 programmable automation controller (PAC) system.
Product Description:
The IC697PWR724 is a critical component within the GE Fanuc IC697 PAC system. It provides regulated DC power to the PAC chassis and its I/O modules, ensuring stable operation of the entire control system.
Product Parameters (Limited information available):
- Input Voltage: Specific input voltage rating is not available from the code itself. However, GE Fanuc IC697 power supplies typically accept a range of AC voltages, such as 100-240VAC or 200-480VAC. Refer to the manufacturer’s specifications for confirmation.
- Output Voltage: Exact output voltage is also unavailable from the code. Common output voltages for PAC power supplies might be 24VDC or 48VDC. Consult the manufacturer’s datasheet for specific details.
- Output Current: The maximum current rating of the power supply is not available from the code. Refer to the manufacturer’s datasheet for this information.
Product Specifications (refer to manufacturer’s datasheet for complete details):
- Input Voltage Range: As mentioned earlier, the specific AC voltage range the power supply can accept depends on the model variant.
- Output Voltage: The exact DC voltage level provided by the power supply (e.g., 24VDC or 48VDC).
- Output Current Rating: The maximum current the power supply can deliver to the PAC chassis and I/O modules.
- Power Rating: The overall power rating of the power supply unit (in Watts).
- Dimensions: Physical size and weight of the power supply module.
- Operating Temperature Range: The acceptable ambient temperature range for reliable operation of the power supply.
Finding More Information:
Unfortunately, GE Automation no longer manufactures the IC697 PAC system and its associated modules. However, you might still be able to find information about the IC697PWR724 power supply through the following methods:
- GE Automation Website: While the product might not be actively listed, GE Automation’s website might have archived resources or datasheets for discontinued products. Search their website for “IC697 power supply” or browse their discontinued product listings (if available).
- Industrial Automation Parts Suppliers: Some industrial automation parts suppliers sell replacement parts for discontinued control systems. These websites may have datasheets or specifications for the IC697PWR724 if they carry it as a replacement part.
- Online Resources: Tech forums, automation communities, or online resources might have discussions or references to the IC697PWR724, potentially providing some details or alternative sources for information.
Important Considerations:
- Discontinued Product: The GE IC697 PAC system is a discontinued product line. While replacement parts might be available, they may become increasingly difficult to find over time.
- Technical Expertise: Selecting and replacing components in a control system like the IC697 PAC system might require technical expertise in industrial automation and electrical engineering.
- Safety Precautions: Working with electrical components within a control system requires following safety precautions to avoid electrical hazards. If unsure, consult a qualified electrician for assistance.
