IC697CHS771

The GE Fanuc Emerson part number IC697CHS771 represents a PLC rack chassis within the Series 90-70 product line. This unit is structured as a dual-redundant rack that provides enhanced reliability and operational continuity for PLC applications. It is designed to hold two PLC systems, facilitating a total of 12 slots, of which 2 are specifically allocated for power supplies.

The chassis consists of two distinct, isolated sections for effective separation of components, with each section able to house 6 slots. Compatibility with IC697 I/O modules ensures that users can connect a variety of input and output devices, while the additional VME support for IC687 VME modules broadens its utility across different system architectures. This flexibility enables the integration of diverse functionalities within a single rack structure, optimizing overall system performance.

The rack is compatible with both AC and DC input power types, making it versatile for different installation requirements. It is specifically designed for mounting in a standard 19-inch rack, allowing for straightforward installation in existing infrastructure. The IC697CHS771 supports external power connections via an adapter, enhancing operational adaptability. Furthermore, it provides the option for multi-rack power solutions, enabling a single power supply to serve two separate racks, thereby simplifying energy management in complex setups.
