製品紹介
The GE IC697CHS791 9-Slot Front Mount Rack is a modular chassis specifically engineered for the GE Fanuc Series 90-70 PLC system, providing a solid foundation for high-performance automation and process control environments. Designed with nine module slots, it accommodates CPUs, I/O modules, communication processors, and power supplies within a single, compact frame.
This rack supports front mounting installation, /fering convenient module access for maintenance and expansion. The IC697CHS791 integrates a high-speed backplane that complies with VMEbus (IEEE 1014) electrical standards, ensuring fast data exchange and consistent signal integrity between modules. Its rugged steel construction guarantees operational stability under demanding industrial conditions such as vibration, temperature fluctuations, and electrical interference.
The rack’s layout includes one slot dedicated to the power supply, while the remaining eight slots are available for CPU, I/O, or special-purpose modules. Designed for scalability, the IC697CHS791 can also be used in multi-rack configurations by connecting additional expansion racks via bus transmitters and receivers.
