Product Overview

The 100% Brand New GE IC697PWR711M supplies regulated DC power to the Series 90-70 PLC system. It converts 120/240 VAC or 125 VDC input power into +5 VDC, +12 VDC, and -12 VDC output rails for the CPU, I/O modules, and backplane. This module occupies the leftmost slot (Slot 0) of the IC697 rack and features a slide-in design for rapid installation. It supports single-rack applications and optionally powers a second expansion rack via an interconnect cable, provided the total load stays within the 100-watt rating.

Engineering Advantages

•  

  Dual-Rack Power Capability: The module powers a primary rack and a secondary expansion rack simultaneously using a prewired interconnect cable. Engineers reduce hardware costs by avoiding a separate power supply for small satellite I/O racks, as long as the combined 5V current draw does not exceed 20 Amps.

   

•  

  Global Input Flexibility: The wide input range accepts 90-264 VAC or 100-150 VDC. Technicians deploy the same 100% Brand New spare globally without rewiring for regional power standards (120V/240V AC) or DC battery backups (125V DC).

   

•  

  Line Disturbance Ride-Through: The supply maintains output regulation for at least 21 milliseconds (minimum one AC line cycle) after input power loss. This ride-through capability prevents nuisance shutdowns during brief utility switching transients or contactor bounce, allowing the CPU to execute a controlled shutdown sequence.

   

•  

  Active Power Factor Correction: The unit corrects the input power factor to greater than 0.93. This reduces harmonic distortion on the facility's AC line, minimizes wasted reactive power, and ensures compliance with industrial power quality standards, particularly in panels with multiple drives or switching power supplies.

   

FAQs

•  

  In which slot do I install the IC697PWR711M?

  You must install the power supply in the leftmost slot of the rack, designated as Slot 0. The module physically keys into the backplane power bus connector. Installation in any other slot will not power the rack and may cause physical damage.

   

•  

  Can this power supply run a CPU rack and an expansion rack at the same time?

  Yes. If the total 5V current draw of both racks is less than 20 Amps (100W total), you connect a standard IC697CBLxxx cable from the "RACK 2" connector on the power supply faceplate to the power connector on the second rack's backplane.

   

•  

  What does the "-M" suffix indicate?

  The "-M" denotes a specific manufacturing revision of the IC697PWR711. Electrically and mechanically, the IC697PWR711M functions as a direct replacement for all earlier revisions (A through L). The 100% Brand New module drops into existing systems without requiring software changes or reconfiguration.

   

•  

  How do I set the overvoltage protection?

  The module features a jumper (often labeled W1 or OVP) on the circuit board visible through the top vent. Technicians set this jumper to enable or disable the +5V overvoltage protection latch (trip point approx 5.7-6.7V). Consult the specific hardware manual for the jumper's default state and location on the "-M" revision.
