Description
The IC697PWR710 is a high-performance power supply module designed for the General Electric Series 90-70 programmable logic controller (PLC) platform. This rack-mountable unit provides regulated +5 VDC power and essential logic-level sequencing signals to the system backplane. Engineered for versatility, it supports a wide range of input voltages, including 120/240 VAC or 125 VDC, making it suitable for diverse industrial environments. The module features active power factor correction and integrated protection against overcurrent and overvoltage conditions to ensure system stability.
Features
- Operates on 120/240 VAC (90-264 VAC range) or 125 VDC (100-150 VDC range).
- Delivers up to 56 watts of output power with a nominal 5.1 VDC output.
- Supports up to 11 amps of current on the 5V bus.
- Active power factor correction (PF > 0.95) for efficient energy usage.
- Capable of powering two racks simultaneously, provided the total load is within the 56W rating.
- Integrated electronic short-circuit and overcurrent protection.
- Slide-in rack mount design for installation in the leftmost slot of a Series 90-70 rack.
Applications
- Process manufacturing (chemical, pharmaceutical, and batch processing).
- Turbine control and monitoring systems.
- Automated material handling and conveyor systems.
- High-precision metalworking and industrial assembly equipment.
- Electrical distribution and utility monitoring.

Installation Guidelines
- The module must be installed in the leftmost slot of the Series 90-70 rack, which is dedicated to the power supply.
- Ensure the system power is disconnected before inserting or removing the module from the backplane.
- Use copper AWG #16 (1.3mm2) wire rated for 75 degC for power input connections (L1 and N).
- The ground terminal must be connected to the rack GND terminal and earth using copper AWG #12 (3.3mm2) wire rated for 75 degC to ensure proper grounding.
- Verify that all wiring is secure and that the same wire type/size is used for terminals.
- Maintain adequate ventilation around the rack to prevent overheating.
