IC698PSA100E | GE Electric Central PACSystems™RX3i PLC module
Product Function
The IC698PSA100E is a primary AC/DC power supply module designed for PACSystems™ RX3i PLC racks. It converts 85-264V AC/88-375V DC input voltage to regulated +5V DC output for backplane power distribution. Featuring hot-swappable redundancy support and integrated diagnostics, it ensures continuous operation of critical control systems during power fluctuations or module failure.

Series Information
Part of the PACSystems™ RX3i platform – Emerson’s flagship modular automation controller series. Compatible with all RX3i CPU, I/O, and communication modules. The “-E” suffix denotes enhanced input voltage range for European/global markets.
Key Features
- Wide Input Range: Supports unstable mains voltage (85-264V AC) and DC sources.
- Redundancy Ready: OR-ing diodes enable seamless N+1 backup with ≤1ms switchover.
- Diagnostic LEDs: Real-time status monitoring (AC input, DC output, faults).
- Hot-Swappable: Replace modules without shutting down the PLC rack.
- High Efficiency: >85% conversion efficiency minimizes heat generation.
- Universal Mounting: Horizontal/vertical installation in RX3i racks.
Role & Purpose
- Backplane Power Source: Delivers stable +5V DC to CPU, I/O, and communication modules.
- System Integrity: Redundant configuration prevents downtime in critical processes.
- Electrical Protection: Safeguards PLC components from voltage surges and shorts.
- Energy Management: Optimizes power usage in multi-module racks.
