The GE IC695ALG608 is a flexible analog input module designed for the PACSystem RX3i controller series.

Originally developed by GE Intelligent Platforms, it is now supported and supplied by Emerson Automation.

This module can be configured as 8 single-ended channels or 4 differential channels based on system needs.

It integrates a high-resolution 24-bit ADC for accurate conversion of voltage and current signals.

All settings are fully software-configurable, with no external jumpers required for operation.

The IC695ALG608 supports a wide range of industrial voltage and current input signals.

Voltage inputs include ±50 mV, ±150 mV, ±10V, 0–10V, ±5V, 0–5V, and 1–5V.

Current inputs cover 0–20 mA, 4–20 mA, and ±20 mA for standard transmitter compatibility.

Input impedance for voltage channels exceeds 100 kΩ to minimize signal loading.

Current inputs use a 249 Ω ±1% shunt resistor for accurate measurement.

This module uses a high-precision 24-bit analog-to-digital converter for superior measurement accuracy.

Output data can be configured as IEEE 32-bit floating-point or 16-bit integer in a 32-bit field.

Auto-calibration runs automatically at power-up to maintain long-term measurement stability.

Open-circuit detection responds within 1 second for quick fault identification.

High resolution ensures precise readings even for small signal changes.

The IC695ALG608 offers six software-selectable digital filter frequencies.

Options include 8 Hz, 12 Hz, 16 Hz, 40 Hz, 200 Hz, and 500 Hz for noise reduction.

Users can adjust filtering to balance response speed and signal stability.

Filters reduce unwanted fluctuations and improve reliability in noisy environments.

Each channel can be configured independently for optimal performance.

The module operates from the RX3i backplane with defined power requirements.

It draws up to 600 mA at 3.3V and 330 mA at 5.0V under full load.

Maximum power dissipation is 4.83 watts for safe continuous operation.

It withstands continuous overvoltage up to ±60 VDC and overcurrent up to ±28 mA.

Stable power characteristics ensure consistent performance in industrial environments.

The IC695ALG608 includes comprehensive on-board error monitoring and fault reporting.

It supports positive and negative rate-of-change alarms for process protection.

Terminal block detection alerts users to loose or missing connections.

Module faults such as RAM and flash errors are reported to the CPU.

These diagnostic tools reduce downtime and simplify system troubleshooting.

The module operates reliably in temperatures from 0 °C to 60 °C.

Storage temperature ranges from -40 °C to 85 °C for safe transport and storage.

Humidity tolerance is 5% to 95% non-condensing for harsh industrial environments.

It fits in a single slot of the RX3i universal backplane for space-efficient installation.

Robust construction withstands industrial vibration and shock levels.

The IC695ALG608 requires an RX3i CPU with firmware version 3.0 or newer.

Configuration uses Proficy Machine Edition version 5.0 SP3 or later.

Compatible terminal blocks include box-style and spring-style models in standard and extended versions.

Extended blocks provide better shielding termination for noise-sensitive applications.

The module supports flash memory for firmware upgrades and feature enhancements.
