Redundancy CPU Module IC695CRU320

The GE Fanuc IC695CRU320 RX3i Central Processing Unit is a solid-state automation computer designed and built by GE Fanuc to be used as the logical brain of an application that is implemented by using the RX3i PACSystems platform. One of the most interesting features of this PLC CPU is its capacity to support what is known as “hot standby redundancy,” which means that the users can set up and configure 2 RX3i CPUs to perform the same function in a given application. This feature gives the GE Fanuc IC695CRU320 RX3i Central Processing Unit a great deal of flexibility, in order to guarantee processor redundancy and minimize downtime for time-critical applications. Two built-in serial communication ports, which are one RS-232 port and one RS-486 port, enable this CPU to integrate into the end user’s control algorithm.

The GE Fanuc IC695CRU320 RX3i Central Processing Unit is made of hard and durable plastic, and comes from the factory in an open-style enclosure which is not designed for operation in an industrial environment with high levels of humidity, dirt, debris, or water. For this reason, it is strongly recommended to install the GE Fanuc IC695CRU320 RX3i Central Processing Unit in a properly protected enclosure so that the environmental parameters specified by the manufacturer can be maintained at all times and so the CPU will be safe. Its operating temperature should be kept between 0 and 60 degrees Celsius (32 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit). This CPU can be installed in a GE Fanuc PLC system by means of an RX3i PCI or a Series 90-30-style serial backplane bus.
