I/O modules

Overview and Primary Function

The IC695ACC402 is a dedicated energy pack module designed for the PACSystem RX3i platform. This unit, originally from GE Intelligent Platforms and now part of Emerson Automation, provides critical backup power to the CPE330 CPU. Specifically, it ensures sufficient energy to transfer memory contents from RAM to non-volatile flash during a power loss. As a result, this process maintains system integrity and prevents data loss in your automation applications.

Key Technical Specifications and Physical Parameters

The IC695ACC402 features precise electrical ratings and a compact form factor for reliable DIN rail mounting.

Design Features and Operational Status

This module installs directly onto a standard DIN rail and connects to the host controller via its dedicated cable. The IC695ACC402 provides clear visual status through its local IN, STAT, and OUT LEDs. Furthermore, it communicates key conditions like Charging, Fault, or Low Capacitance directly to the CPE330 controller. For optimal performance, the module operates within an industrial temperature range of -25°C to 60°C.

Integration and Firmware Management

Always connect the IC695ACC402 to the CPE330 CPU when system power is disconnected, securing it with the supplied captive screws. Additionally, this energy pack supports field-upgradeable firmware, which it receives directly from the partnered PACSystem RX3i controller. This design ensures long-term compatibility and system reliability for demanding industrial environments.
