Power Supply Solutions for Industrial Automation
In modern manufacturing, reliable power distribution is critical for maintaining uptime and protecting sensitive control systems. The IC695PSD040 power supply module addresses these needs within the PACSystem RX3i platform. It provides stable DC power to the backplane, ensuring consistent operation of connected modules.
Introducing the IC695PSD040 Power Supply Module
The IC695PSD040 is a power supply module manufactured by GE Fanuc Automation, part of the PACSystem RX3i series. It is designed to mount on an RX3i universal backplane and occupies Slot 0. This module delivers up to 40 Watts of output power, with three separate output voltages: 5.1 VDC, 3.3 VDC, and 24 VDC.
The 24 VDC output can be used to energize circuits on relay output modules, adding flexibility for system designers. The module includes an on/off switch on the front panel for easy maintenance.
Technical Specifications and Performance
The IC695PSD040 accepts an input voltage range of 18 to 30 VDC for module start and 12 to 30 VDC for module run. Maximum input power is 60 Watts at full load. The output power is 40 Watts maximum, with 5.1 VDC output delivering 0 to 6 Amps and 3.3 VDC output delivering 0 to 9 Amps.
Ride-through time is 10 ms, meaning the module can maintain acceptable output levels during brief input power interruptions. Inrush current is limited to 4 Amps for a maximum of 100 milliseconds. The module features four LED indicators: Power, P/S Fault, Overtemperature, and Overload.
Applications in Modern Manufacturing
In a typical packaging line, the IC695PSD040 supplies stable power to the RX3i backplane, supporting multiple I/O modules that control sensors and actuators. Its 24 VDC output can directly power relay output modules, simplifying wiring and reducing external power supply requirements.
For material handling systems, the module's 10 ms ride-through time helps maintain control during momentary voltage dips, preventing unnecessary shutdowns. The overtemperature and overload indicators allow operators to quickly identify and address power issues.
Comparison with Similar Power Supply Modules
Compared to other PACSystem RX3i power supplies, the IC695PSD040 offers a specific set of features. It does not support redundant power supply assembly or increased capacity mode. If rack power demand exceeds 40 Watts, additional modules must be installed on a separate backplane.
Up to two IC695PSD040 modules can be daisy-chained, but this does not increase total output capacity. The module uses wiring terminals accepting 14 AWG to 18 AWG wire. It provides no isolation between input and output, and ripple is 50 mV.
Frequently Asked Questions About the IC695PSD040
What is the input voltage range for the IC695PSD040?
The input voltage range is 18 to 30 VDC for module start and 12 to 30 VDC for module run. The nominal rated voltage is 24 VDC.
What output voltages does the IC695PSD040 provide?
The module provides three output voltages: 5.1 VDC (nominal, range 5.0 to 5.2 VDC), 3.3 VDC (nominal, range 3.1 to 3.5 VDC), and 24 VDC. The 24 VDC output can be used to energize relay output module circuits.
Can the IC695PSD040 be used in a redundant power supply configuration?
No, the IC695PSD040 does not support power supply redundancy or increased capacity mode. If more power is needed, additional modules must be placed on a separate backplane.
