GE Fanuc IC697BEM713 Bus Transmitter Module

Description

The GE Fanuc IC697BEM713 Bus Transmitter Module is a key component of the GE Fanuc 90-70 Series, designed to expand PLC system I/O capacity and communication capabilities by connecting multiple PLC racks into a unified, larger control system. It features a high-speed parallel bus expansion interface that supports extending the main rack to up to 7 additional IC697 PLC racks, with a maximum total connection distance of 50 feet, and offers a data transfer rate of 500 Kbytes/sec for efficient system operation. A high-performance programming interface simplifies system programming and debugging, while its configuration is streamlined with no DIP switches required, using user-friendly configuration software for quick setup. Built for industrial environments, it delivers high reliability and durability, with an IP67 protection rating to withstand harsh conditions. Technical specifications include an operating temperature range of 0 degrees Celsius to 60 degrees Celsius, 24VDC input voltage, 700mA output current, and dimensions of 162mm x 116mm x 68mm, with a weight of approximately 375g. It supports industrial communication protocols including GE SP (90 Series Protocol) and DF1, and uses DIN rail mounting for easy installation in control cabinets.
