IC693CPU374
- High-Speed Processing: 133 MHz processor with a 0.15 ms/1K logic scan cycle—20% faster than many industrial CPUs.
- Dual Ethernet Connectivity: Two built-in ports enable simultaneous communication with multiple devices (e.g., programming tools, HMIs, cloud platforms).
- Flexible Memory Configuration: 240 KB user memory supports up to 2,000 timers/counters and configurable registers for analog/digital applications.
- Rugged Design: Operates in harsh environments (0°C to 60°C), with IP67-rated protection against dust and moisture.
- Legacy Compatibility: RS-485 port (via power supply) supports legacy systems and SNP/SNPX protocols.
Industries:
- Manufacturing (assembly lines, robotics)
- Energy (oil/gas, power generation)
- Water/wastewater treatment
- Smart infrastructure (HVAC, logistics)
Case Study:
A North American power plant integrated the IC693CPU374 to manage a distributed control system (DCS). The module’s dual Ethernet ports facilitated real-time data exchange between turbines and a SCADA system, reducing operational delays by 15%. Its compact design allowed easy retrofitting into existing racks, minimizing downtime.
Compared to similar PLC CPUs:
- Dual Ethernet Ports: Most 竞品 offer one port, limiting concurrent network access.
- Faster Scan Cycle: 0.15 ms/1K logic vs. 0.2–0.3 ms/1K logic for comparable models.
- Memory Flexibility: Configurable registers (128–32,640 words) outpace fixed-memory alternatives.
- Cost-Effectiveness: Offers premium features (e.g., embedded Ethernet) at a 10–15% lower cost than high-end redundant CPUs.

IC693CPU374
- Compatibility: Ensure compatibility with GE Fanuc Series 90-30 racks (e.g., IC693CHS397) and software (VersaPro 2.03+, CIMPLICITY ME 2.60+).
- Environment: For extreme temperatures, pair with a high-capacity power supply (e.g., IC693PWR330) for extended reliability.
- Scalability: Combine with GE I/O modules (IC693MDL730, IC693MDL940H) for modular system expansion.
- Communication Needs: Use dual Ethernet ports for modern networks; leverage RS-485 for legacy device integration.
-
Installation: Mount on DIN rail with proper grounding; avoid EMI sources.
-
Power Stability: Use a filtered 5V DC supply (e.g., IC693PWR330) to prevent voltage fluctuations.
-
Firmware Updates: Regularly update via GE’s Proficy software to access new protocols (e.g., Modbus TCP) and bug fixes.
-
Battery Maintenance: Replace the power supply battery every 3–5 years to retain memory during outages.
-
Fault Handling: Clear faults via software (Proficy) before reinitializing; avoid clearing memory unless necessary.
