Description
The IC698CRE030 is a premium CPU module for GE Fanuc’s PACSystems RX3i platform, designed for industrial automation, energy, and smart manufacturing. With a 600 MHz Intel Celeron processor and 1GB DDR3 RAM, this module delivers 0.07 μs/boolean execution speed—3x faster than legacy PLCs—supporting up to 250,000 I/O points (via expansion) for complex systems like automotive assembly lines, power plants, and water treatment facilities.
The
IC698CRE030 serves as the brain of GE’s PACSystems RX3i, enabling
real-time control,
edge computing, and
secure remote monitoring via dual Ethernet ports (EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP) and USB 2.0. Its
hot-swap redundancy (N+1 configuration) ensures 99.999% uptime, while
-40°C to +70°C temperature tolerance and
IP20-rated design make it suitable for extreme environments. The module supports
IEC 61131-3 languages (Ladder, Structured Text) and integrates with GE’s Proficy software for seamless programming.

IC698CRE030
- Ultra-Fast Processing: 0.07 μs/boolean reduces cycle times by 60% in automotive welding lines (case study: German factory cut defect rates by 45%).
- Scalability: Supports 200+ expansion modules (I/O, motion, safety), eliminating rack upgrades for 10+ years (U.S. food plant saved $200K in hardware costs).
- Redundancy Excellence: N+1 hot-swap cuts downtime to <50ms, critical for 24/7 operations (e.g., Middle Eastern refinery avoided $1M/month in outages).
- Manufacturing: Controls 1,500+ robots in automotive plants, achieving ±0.05mm precision (Toyota affiliate reduced rework by 30%).
- Energy: Manages solar farm microgrids with 10ms response time, optimizing grid stability (Australian site increased energy yield by 8%).
- Water Treatment: Synchronizes 500+ pumps/stations, reducing water loss by 12% (Canadian utility saved $3M/year).
Case Study: A U.S. semiconductor fab deployed IC698CRE030 in dual redundancy, eliminating 12 unplanned shutdowns over 2 years, preserving $50M in production value.
- Processing Power: 600 MHz vs. 400 MHz in comparable Allen-Bradley CompactLogix, accelerating AI-driven predictive maintenance.
- Redundancy Cost: N+1 kits priced 20% lower than Siemens S7-1500, with simpler wiring.
- Temperature Range: Operates at -40°C vs. -20°C industry standard, critical for Arctic oil platforms.
IC698CRE030
- Redundancy Needs: Choose IC698CRE030 for simplex setups; pair with IC698CRE031 for N+1 in critical processes.
- Memory Requirements: Opt for IC698CRE030-H (8GB eMMC) for edge data logging in IIoT applications.
- Environment: Use IC698CRE030-EX (IP66-rated) for dusty/wet environments (e.g., cement plants).
- Cooling: Ensure 15mm airflow clearance; add fans for ambient >50°C in enclosed cabinets.
- Wiring: Terminate Ethernet with Cat6a cables for 10Gbps future-proofing.
- Firmware: Update quarterly via GE’s PAC Manager to unlock AI/ML algorithms (e.g., predictive failure detection).
