Key Functional Characteristics

  • Dual-Voltage Output: Simultaneous 5 VDC (for PLC backplane) and 24 VDC (for external devices) reduce the need for additional power supplies.
  • High Power Density: Supports up to 10 A at 5 VDC, enabling power distribution to multiple I/O modules in large systems.
  • Redundancy Support: Compatible with external redundant power configurations to enhance system uptime.
  • Diagnostic LEDs: Three green indicators display module status, rack activity, and I/O bus termination presence.
  • Plug-and-Play Integration: No DIP switches; software-configurable via PLC programming tools.
  • Fieldbus Compatibility: Supports SRTP and Modbus TCP/IP protocols for seamless network integration.

Application Scenarios

  • Industrial Automation: Powers PLC systems in manufacturing lines, process control units, and assembly stations.
  • Energy Sector: Stabilizes power supply for turbine controllers, substation monitoring, and renewable energy management systems.
  • Transportation: Ensures reliable operation in rail signaling, traffic light control, and port automation.
  • Heavy Machinery: Used in vibration monitoring systems for turbines, compressors, and gearboxes in steel, power, and chemical plants.
  • Legacy System Upgrades: Ideal for retrofitting Series 90-70 PLCs with modern power management capabilities.

Comparison with Competitors

  • vs. Rockwell 1756-PA75: The IC697PWR724 offers comparable 5 VDC power (10 A vs. 12 A) but with lower 24 VDC output (2 A vs. 4 A). It excels in Series 90-70 ecosystems, while the 1756-PA75 is optimized for ControlLogix systems.
  • vs. Siemens PS407: Unlike the PS407’s single 24 VDC output, the IC697PWR724 provides dual voltages, reducing cabling complexity in mixed-voltage setups.

Design & Compatibility

  • Form Factor: Rack-mounted module occupying one slot in Series 90-70 chassis.
  • Expansion Capability: Supports daisy-chaining up to seven additional racks via interconnecting cables (max 15 meters).
  • Software Tools: Configurable through Proficy Logic Developer PLC Machine Edition, supporting ladder logic (LDI), instruction list (IL), and structured text (ST).
