The 5-slot expansion chassis accommodates additional system modules in space-constrained panels while delivering direct communication lines across connected hardware racks. Operating across temperature ranges from 0 deg C to 60 deg C, the unit extends system channel density over a high-speed backplane interface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHardware Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"table\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIC693CHS398H\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGE Fanuc\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.75 lbs (1.25 kg)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e127 mm x 216 mm x 184 mm (5.0 in x 8.5 in x 7.25 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating Temp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0 to 60 deg C (32 to 140 deg F)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDependent on connected modules (backplane bus powered)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSlots Available\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 Slots\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSystem Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVersaMax \/ Series 90-30 system expansion setups\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStorage Temperature\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-40 to 85 deg C (-40 to 185 deg F)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnvironmental Protection\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIndustrial enclosure rated\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDeterministic Network and High-Density Expansion\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IC693CHS398H expansion baseplate maintains high backplane bus communication velocity across all 5 option slots, routing parallel data signals back to the main CPU node. Designed to support flexible I\/O density scaling, the chassis enables local and remote expansion without increasing scan cycle jitter. Internal bus traces and interface connectors strictly observe firmware flash compatibility standards, ensuring transparent channel mapping and deterministic backplane synchronization across extended rack topologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Can the IC693CHS398H expansion base accept a main CPU module?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: No, the IC693CHS398H is a dedicated 5-slot expansion base and does not support CPU module mounting, which must reside in a primary CPU baseplate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: How is operating power distributed to modules installed on this baseplate?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Power is supplied through the backplane expansion cable originating from the primary system power supply, with overall consumption depending on the installed module payload.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What environmental temperature limits apply to this hardware during operation and storage?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The operating temperature range spans 0 deg C to 60 deg C (32 deg F to 140 deg F), while the storage temperature tolerance spans -40 deg C to 85 deg C (-40 deg F to 185 deg F).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eField Installation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMount the 5-slot expansion baseplate securely to a flat panel or enclosure backplate inside an industrial cabinet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnsure line power to the primary host rack is de-energized prior to connecting or disconnecting the expansion cable at the backplane bus interface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlign expansion modules with the slot guides of the baseplate and press firmly to seat the backplane connectors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnect the functional earth ground terminal on the chassis directly to the enclosure protective earth (PE) bus.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoute expansion bus interface cabling away from high-voltage AC lines and variable frequency drive output cables to prevent signal noise coupling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"GE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45498755285107,"sku":"IC693CHS398H","price":88.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/4348\/2227\/files\/IC693CHS398J_Cocoai_03461549-279d-45ea-84e4-47f257b54c19.jpg?v=1789444865","url":"https:\/\/www.dcssupplier.com\/ar\/products\/ge-fanuc-ic693chs398h-5-slot-expansion-baseplate","provider":"DcsSupplier Limited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
