GE IC695ACC413 Energy Storage Module

Product Overview

The GE IC695ACC413 is a specialized CapPack Energy Storage Module engineered as a field-replaceable unit for the IC695ACC403 Energy Pack. Used in conjunction with PACSystems RX3i and RX7i controllers, this module utilizes high-capacity capacitor technology to provide a reliable bridge of power during main outages.

Key Features and Engineering Advantages

• Hot-Swappable Functionality: The module is designed for "live" replacement, meaning maintenance teams can swap out an aged CapPack without shutting down the controller or interrupting the industrial process.

• Intelligent Charging Logic: The module communicates directly with the Energy Pack base to manage charging rates. The front-panel STAT LED provides clear diagnostic states: green blinking for active charging and solid green for a "ready" state.

• Advanced Life-Cycle Reporting: Unlike standard batteries, the IC695ACC413 reports its health directly to the PLC CPU. Utilizing status bits %S0014 and %SA0011, the system can automatically trigger maintenance alarms when the module reaches its end-of-life (EOL).

• Firmware Synchronization: The module supports automatic firmware updates pushed directly from the RX3i/RX7i controller, ensuring that the energy management logic is always up to date with the latest system improvements.

• Maintenance-Free Capacitor Design: By using capacitors instead of chemical batteries, the CapPack offers a superior service life and faster recharge times, even after deep discharge events during extended outages.

• Ruggedized Mounting: The four-point screw-down mounting system ensures that the module remains electrically and mechanically secure in high-vibration environments such as robotics or heavy machinery.
