Product Overview
The GE IC695ACC600 is a cold junction compensation (CJC) kit designed for the GE Fanuc PACSystems RX3i platform, serving as a critical accessory for the IC695ALG600 universal analog input module 113. Engineered to ensure accurate temperature measurements in industrial automation systems, this kit provides two independent CJC channels that dynamically correct for ambient temperature variations in thermocouple applications. By eliminating errors caused by fluctuating junction temperatures, the IC695ACC600 enables precise data acquisition in processes requiring high reliability, such as chemical processing, power generation, and pharmaceutical production.
Key features include compatibility with 8-channel universal analog inputs (0–4000 ohm resistance range) and hot-swap capability, allowing module replacement without system downtime 4. The kit integrates seamlessly with the IC695ALG600 to support thermocouple, RTD, current, voltage, and resistance inputs, while its compact design (140 mm x 124 mm x 25.4 mm) minimizes space requirements in control cabinets. Compliance with UL 508 and CE Mark certifications ensures safety and global applicability .
