Description
The GE IC698CPE010 is a high-performance Central Processing Unit (CPU) module for GE Fanuc’s PACSystems RX7i platform, engineered for mission-critical industrial automation control. Operating at 1.0 GHz with an Intel Celeron M processor, this module delivers deterministic execution for complex process logic, motion control, and data handling in demanding environments. The GE IC698CPE010 features 32 MB battery-backed user memory and supports up to 128 MB of CompactFlash storage for program backup and data logging. As the core of the RX7i series, it integrates dual Ethernet ports (10/100Base-T) for simultaneous programming and HMI communication while maintaining IEC 61131-3 compliance for ladder logic, structured text, and function block programming. Designed for continuous operation in power generation, oil and gas, and heavy manufacturing, this CPU ensures seamless integration with GE’s VersaMax I/O and legacy Series 90-30 systems.

Main Features and Advantages
Deterministic execution: The GE IC698CPE010 achieves 0.1 ms logic scan times for time-sensitive applications like turbine control. Dual independent Ethernet ports allow simultaneous SCADA communication and programmer access without performance degradation.
Robust data integrity: Battery-backed SRAM retains logic during power loss, while the built-in CompactFlash slot enables automated program backups and historical data archiving. The GE IC698CPE010 supports hot-swappable module replacement, reducing downtime during maintenance.
Advanced diagnostics: Integrated system health monitoring tracks CPU temperature, memory usage, and network traffic. Event-triggered snapshots capture pre-fault states for rapid troubleshooting. The GE IC698CPE010 also enables predictive maintenance through vibration/temperature analytics via CIMPLICITY.
Application Field
The GE IC698CPE010 controls turbine generator sets in power plants, managing synchronizing logic and load shedding during grid disturbances. In pipeline operations, it executes leak detection algorithms and pump station sequencing across remote sites. Automotive manufacturers deploy the GE IC698CPE010 for robotic welding cell coordination, achieving sub-millisecond motion synchronization.
For water treatment facilities, this CPU integrates SCADA systems with chemical dosing controls and filter backwash cycles. The GE IC698CPE010 also anchors safety instrumented systems (SIS) in refineries, running SIL 2-certified logic for emergency shutdowns.
