IC693CPU372
Product Name
IC693CPU372 Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) Processor Module (serves as the “central processing core” in GE Fanuc Series 90-30 PLC systems, specializing in executing control programs, processing I/O data, and managing communication with peripheral devices. With balanced performance and robust reliability, it is widely used in medium-scale industrial automation applications such as material handling, packaging machinery, and HVAC systems)
Product Description
The IC693CPU372 is a mid-range PLC processor module designed for GE Fanuc’s Series 90-30 control systems, engineered to handle moderate complexity control tasks with efficiency. In a warehouse material handling system, this module coordinates conveyor belts, robotic sorters, and palletizers by processing input signals from proximity sensors and barcode scanners, then generating output commands to drive motors and actuators. Its ability to execute up to 10,000 ladder logic instructions per second ensures timely response to dynamic changes in material flow, preventing bottlenecks and optimizing throughput.
In commercial building HVAC systems, the IC693CPU372 regulates temperature, humidity, and air flow by integrating data from thermostats, pressure transducers, and CO₂ sensors. It runs closed-loop control algorithms to adjust damper positions, fan speeds, and chiller operations, maintaining comfortable conditions while minimizing energy consumption. The module supports expandable I/O through Series 90-30 backplanes, allowing system integrators to scale from 16 to 1024 I/O points as building requirements grow. Its built-in diagnostic tools monitor memory usage, I/O communication, and power status, providing actionable alerts via front-panel LEDs or connected HMIs to facilitate predictive maintenance. With a rugged design that withstands industrial temperature ranges and electrical noise, it delivers consistent performance in both indoor and equipment room environments.
