GE Fanuc IC697CHS790G Series 90-70 9-Slot Rack
The GE Fanuc IC697CHS790G, also cataloged as the IC697CHS790 9-Slot Rack, operates as a dedicated hardware component for module structural housing and backplane signal interconnection within Series 90-70 PLC platforms. This VME standard C.1 mechanical chassis provides physical mounting slots and backplane power distribution for power supply units, CPUs, and I/O modules across a integrated backplane.

Brand-Specific Hardware Architecture
The backplane bus communication velocity across the Series 90-70 chassis complies with VME standard C.1 execution rules to maintain deterministic multi-card logic execution. The integrated backplane trace matrix delivers high-speed parallel signal routing between the CPU slot and peripheral I/O cards while sustaining a maximum 20 A current capacity on the primary 5 VDC rail. Direct physical contact pin geometry limits trace noise and supports seamless firmware flash compatibility checks between processor modules and local expansion boards.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do technicians configure the physical rack address when setting up multi-rack Series 90-70 expansion systems?
A: System integrators set the rack identification number by configuring four hardware jumpers located directly behind the rack power supply module before powering up the backplane.
Q: Can modules be inserted or extracted from the IC697CHS790G chassis while backplane power is active?
A: No, field engineers must isolate primary input power from the power supply unit prior to inserting or removing IC697 modules to prevent bus contention errors and connector pin damage.
Field Installation Guidelines
Mount the IC697CHS790G rack securely into a standard 19-inch enclosure frame using front mounting flanges, or fasten it directly to an industrial enclosure backpanel using rear mounting points. Maintain a minimum vertical clearance of 3 inches above and below the chassis frame to ensure natural convection airflow across installed module heat sinks.
Establish a low-impedance ground connection by bonding the chassis frame ground lug to the main panel protective earth (PE) bus using a heavy-gauge copper strap. Ensure that all module retaining screws are fully torqued to maintain positive earth continuity and prevent card movement under high-vibration field conditions.
