Description
Product Description
The GE Fanuc IC695ACC400 is a supercapacitor-based Energy Pack designed for PACSystems RX3i CPUs, providing reliable, battery-free backup to preserve CPU memory during power interruptions. By eliminating the need for conventional batteries, this module ensures long-term operational reliability while minimizing maintenance requirements.
Engineered for RX3i CPUs such as the IC695CPE330, the IC695ACC400 delivers sufficient energy to safely transfer user programs and data to non-volatile memory during power loss. The module installs directly onto the CPU via a dedicated connector and features LED indicators for charging status, fault detection, and capacitance health. With a rapid recharge time of under 15 minutes and a lifespan of over 10 years at standard operating temperatures, it is a durable, eco-friendly solution for protecting critical automation logic.
