Description
Product Description
The IC697ACC724 is a dedicated rack-mounted fan assembly engineered for GE Fanuc Series 90‑70 PLC systems. Designed to maintain optimal airflow in high-density racks containing CPUs, power supplies, and I/O modules, this fan assembly prevents overheating, prolongs component lifespan, and ensures stable operation under harsh industrial conditions.
The unit mounts directly to the bottom of the PLC rack and channels cool air from below while exhausting warm air through module slots. Depending on revision, the assembly contains two or three integrated fans to optimize airflow, complemented by a polyurethane foam filter to reduce dust accumulation. Its compact, rugged construction supports continuous operation even in elevated ambient temperatures.
