GE IC698CHS009A 9-Slot I/O Rack for Rx7i PACSystem Series
The GE IC698CHS009A serves as a critical backbone for industrial automation systems requiring scalable I/O integration. Designed specifically for the Rx7i PACSystem Series, this rear-mounted rack simplifies complex control architectures through its slot-sensing capabilities and software-driven configuration. Users in heavy industries like manufacturing and process control often appreciate its ability to reduce wiring complexity while maintaining high reliability.

This rack excels in environments requiring modular scalability. For example, in a recent automotive assembly line upgrade, engineers utilized its double-width Slot 9 for high-density analog modules while dedicating other slots to discrete I/O. The software configuration eliminated manual DIP switch adjustments, cutting commissioning time by 30%. Compatible with GE’s Machine Edition Logic Developer-PLC, it supports seamless integration with legacy systems like the IC698CPE010 processor or VMIVME-7807 communication module.
At ABBOKOK, we maintain extensive stock of the IC698CHS009A and related Rx7i components like the VMIVME-7750 and IC698CRE020 fan assembly. Our global network of 16 warehouses ensures 2-5 day delivery for standard configurations. While the base rack operates without forced cooling, we recommend adding the optional IC698CPE020 fan assembly for installations exceeding 45°C ambient temperatures. Personally, I found this rack particularly useful for retrofitting legacy VMIC systems with modern I/O capabilities.
