Product Role & System Fit

In industrial automation, the chassis is the silent backbone of a PLC system—the unglamorous structure that holds everything together yet defines the system’s potential. The GE IC697CHS750 is such a backbone: a Series 90-70 rack chassis engineered by GE Fanuc to house CPUs, power supplies, I/O modules, communication cards, and expansion units with modular simplicity and robust rigidity.

For engineers designing or upgrading control systems in discrete manufacturing, process plants, or critical utilities, rack choice is not trivial. The chassis dictates not only the physical layout but also electrical integrity, cooling pathways, and maintenance accessibility. The GE IC697CHS750 excels in these respects. Built to support a range of Series 90-70 modules, it provides a standardized environment that simplifies system integration, parts management, and long-term support.

Inside large control cabinets or distributed control islands on the factory floor, this chassis serves as the physical platform where automation comes to life. Slots within the rack accept GE Fanuc CPU modules, such as high-performance processors, alongside I/O cards for discrete, analog, and specialty signals. For larger systems, expansion racks couple to the main chassis via bus expansion modules. Throughout, the chassis maintains backplane alignment and connector stability even under vibration, heat, and wiring stress.

Compatibility with Series 90-70 modules means the GE IC697CHS750 integrates seamlessly with legacy and current GE Fanuc automation parts. Whether it’s replacing an existing rack or designing a new system, the chassis reduces risk because familiar tools, part numbers, and wiring practices carry over without reinvention. In fact, many engineers still prefer Series 90-70 chassis like this one precisely because of their proven system fit and predictability in diverse industrial contexts.
