Technical Features & Benefits
The technical value of the IC695ALG106 becomes clear when examining how it addresses common analog input challenges encountered in the field.
One of its defining features is channel density. Providing sixteen analog inputs in a single module significantly reduces rack footprint. In large systems, this can translate into fewer racks, smaller control cabinets, and lower installation costs. High density also simplifies wiring layouts, as fewer terminal blocks and cable routes are required.
Signal flexibility is another key benefit. The IC695ALG106 supports both voltage and current input ranges, accommodating sensors that output 0–10 V, ±10 V, 0–20 mA, or 4–20 mA signals. This versatility allows engineers to standardize on one input module even when sensor types vary across the plant. In practice, this reduces spare parts inventory and simplifies training for maintenance personnel.
Accuracy and resolution matter in analog systems, and this module delivers 16-bit resolution across its supported ranges. That level of resolution provides fine granularity, allowing control algorithms to respond to subtle changes in process conditions. In temperature control, for example, better resolution can improve stability and reduce overshoot. In flow measurement, it can enhance totalization accuracy.
Noise immunity is often overlooked until problems arise. Industrial environments are electrically noisy, with motors, drives, and switching devices generating interference. The IC695ALG106 is designed with industrial signal conditioning and filtering to mitigate these effects. While no analog system is immune to poor wiring practices, this module provides a solid foundation for stable measurements when installed correctly.
Diagnostics are another area where the module adds value. Channel-level status information allows the PLC to detect abnormal conditions such as out-of-range values or wiring faults. These diagnostics can be tied into alarms or maintenance notifications, helping teams address issues before they escalate into downtime.
From a lifecycle perspective, the IC695ALG106 benefits from being part of the RX3i ecosystem. Firmware compatibility, software support, and long-term availability all align with GE’s PACSystems roadmap. For plant owners, this reduces the risk associated with obsolescence and supports gradual system evolution rather than disruptive replacements.
