Product Role & System Fit

In advanced industrial automation, maintaining synchronized process data across redundant controllers is essential for uninterrupted operations. The IC695RMX128 plays a critical role in these environments as a redundancy memory exchange module designed for the GE Fanuc RX3i PACSystems series. It serves as a dedicated device that mirrors or exchanges memory contents between primary and backup CPUs, enabling seamless failover and real-time data consistency across controllers.

Within a redundant PLC configuration, two processors operate in hot standby: one active and one ready to take over instantaneously should a fault occur. The IC695RMX128 is the link between them. It continually synchronizes shared memory between the CPUs, ensuring that both units maintain identical data sets. This capability is crucial in mission-critical applications such as chemical processing, power generation, and transportation systems, where system failure can result in significant safety risks and financial loss.

This module fits into a single slot in an RX3i PACSystems rack alongside CPUs, I/O cards, and communication modules. It works in conjunction with reflective memory networks or in direct redundant CPU pair configurations, providing a scalable solution for systems that demand high availability without compromising processing performance.
