Product Description

Description

The General Electric IC693ACC301 is a long-life lithium backup battery specifically designed for the GE Fanuc Series 90-30 programmable logic controller (PLC) platform. This essential component is utilized to maintain the contents of the CMOS RAM memory in the CPU during power outages or when the main system power is turned off, ensuring that valuable application programs, configuration data, and register values are preserved.

The battery is easily accessed by removing the cover plate located at the bottom of the power supply faceplate. It comes securely mounted on a plastic clip attached to the inside of this cover and connects to the CPU through a dedicated cable equipped with a Berg female connector. Designed for maximum reliability and operational continuity, the IC693ACC301 can be safely replaced while power is applied to the PLC, minimizing costly system downtime.

Features

  • Maintains volatile CMOS RAM memory contents during power-down conditions
  • Long-life lithium chemical composition designed for industrial environments
  • Equipped with a standard Berg female connector for secure mating to Series 90-30 power supply boards
  • Hot-swappable design allows replacement while power is applied to the PLC
  • Mounts neatly into the dedicated battery cavity behind the power supply cover plate
  • Integrated super capacitor support provides temporary memory backup during battery disconnection

Applications

  • GE Fanuc Series 90-30 PLC CPU memory retention
  • Industrial automation and manufacturing control systems
  • Water and wastewater treatment facilities
  • Packaging and material handling equipment
  • OEM machinery requiring reliable non-volatile program storage backup

Technical Specifications

Parameter Specification
Manufacturer General Electric (GE Fanuc)
Catalog Number / SKU IC693ACC301
Product Type RAM Memory Backup Battery
Compatible Platform Series 90-30 PLC Systems
Cell Chemistry Lithium
Nominal Voltage 3 VDC
Connection Type Cable with Berg Female Connector
Shelf Life 5 Years at Room Temperature (25 degC)
Country of Origin United States

Connections / Interfaces

The IC693ACC301 features a two-wire cable terminated with a small Berg female connector. This connector plugs directly into one of two identical male connectors mounted on the Series 90-30 power supply printed circuit board. The connection path routes through the power supply baseplate connector and across the backplane board to the RAM circuits, ensuring continuous power delivery to the memory architecture.

Installation Guidelines

To prevent the loss of RAM memory contents during battery replacement, ensure you follow proper handling procedures. The battery can be replaced with PLC power turned on, provided qualified personnel perform the task using insulated tools. Carefully insert a small screwdriver into the battery cover removal slot beneath the cover plate, rotate 45 degrees to release, unplug the old battery connector, swap the battery on the retaining clip, plug in the new unit, and snap the cover back into place. Always verify battery age using the four-digit date code before installation.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the GE IC693ACC301 battery?
The IC693ACC301 is a lithium backup battery used to maintain the contents of the CMOS RAM memory in GE Fanuc Series 90-30 PLC CPUs when main system power is turned off.
Can the IC693ACC301 battery be replaced while the PLC is powered on?
Yes, the battery can be replaced with power applied to the PLC. This allows you to change the battery without shutting down the system or losing your program, provided standard safety procedures are followed.
Where is the backup battery located in the Series 90-30 system?
The battery is housed behind a small cover plate located at the bottom of the power supply faceplate and is mounted on a plastic clip attached to the inside of that cover.
How long does the IC693ACC301 battery last in service?
Battery life depends on operating temperature and CPU usage, but a shelf life of up to 5 years is typical, with active continuous backup service averaging 1 to 2 years depending on the specific CPU model.
How can I check the manufacturing date of the battery?
The battery features a four-digit date code stamped by the manufacturer, where the first digit represents the year in a 10-year cycle, the second digit represents the month, and the remaining digits indicate the week and day.
