The IC697MEM735 memory module is an extended memory module. Manufactured by GE Fanuc Automation, it is classified as the 90-70 series of GE programmable controllers, and the IC697MEM735 module is available in 4 versions. Four different module versions have capacities of 128 KB, 256 KB and 256 KB non-volatile flash memory, 256 KB and 512 KB. The IC697MEM735 memory module is used as a CMOS memory extension for GE 780, 781, 782, 788, and 789 cpus and does not require any additional installation slots. The IC697MEM735 module retains the memory on the CPU. This is because the IC697MEM735 module has a built-in lithium battery, which ensures that the user's memory will not be lost in the event of power failure. In addition, the lithium battery is responsible for ensuring that the calendar clock on the PLC or CPU remains accurate. Whenever a lithium battery needs to be replaced, it is recommended to insert a new battery before removing the old one.
The 32-bit GE Fanuc IC697MEM735 CMOS extended memory module has a shelf life of approximately 68 years at an optimal operating temperature of 10 degrees Celsius or 20 degrees Fahrenheit. Memory retention can last up to 6 months without applied power. The IC697MEM735 memory module is designed to meet VME standards, and the extended memory board and CPU module are rated at 2.25 amps. The installation of the IC697MEM735 memory module should only be done by a qualified technician and ensure that the installation process follows the instructions in the manufacturer's instruction manual. Ensure that the expansion memory board is properly aligned with the CPU connector to ensure that the CMOS expansion memory module works properly.
