GE FANUC IC3600EPSA1 Circuit Board Industrial Control Module

GE FANUC IC3600EPSA1 Circuit Board  Industrial Control ModuleBasic Information

Manufacturer: GE FANUC

Part Number: IC3600EPSA1

Series: Mark I - II Speedtronic56

Features and Functions

Connection: It is equipped with twenty - five male metal prongs, which are utilized to connect with other circuit boards, enabling reliable electrical connections within the system56.

Energy Regulation: Resistors on the board restrict the flow of electrical energy. The amount of energy restricted by each resistor can be identified through the colored bands on the outside. There are thirty - one average light blue resistors and five large dark brown resistors56.

Signal Processing: It is furnished with transistors that are used to amplify or modify electronic signals or electrical power. For example, there are two small circular silver transistors and three circular dark blue transistors56.

Data Storage: Two integrated circuits are included to store all the programming data required for the circuit board to operate properly56.

Variable Resistance Adjustment: The board has two teal - colored variable resistors or potentiometers. Workers can use the small flat head screws on them to adjust the amount of energy flowing through the circuit board56.

Energy Flow Control: Diodes are employed to control the energy flow, allowing it to flow in only one direction. The board is equipped with three large black diodes and around ten small orange and black diodes56.

Energy Storage: Capacitors create an electrical field to store additional energy for the circuit board to use later. The IC3600EPSA1 has two small polypropylene capacitors, three larger polypropylene capacitors, and one orange pcb mount electrolytic capacitor56.

Application Scenarios

This circuit board is widely used in various industrial control fields, such as power generation, petroleum, chemical industry, and metallurgy. It plays a crucial role in speed control, process regulation, and system monitoring of industrial equipment.

Market Status

The IC3600EPSA1 has been discontinued by the manufacturer2. But it is still in demand in the aftermarket. Some professional electronic component trading platforms and repair service providers, such as Radwell and Ax Control, still offer sales and repair services for it256

Precautions for Use

Installation Environment: It should be installed in a dry, well - ventilated, dust - free, and non - corrosive gas environment. Avoid installing it in places with high temperature, high humidity, vibration, or strong electromagnetic interference.

Wiring Specifications: Wire strictly in accordance with the specifications and requirements of the terminal strip to ensure that the wires are firmly connected and avoid problems such as loose connections or short - circuits.

Load Matching: Select an appropriate power terminal strip according to the power and current requirements of the connected devices to ensure that it can bear the corresponding load.

Regular Maintenance: Regularly inspect and maintain the power terminal strip, clean dust and debris, check for loose connections, and promptly detect and address potential problems.
