Greetings, I am currently holding the GE FANUC IC693CPU360-EL PLC and am eager to determine its manufacturing year. Can you please advise me on where this information may be located? I have thoroughly examined the body of the unit but have been unable to find any indication of its production year.
The IPI document for the specified CPU model is GFK-1512. The most recent version available is GFK-1512P, dated August 2007, covering firmware version 10.74 that corresponds to IC693CPU360-DK. Your CPU360-EL is a more recent model. During GE's ownership of the product line, they provided a "landing page" on their support website for each CPU model, listing firmware versions. It is unclear if Emerson has a similar system in place. As I have retired a few years back, I may not have the latest information on this topic.
Yes, Emerson also has a "landing page" just like other companies.
Typically, there isn't a direct way to determine the manufacturing year of the GE FANUC IC693CPU360-EL PLC by just examining the unit. However, you could potentially contact General Electric with the serial number of your unit. They keep records and should be able to provide you with the manufacturing year. Another option could be checking the dates on any of the documentation that came with your unit if you have them.
Hello there! If you can't find the manufacturing year directly on your GE FANUC IC693CPU360-EL PLC unit, you might want to look at the manual or any related documentation that came with it. These often contain manufacturing dates. Alternatively, the serial number could also provide some clues. Usually, manufacturers like GE FANUC follow a particular sequence or code in their serial numbers which often includes the manufacturing year. If none of these work, reaching out to GE FANUC support with your product details might yield results. They should definitely have that information in their records. Hope this helps!
I think the manufacturing year of GE FANUC PLCs like the IC693CPU360-EL isn't typically indicated on the unit itself. However, you might be able to determine it from the serial number if you have that. Your best bet would be to contact GE FANUC customer support directly with the model and serial numbers; they should be able to help you find the manufacturing year.
Hi there! You might want to check the nameplate or the labeling on the back of the unit, as manufacturers often stamp the manufacturing date there. If that doesn't yield results, try looking for a serial number; sometimes, the production year can be deciphered from that code. Additionally, you could reach out to GE FANUC support directly or check their official documentation for guidance on how to interpret the serial number. Good luck!
Hey! Have you checked the label on the back or the side of the unit? Sometimes, if you peel back any protective covers, you might find a date code or manufacturing sticker there. If that doesn’t work, the serial number can often be a good clue; you can contact GE FANUC support with that, and they should be able to help pinpoint the manufacturing year. Good luck!
