Compatible Replacement & Equivalent Models
The following models are functionally compatible or serve as direct/near-direct replacements for the IC695ALG708-CB. Always verify firmware version and backplane compatibility before substitution.
- IC695ALG708-EA — Upgraded revision of the CB; same channel count and input types, enhanced EMC performance. Recommended drop-in replacement.
- IC695ALG708-CC — Intermediate revision; compatible with same backplanes and PME configuration.
- IC695ALG704 — 4-channel universal analog input; use when only 4 channels are required, freeing a slot for expansion.
- IC695ALG600 — 8-channel voltage/current analog input (no TC/RTD); suitable for pure V/I applications at lower cost.
- IC694ALG220 — Series 90-30 platform equivalent (4-channel); requires Series 90-30 backplane — not a direct RX3i replacement.
- Emerson VE4008S3T1B2 — DeltaV equivalent for mixed TC/RTD/V/I; cross-platform migration option.
Note: Revision suffix (CB, CC, EA) indicates hardware revision. Functional specifications are identical unless noted. Confirm with your system integrator for critical applications.
Why Choose the Original Model
- Universal Input Flexibility: A single module handles voltage, current, TC, and RTD — eliminating the need for multiple specialized cards.

- Communication: Compatible with PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and serial backplane configurations
- Not Compatible With: Series 90-30 (IC694 series) or Series 90-70 backplanes
Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to determine the best module for your application:
- Need TC/RTD + V/I in one module? → IC695ALG708-CB / EA (8-channel universal) ✓
- Only voltage/current inputs required? → IC695ALG600 (lower cost, 8-channel V/I only)
- Fewer than 8 channels needed? → IC695ALG704 (4-channel universal, saves backplane slot)
- Migrating from Series 90-30? → Verify backplane — IC694 modules are NOT compatible with RX3i chassis
- Upgrading existing CB revision? → IC695ALG708-EA is the recommended upgrade path
- High-density requirement (>8 channels per slot)? → Consider IC695ALG728 (16-channel analog input)
- Budget-sensitive procurement? → Certified refurbished IC695ALG708-CB units available — contact us for pricing

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can IC695ALG708-EA replace IC695ALG708-CB directly?
A: Yes. The EA revision is a hardware upgrade of the CB with identical functional specifications and the same PME configuration. No software changes are required.
Q: Is IC695ALG708-CB compatible with Series 90-30 backplanes?
A: No. The IC695 series is exclusively for PACSystems RX3i chassis. Series 90-30 uses IC694 series modules.
Q: Can I mix TC and RTD inputs on the same module?
A: Yes. Each of the 8 channels is individually configurable for voltage, current, TC, or RTD input type via PME software.
Q: What is the difference between IC695ALG708 and IC695ALG704?
A: The ALG708 provides 8 channels; the ALG704 provides 4 channels. Both support the same universal input types and occupy a single backplane slot.
Q: Do you supply certified refurbished units?
A: Yes. Refurbished units undergo full functional testing and carry a 12-month warranty. Contact us for availability and pricing.
Q: How do I configure the module after installation?
A: Configuration is performed via Proficy Machine Edition (PME). Each channel’s input type, range, and scaling are set in the hardware configuration tree.
