GE IC698CPE020-JV Central Processing Unit – PACSystems RX7i Series
When a PACSystems RX7i CPU fails mid-production, the consequences are immediate and severe: assembly lines halt, batch processes abort, and every minute of downtime translates directly into lost revenue and missed delivery commitments. The IC698CPE020-JV is the computational heart of the RX7i rack — without it, every I/O module, every communication card, and every field device in the system is rendered inert. There is no workaround, no bypass, and no partial operation. Sourcing a verified replacement quickly is not optional; it is the only path back to production.
The IC698CPE020-JV occupies a flagship position within GE’s PACSystems RX7i platform — GE Fanuc’s most powerful rack-based PLC architecture designed for large-scale, mission-critical industrial automation. Featuring a 1.1 GHz Intel processor, 64 MB of user RAM, and dual embedded Ethernet ports, this CPU module is engineered for high-throughput applications where scan-time determinism and network redundancy are non-negotiable. It is widely deployed across power generation, oil & gas, automotive manufacturing, and water treatment facilities globally, making it one of the most sought-after legacy CPU modules in the industrial MRO market.

Our Quality Assurance Process
Every IC698CPE020-JV unit sourced through Konmask.com undergoes a structured verification process before shipment:
- Visual Inspection: Physical examination for board damage, corrosion, bent pins, and label integrity
- Firmware Revision Verification: Confirmation that the firmware suffix matches the ordered revision (JV)
- Functional Power-On Test: Where test bench infrastructure permits, modules are powered and basic diagnostics are run
- Anti-Static Packaging: All modules are shipped in ESD-safe bags with foam cushioning inside double-wall cartons
- Documentation: Each shipment includes a packing list with part number, serial number (if available), and inspection record
We source from decommissioned industrial facilities, authorized distributors, and vetted surplus channels. We do not sell counterfeit or refurbished-as-new parts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between IC698CPE020 and IC698CPE020-JV?
A: The “-JV” suffix denotes the firmware revision level. The JV revision includes specific software updates and stability improvements over earlier revisions. Always specify the full part number including suffix when ordering to ensure compatibility with your existing system firmware.
Q: Is this module new or used?
A: Stock condition varies. Please contact us for the current availability status of new surplus vs. tested used units. We clearly disclose condition in our quotation.
Q: Can this CPU replace an IC698CPE010?
A: The IC698CPE020-JV (64 MB RAM) is generally backward compatible with applications running on the IC698CPE010 (32 MB RAM), provided the program size does not exceed the lower module’s memory. Confirm with your system integrator before substitution.
Q: Do you provide a warranty?
A: Yes. We offer a standard 90-day warranty against DOA (dead on arrival) and functional defects. Terms are specified in the quotation.
Q: How long does shipping take?
A: International express shipping (DHL/FedEx) typically delivers within 3–7 business days depending on destination country and customs clearance.
Q: Can you supply multiple units for a plant-wide spare parts program?
A: Yes. We regularly fulfill bulk orders for maintenance spare parts programs. Contact us to discuss volume pricing and staggered delivery schedules.
