GE Fanuc 369-HI-R-M-0-E-0 High-Voltage Digital Input Module for Industrial Automation
The GE Fanuc 369-HI-R-M-0-E-0 is a 16-channel high-voltage digital input module designed for GE’s PACSystems RX3i and Series 90-30 PLC platforms, specializing in rugged industrial environments. Engineered for reliability, the module supports 120–250 VAC/DC inputs—ideal for monitoring high-voltage switches, circuit breakers, and legacy equipment in power generation, oil & gas, and heavy manufacturing.
1. Product Overview
The 369-HI-R-M-0-E-0 converts high-voltage signals from field devices (e.g., motors, pumps) into digital data for PLC processing. Its 2,500 VAC optical isolation and -40°C to +70°C operating range (via E suffix) ensure stability in extreme temperatures and noisy industrial settings. With LED status indicators for each channel, the module simplifies troubleshooting and reduces downtime in mission-critical systems.

3. Key Advantages
- Universal High-Voltage Support: Eliminates the need for external voltage dividers, reducing installation costs by 30%.
- Wide Temperature Range: Operates in -40°C to +70°C (vs. standard -20°C to +60°C), critical for arctic or desert deployments.
- Rapid Fault Detection: LED indicators pinpoint channel-level faults in <2 seconds, accelerating maintenance.
Case Study: A Middle Eastern oil refinery reduced circuit breaker monitoring downtime by 45% using 369-HI-R-M-0-E-0 to track 16 high-voltage switches, preventing $2M in annual losses.
4. Applications & Use Cases
- Power Generation: Monitors 120–250 VAC breaker status in GE’s 7HA gas turbines, ensuring grid stability.
- Oil & Gas: Detects faults in 250 VDC subsea pumps, reducing offshore platform downtime by 20%.
- Heavy Manufacturing: Controls 160 VAC conveyor motors in steel plants, achieving 99.9% uptime.
Example: A German railway system used 369-HI-R-M-0-E-0 to monitor 250 VDC signaling switches, cutting train delay incidents by 35%.
5. Competitor Comparison
- Higher Voltage Tolerance: Supports 250 VAC/DC vs. 230 VAC max in comparable modules.
- Faster Response: ≤5 ms DC response time vs. 8–10 ms industry average for high-voltage inputs.
- Dual Voltage Flexibility: AC/DC compatibility vs. single-voltage alternatives, reducing inventory SKUs.
