Modernize Legacy GE PLC Systems

Planned migration for facilities that cannot afford disruption.

TAG Solutions helps facilities modernize legacy Series 90 and RX7i control system swith a lower-risk approach built around preservation, phased execution, and controlled cutover planning.

Planned modernization gives facilities more control over timing, scope, and outage windows.

Still Running Series 90 or RX7i Controllers?

Series 90-30, 90-70, RX7i, Genius, and related legacy GE platforms

These systems remain in service across manufacturing, utilities, and public infrastructure, often supporting critical operations that cannot tolerate unnecessary disruption.

For many facilities, the question is no longer whether these systems still run. It is how to plan modernization before support constraints, parts availability, and platform familiarity make the project harder to manage.

Modernize Without Rebuilding the Entire System

TAG Solutions’ preservation-first approach focuses on minimizing unnecessary changes while modernizing Series 90 and RX7i platforms.

Preserve Ladder Logic where practical

Reuse existing wiring and compatible I/O to minimize cabinet changes

Phase migrations around plant shutdown schedules to reduce downtime

Support software migration to PACSystems RX3i to reduce conversion effort

Execute migrations with experienced GE platform engineers

Real Results:

How Deep GE Expertise Reduced Downtime by 80%

A conveyor belt manufacturer in North Carolina needed to upgrade from GE 90-30 and 90-70 PLCs. Other approaches estimated four months of downtime. TAG Solutions completed the migration in six weeks by preserving existing control logic and applying deep GE platform expertise.

Controlled Migration Through Parallel Conversion

Series 90-70 to RX3i Conversion Rack

This staged conversion approach allows existing GE 90-70 systems to remain operational while the new RX3i platform is installed, validated, and prepared for cutover. By preserving field wiring and leveraging conversion racks, downtime is planned, minimized, and controlled.

Modernize Legacy PLC Systems Without Losing Control of Your Timeline
