Description
Overview
The IC670MDL640 digital output module is part of GE’s FANUC Field Control family and provides sixteen DC output channels for distributed control applications. Designed for flexibility, the module supports both positive and negative logic, making it suitable for a wide range of wiring standards and control architectures.
Electrical Characteristics
Each channel accepts DC signals within a 0–30 VDC range, with a nominal operating voltage of 24 VDC. Optical isolation is used to protect upstream electronics and ensure stable operation in electrically noisy environments. The module draws approximately 7.5 mA per channel, with a typical total current consumption of 75 mA.
The IC670MDL640 offers fast response times—typically 6 ms, with a maximum of 10 ms—allowing it to handle time‑sensitive control tasks. An input impedance of 3 kΩ ensures compatibility with a wide variety of field devices.
System Integration
The module integrates seamlessly with GE’s Genius Bus network through compatible Bus Interface Units, enabling distributed I/O configurations across large industrial systems. It meets CE and UL requirements for industrial installations and is built in a compact housing that conserves panel space.
The on‑state voltage range of 15–30 VDC (with polarity flexibility for negative logic applications) ensures stable switching performance across diverse control environments.
