GE Fanuc IC670MDL241 Control Series Module

IC670MDL241 Details

The 240VAC Input Module GE Field Control IC670MDL241 provides two isolated groups of 8 discrete inputs each.

A network of resistors and capacitors establishes input thresholds and provides input filtering for the GE Field Control IC670MDL241.

Data from all 16 inputs on the GE Field Control IC670MDL241 are placed into a data buffer.

Module Operation

A network of resistors and capacitors establishes input thresholds and provides input filtering.

Optoisolators provide isolation between the field inputs and the module’s logic components.

Data from all 16 inputs are placed into a data buffer. The module’s circuit LEDs show the current states of the 16 inputs in this data buffer.

Parallel–to–serial converters change input data from the data buffer into the serial format needed by the Bus Interface Unit.

After checking the Board ID and verifying that the module is receiving appropriate logic power from the Bus Interface Unit (which is reflected by the state of the module’s Power LED), the Bus Interface Unit then reads the filtered, converted input data.

IC670MDL241 Production

The GE Fanuc IC670MDL241 input module is a discrete input module from the Field Control product series.

It is an AC voltage module with a voltage rating of 240 Volts AC.

The 16 input points that it is equipped with are divided into 2 isolated groups.

These isolated input groups both need to draw their power from an external AC power supply (1 external power supply per group for a total of 2 external power supplies, while the module itself gets its power from the Bus Interface Unit or BIU that it is installed with.

The inputs on the IC670MDL241 module will respond to voltage levels between 0 and 265 Volts AC at 47 to 63 Hertz.

The BIU not only powers the whole module but it can also provide the module with intelligent processing features like the input configurations.

The module can also receive intelligent processing from elsewhere in the system.

The GE Fanuc Field Control IC670MDL241 input module is made to operate within a system of capacitors and resistors that will provide the module with input filtering by establishing the input thresholds required to provide the filtering.

The complete system also includes optoisolators that provide the isolation between the logic components in the module and the field inputs, and a data buffer that stores data from all 16 of the module’s inputs.

The on response time and off response time ratings for each input are both 20 milliseconds.

The on-state current rating for the IC670MDL241 input module is 4 to 10 milliamps while the off-state current rating is 0 to 1.5 milliamps.
