General Electric IC670MDL640 Field Control Discrete Input Module
- Manufacturer: General Electric (now under Emerson Automation)
- Series: Field Control
- Model/Part Number: IC670MDL640
- Description: 16-Point Discrete Input Module with 24 VDC positive/negative logic for industrial automation systems
Overview
- The General Electric IC670MDL640 is a 16-point discrete input module from the Field Control series, originally manufactured by GE Fanuc and now managed by Emerson Automation. Designed for industrial automation, it provides 16 discrete inputs in a single group, supporting both positive and negative logic configurations. It is ideal for interfacing with sensors, switches, and other digital devices in applications such as process control, manufacturing, and industrial systems. The module integrates with a Bus Interface Unit (BIU) for distributed I/O operations.
