Application & Technical Notes
As an automation component, the IC670ALG240 is intended for deployment in panel-based control cabinets and machine enclosures where the GE product portfolio equipment is installed. It performs a defined automation function within the control system and is selected to match the installed GE platform.
Specific electrical and mechanical ratings depend on the exact configuration and suffix of the part; the original datasheet should be consulted for the definitive specification.
Maintenance & Diagnostics
Inspect terminals and connectors for corrosion or looseness, and confirm the module seats correctly in its carrier. Always de-energise the circuit and follow lock-out/tag-out before handling; refer to the official instruction bulletin for service procedures.
Sourcing & Procurement
When sourcing the IC670ALG240, distinguish three supply tiers: (1) genuine GE stock from an authorised distributor; (2) compatible equivalents or surplus/NOS (new-old-stock) from third parties; (3) alternative parts offering equivalent function. Genuine supply carries the full warranty and traceability; compatible or alternative items may be cheaper but should be validated for form, fit, firmware and certification before use in a live system. PLCXpert publishes this page as an independent reference and does not sell the part — verify every claim with the manufacturer or your distributor.
Confirm mechanical and electrical compatibility with your GE product portfolio installation and the intended function. Lead times and pricing vary by region and lifecycle status; obtain a current quote from an authorised channel rather than relying on stale listings.

Description
| Note | The IC670ALG240 is an analog input module from GE Fanuc. This module is specifically part of the Field I/O control series that is designed for installation along a Bus Interface Unit (BIU) and an expansion rack. This module provides Sixteen (16) analog input channels in a single group, accepting current input signals in the form of 0-20 mA and 420 mA and may be operated at an input signal range of 0-25 mA. The IC670ALG240 can be used to interface field transmitters such as Pressure, Level, Flow, Temperature, Turbidity and similar types. It may also be used to interface output signals of panel meters, data loggers, single-loop controllers, Variable Frequency Drives (VFD), signal splitters, signal isolators and other devices. This module comes with a built-in Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) available to each input channels that converts the analog data to digital format with resolution of 16-bits. The IC670ALG240 has a maximum current draw of 251 mA from the BIU power supply. It has an operating temperature range of 0-55 Degree Celsius and requires a current loop power supply 20-28 VDC, nominal with 10% ripple voltage. It has temperature coefficient of +/-.002% of value per degree C, typical, and +/-.005% of value per degree C, maximum. This module supports ANSI Type 2 2-wire transmitter and Type 3 3-Wire transmitter wiring configuration. The IC670ALG240 is capable of performing internal diagnostics such as module not calibrated, calibration data out of range, calibration write failure, ready to calibrate, invalid command, A/D conversion incomplete, Factory calibration not available, individual channel high and low alarm, underrange and overrange conditions. The GE IC670ALG240 input module is a 16-channel analog current input module. At a single time, the module is able to take in 16 loop inputs by using a common power supply. The module is able to accept 2-wire or 3-wire current transmissions and then change them into digital input values. The input current to the module ranges between 0 and 25 milliamps. The module supports both the word and bit data types. The IC670ALG240 input module can be easily calibrated and the calibration data can be stored in the flash memory. The module uses 50 Hertz and 60 Hertz frequencies for data acquisition. The module is intelligent and it comes with diagnostics and alarm features that can report over range and open wire alarms. The alarms in the module can be configured by the operators. The GE Fanuc IC670ALG240 input module has a resolution of 16 bits. The input current span for 16 bits ranges between 0 and 25 milliamps. The current loop power supply of the module is between 20 and 28 Volts, and it has a maximum ripple of 10%. For operation, the temperature should be set between 0 and 55 degrees Celsius. The IC670ALG240 input module uses an active RC filter 2nd order as the hardware filter. The common mode rejection from the channel to the ground is 86 dB. The input module has several useful features. It comes with the Channel Active mode that helps to set a specific channel as active or inactive. It has advanced filtering options like the input filter, line filter, and averaging filter. |
