Overview

The IC670ALG620 is an automation component from GE. The GE Fanuc IC670ALG620 Field Control RTD Input Module can connect RTD temperature metering devices to the GE Field Control station for controlling or monitori.

Application & Technical Notes

As an automation component, the IC670ALG620 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 IC670ALG620, 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.

Specifications

The GE Fanuc IC670ALG620 Field Control RTD Input Module can connect RTD temperature metering devices to the GE Field Control station for controlling or monitoring the user applications. Configuration is done through a hand-held device that is connected to the main Bus Interface Unit, which serves as a central processing unit for the distributed control system. Technical specifications for IC670ALG620

Description

NoteThe GE Fanuc IC670ALG620 Field Control RTD Input Module is a solid-state module designed and manufactured by GE Fanuc to accommodate 4 inputs from independent Resistance Temperature Detectors or RTDs. These RTD inputs are compatible with both 3-wire and 4-wire sensors that are made of copper, nickel/iron, nickel, or platinum. The GE Fanuc IC670ALG620 Field Control RTD Input Module has several available configurations that are accessed through GE's proprietary Bus Interface Unit by using a handheld programmer. If any of the channels is not being used in the user’s applications, it can be configured as an inactive channel. Users can choose among several RTD types according to the pre-defined tables in the module. Up to 8 Field Control modules of any type, including the GE Fanuc IC670ALG620 Field Control RTD Input Module, can be connected to a single Bus Interface Unit for controlling a piece of machinery or industrial process. These 8 modules together with their Bus Interface Unit form what is called a Field Control station that is the equivalent of a modular PLC system. The GE Fanuc IC670ALG620 Field Control RTD Input Module is easy to install because it only needs to be inserted into an I/O Terminal Block that is connected to the main Bus Interface Unit in the system. There are 2 resistance ranges to choose from and they are 0 to 500 ohms and 0 to 3000 ohms. There is only one status LED at the front of the module. When the LED is on, it indicates normal module operation, when it is off, the module has no power, and when it is flashing, there is a fault in the module.
