Overview

The IC670ALG630 is an automation component from GE. Thermocouple, 8 Channel Module ALG630 GE Fanuc Field Control PLC IC670A IC670AL IC670ALG.

Application & Technical Notes

As an automation component, the IC670ALG630 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 IC670ALG630, 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

Thermocouple, 8 Channel Module ALG630 GE Fanuc Field Control PLC IC670A IC670AL IC670ALG

Description

Note	The GE Fanuc IC670ALG630 Field Control Module is specialized to receive voltage signals in the order of millivolts coming from thermocouple sensors. The IC670ALG630 Analog Input Module for thermocouples can receive up to 8 independent input signals using 8 customizable channels to handle temperature changes in the order of one tenth of a degree (Fahrenheit or Celsius). Up to 8 GE Fanuc IC670ALG630 Thermocouple Input Modules can be linked to a GE Fanuc BIU (Bus Interface Unit), making it able to receive and process up to 64 independent temperature measurements in a single, small, and powerful control system. The configuration of the reference parameters of each Field Control module is stored in the BIU and the configuration can be customized by using a proprietary handheld programmer. Given the open construction of the GE Fanuc Field Control IC670ALG630 Thermocouple Input Module, it is recommended to install it inside a protective enclosure that comes from the factory with an IP 20 protection rating. The operating temperature of the module ranges between 0 degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit) and 55 degrees Celsius (131 degrees Fahrenheit), so it is important to keep the devices at a tolerable distance from the sources of heat (or excessive cold) that they are receiving temperature signals from. The GE Fanuc IC670ALG630 Thermocouple Input Module does not require external power to operate, because its power is supplied from the bus interface unit. The module has 1 LED light on the front side that indicates its status. If the LED is on, the module is operating properly, if the LED is off, there is no power to the module, and if the LED blinks, there a system fault.
