Robust Electronic Short-Circuit Protection
The GE Fanuc IC670MDL730 provides reliable 24VDC switching within the Field Control system. This 8-point discrete output module features integrated electronic short-circuit and overcurrent protection on every channel. Consequently, it safeguards both the module and connected field devices from potential wiring faults.
Intelligent Fault Reporting and Diagnostics
The module actively monitors each output for overcurrent conditions, generating a detailed fault report. Three LED indicators clearly display output status, power supply health, and any active faults. This immediate visual and system-level feedback enables rapid troubleshooting and maintenance response.

Simplified Power and System Integration
The module draws its operational power directly from the compatible Bus Interface Unit (BIU). Its standard 24VDC nominal input aligns with common industrial control power supplies. This design simplifies cabinet layout by eliminating the need for a separate, dedicated module power source.
Application and Compatibility Notes
The IC670MDL730 is ideal for driving solenoids, pilot lights, and small relays in a Factory Control system. Engineers select it for its robust built-in protection, which increases system uptime and reliability. Ensure compatibility by using it with a IC670GBI002 Genius bus interface module (revision 2.10 or later) or a Profibus interface unit.
