GE Fanuc IC670GBI002 Field Control Genius Bus Interface Unit
The IC670GBI002 (Model: IC670GBI002) is a high-performance Genius Bus Interface Unit (BIU) designed for the GE Fanuc Field Control product line. This module serves as the primary intelligent gateway between distributed Field Control I/O modules and the Genius Bus network. The IC670GBI002 (Part Number: IC670GBI002) is engineered to facilitate high-speed, deterministic data exchange, allowing a central controller to manage remote I/O blocks across distances of up to 7,500 feet.
Equipped with robust diagnostic capabilities, the IC670GBI002 (Model: IC670GBI002) supports CPU redundancy and the hot insertion/removal of I/O modules, making it an essential component for high-availability systems. It provides a stable 6.5 VDC output to power the local I/O station backplane while maintaining electrical isolation from the Genius network. Although currently listed as discontinued by the manufacturer, this BIU remains a cornerstone for maintaining and retrofitting legacy Field Control architectures in manufacturing and process automation environments.
Detailed Technical Specifications
The IC670GBI002 (Part Number: IC670GBI002) is built for high reliability with a MTBF of over 183,000 hours.
