The IC660BBA104 is a current source combination I/O module manufactured by GE Fanuc, typically used in GE Fanuc Genius fieldbus systems or related industrial automation environments.
Isolated channels
Advanced diagnostics
Dedicated Bus Switching Module control
A Current Source Analog I/O block has four 4 to 20mA current inputs. Each input provides a 24 volt current loop power supply and is isolated from all other circuits within the block. The module also includes two output channels that provide both precise control and power for 4-to-20mA current loops. While the output channels and Bus Switching Module (BSM) circuitry share an electrical common, they remain strictly isolated from the input stage, ensuring signal integrity within complex redundant architectures. Furthermore, the IC660BBA104 offers exceptional configuration flexibility, all circuits support independent linear scaling. This allows raw internal values to be converted directly at the block level into engineering units—such as pressure, temperature, or flow—effectively reducing the processing load on the host controller. All circuits on the block support independent selection of linear scaling values. These values can be used to convert the internal values into engineering units suitable for the application.

When using the IC660BBA104, the primary focus should be on the polarity and grounding safety of its 115 VAC control power. As a "current-source" design, it is essential to verify if field instruments require isolated power and to configure loops strictly according to its channel-to-channel isolation features to avoid ground loop interference. Additionally, ensure proper connection to the BSM (Bus Switching Module) ports if used in redundant architectures. During commissioning, prioritize setting correct linear scaling values and diagnostic alarm limits via a Hand-Held Monitor (HHM) or software, and strictly avoid hot-plugging the terminal block while energized.
It is a Genius I/O Analog Input/Output Block manufactured by GE Fanuc (now Emerson).
What is the official name of IC660BBA104?
The official name is 115 VAC Current-Source Analog I/O Block.
Can IC660BBA104 be used in redundant systems?
Yes. It includes dedicated terminals for controlling a Bus Switching Module (BSM) to support dual-bus redundancy.
What is the primary usage of IC660BBA104?
