Product Overview
The GE IC670MDL740J is a 16-channel electromechanical relay output module engineered for the GE Fanuc Series 90-30 programmable logic controller(PLC)platform,serving as a critical interface between the control system and field-level actuators.Designed to directly switch both AC and DC loads up to 2 amperes per channel,the GE IC670MDL740J eliminates the need for external interposing relays in a wide range of industrial applications—from valve solenoids and pilot lamps to small contactors—thereby simplifying panel design,reducing wiring complexity,and lowering total cost of ownership.
Unlike solid-state output modules limited to specific voltage types,the GE IC670MDL740J leverages robust mechanical relays with single-pole,single-throw(SPST)normally open(NO)contacts that provide true galvanic isolation between the PLC logic side and the field power circuits.Each of its 16 outputs operates independently,with no shared common terminal,ensuring that a short circuit or overload on one channel does not affect the remaining outputs—a key reliability feature in multi-device control systems.The GE IC670MDL740J is fully compatible with standard Series 90-30 I/O carriers such as the IC670CHS001,making it ideal for both centralized control cabinets and distributed remote I/O stations connected via Genius bus communication modules like the IC670CMM001.

Main Features and Advantages
Universal AC/DC switching capability:The GE IC670MDL740J supports mixed-voltage environments by allowing each channel to independently switch either AC or DC loads within its rating.This flexibility is invaluable in retrofit projects or multi-machine lines where legacy equipment operates on different power standards.
Independent fault containment:With no shared return path among outputs,a failure on one channel—such as a shorted solenoid coil—will not disable other functions.This architecture enhances system availability,particularly in continuous-process industries like water treatment or packaging where unplanned downtime is costly.
Visual diagnostics and serviceability:Front-panel LEDs provide real-time status indication for all 16 channels,enabling rapid troubleshooting without probing live circuits.The removable terminal block allows field wiring to remain intact during module replacement,reducing maintenance time from hours to minutes.
Proven reliability in harsh environments:The relays are rated for high inrush currents(e.g.,from incandescent lamps or transformer primaries)and feature gold-flashed contacts for low-voltage signal integrity.Combined with conformal coating on internal PCBs,the GE IC670MDL740J withstands humidity,dust,and electrical noise common in industrial settings.
Seamless integration with Series 90-30 ecosystem:The module plugs directly into standard I/O carriers and communicates natively with Series 90-30 CPUs,supporting both local rack mounting and remote I/O configurations over the Genius fieldbus—ensuring long-term compatibility in existing installations.
Application Field
The GE IC670MDL740J is extensively deployed in industries relying on mature yet mission-critical GE Series 90-30 control systems.In municipal water and wastewater facilities,it actuates chemical dosing pumps,backwash valves,and blower motors—often operating unattended for months.In food and beverage plants,the GE IC670MDL740J controls pneumatic diverters,capping heads,and reject gates on high-speed lines,where its mechanical relays tolerate frequent cycling better than some solid-state alternatives.Similarly,in power generation auxiliary systems—such as coal handling,ash removal,or cooling towers—it provides dependable switching for motors and dampers under demanding environmental conditions.
Beyond greenfield builds,the GE IC670MDL740J plays a vital role in lifecycle extension strategies.Many asset owners choose to retain their Series 90-30 infrastructure for non-core processes due to its stability and low failure rate,using modules like the GE IC670MDL740J to replace aging outputs or expand I/O capacity without migrating to a new platform.Its continued availability ensures operational continuity for thousands of legacy systems worldwide.

Installation and Maintenance
Pre-installation preparation:Install the GE IC670MDL740J into a compatible I/O carrier such as the IC670CHS001,ensuring it is fully seated and latched.Verify that the terminal block is securely fastened and that field wiring uses stranded copper conductors(0.2–2.5 mm²)with ferrules.Confirm that external load power sources are isolated during wiring to prevent accidental energization through connected devices.
Maintenance recommendations:During routine inspections,check for signs of contact wear—such as pitting,discoloration,or intermittent output behavior—and replace the GE IC670MDL740J if relay chatter or LED flicker is observed.Although rated for 100,000+operations,modules in high-cycle applications should be monitored closely.Always keep spares in climate-controlled storage to preserve internal lubrication and contact plating.When replacing,disconnect field power first,remove the terminal block,swap the module,and reattach wiring—minimizing downtime while maintaining safety.
