The GE Fanuc IC660BBA021 is a 24/48 volt DC Resistive Temperature Detector (RTD) Input Block, part of the Genius I/O Series, designed for precise temperature monitoring in industrial automation applications. This module supports temperature measurement from various RTD materials, including platinum, nickel, and copper, with the capability to report data to the CPU in engineering units such as tenths of degrees Celsius, tenths of degrees Fahrenheit, tenths of Ohms, or counts, depending on user configuration. The IC660BBA021 features six input circuits organized into three groups, each comprising two circuits, and is factory-calibrated to detect temperature changes as minor as 0.1°C, thereby eliminating the need for subsequent recalibration.

This unit measures resistances ranging from 0 to 5,000 Ohms and allows users to adjust parameters for input filter time, alpha type, alarm thresholds, linearization, and RTD resistance. With dimensions of 8.83 inches in height, 3.5 inches in width, and 3.94 inches in depth, the IC660BBA021 includes convenient Unit OK and I/O Enabled LEDs to indicate operational status. Advanced diagnostic software is integrated to capture installation and runtime errors such as electrical shorts, wiring mistakes, and threshold violations, providing clear fault messages like “Overrange” and “Input Shorted” for ease of troubleshooting.

Please be aware that severe radio frequency interference exceeding 10 V/m may impact measurement accuracy without triggering error alerts. For applications requiring a different voltage supply, note that the IC660BBA101 variant offers a higher voltage range of 115 VAC/125 VDC while maintaining identical features to the IC660BBA021.

This module weighs approximately 4 pounds and supports Handheld Monitor (HHM) connections, confirming its versatility for various industrial environments.
