The GE Fanuc Emerson IC670GBI002 is considered as a field control bus interface unit that offers a terminal block current of 16 milliamperes and reliability of 600,000 hours. This BIU offers 127 bytes of both network inputs and outputs per bus scan. The IC670GBI002 consumes a power of 48 Volt-amperes at 115 Volts AC and 24 Watts at 125 Volts AC at full load. This unit has an inrush current of 20 Amperes within a short time of 3 milliseconds. The BIU supports either AC or DC power supply with an output voltage of 6.5 Volts DC. The IC670GBI002 supports an input voltage range either from 105 Volts DC to 150 Volts DC or from 90 Volts AC to 135 Volts AC at a frequency range from 47 to 63 Hertz. This unit has a holdup time of 20 milliseconds and can be easily mounted on a DIN rail.

This BIU can be employed to monitor host architectures with either a single or dual bus architecture. The unit contains LED indicators to show the module status and the presence of electrical power. This module contains a 9 pin sub-D connector to link a terminal or a display monitor. The interface module has a torque of 9 newton-meters. The IC670GBI002 can connect eight (8) I/O modules. This module contains a metal grounding strip at the bottom of the terminal block and weighs approximately 440 grams (0.97 pounds) while shipping; it operates at zero (0) to 55 degrees Celsius (32 to 131 degrees Fahrenheit) for industrial applications.

The GE Fanuc IC670GBI002 is a bus interface control unit. This control unit features many self-diagnostic features. Along with conducting self-assessment, it can conduct diagnosis on other connected modules. It is primarily set up for establishing a connection between the computer, and the GE field control I/O. It can form a similar connection between industrial computers and PLCs. Unlike other modules, it can exchange 128 kilobytes of input and 128 kilobytes of output data at once. Furthermore, it comes with support for Genius datagram communications. Users can expect this module to conduct self-assessment tests, the results of which are displayed on the handheld monitor. Users can also program this module to relay the diagnosis information of a hosted device. 

For BUS interface units, the GE Fanuc IC670GBI002 bus interface field control unit is designed to be mounted on a terminal block. Unlike other similar modules, it can be replaced, and repaired without having to take it apart, and most importantly, reconfiguring the I/O wiring. It comes with support for hot removal, and hot insertion. If installed correctly, this module is able to cancel out all the noise that is usually generated in any industrial setting. In Celsius, the maximum working temperature for this control unit is 55 degrees. The maximum optimal temperature while in storage is 85 degrees Celsius. The minimum temperature threshold for this range is -40 degrees Celsius. 

Five percent to ninety-five percent (5% - 95%) non-condensing humidity range for this GE Fanuc IC670GBI002 module field control bus interface unit. It has an estimated lifespan of 183,000 hours. If used properly, its lifespan can be further expanded. Twenty-four (24) volts direct current (DC) is the nominal direct current voltage on this module.
