Featuring six independent output circuits, this module is engineered to supply precision 4 to 20 mA analog signals directly to field devices without requiring an external loop power supply. In addition to standard current loop outputs, channels 5 and 6 provide configurable support for voltage applications. Built for robust plant-floor integration, the unit incorporates advanced diagnostics, software-configurable scaling, and dedicated control for Bus Switching Modules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOperating within the GE Genius I\/O network, the IC660BBA105 delivers reliable performance with an output accuracy of 0.15% of full scale reading at 25 degrees Celsius and a fine output resolution of 6 microamps. The module internally manages power isolation between the loop circuits and the rest of the block, ensuring high operational integrity. Configurable features such as Hold Last State, circuit scaling to engineering units, and individual circuit fault reporting allow engineers to tailor the output behavior precisely to process requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSix independent 4 to 20 mA analog output circuits with integrated loop power\u003c\/li\u003e\n

contaminants and excessive moisture. Maintain a minimum clearance of 2 inches above and below the module to ensure adequate cooling airflow. Mount the unit securely using 8-32 screws and star washers through the upper and lower flange notches to maintain proper ground integrity. Connect the green ground screw to a reliable plant ground system using a minimum AWG #12 wire. Always ensure power is removed before servicing or replacing the electronics assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"General Electric","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53770188620139,"sku":"IC660BBA105","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0953\/3227\/0443\/files\/ic660bba103_1200x1200_9dcead70-0346-4c5b-b3bf-4dea4429fe41.jpg?v=1787737988","url":"https:\/\/www.plcprotech.com\/products\/general-electric-ic660bba105-genius-current-source-analog-output-block","provider":"PLC ProTech Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
