More Information

Overview Manuals Compatibility Environment Monitor Protection

Features:

  • IC600BF908 sources eight field outputs from 24 VDC power.
  • Two isolated groups distribute four output points each.
  • Individual fuses and LEDs protect and indicate every output.

IC600BF908 provides eight discrete source outputs for a Series Six installation, dividing the points into two groups with separate high and neutral connections.


Each Darlington output driver is optically coupled to the controller side, and every point has a dedicated fuse and state indicator on the faceplate.


The module switches user-supplied 19–40 VDC power, supports up to 2 A steady-state current per point, and changes state within 1 ms under the documented conditions.

Apter Power can quote and source the General Electric IC600BF908 24 VDC Source Output Module, provide the applicable manufacturer documentation, and assist with group-power wiring and replacement planning.

Series Six rack and load compatibility

  • Rack location: IC600BF908 can operate in a Series Six I/O rack or an I/O slot of a Model 60 CPU rack.
  • Reference allocation: The rack backplane switches assign eight consecutive output references.
  • Load arrangement: Outputs 1–4 and 5–8 form separate groups, each with its own high and neutral connections.
  • Field conductors: Each terminal accepts one No. 12 AWG wire or two No. 14 AWG wires.

DC-output environmental and load limits

  • Operating temperature: The specified ambient range is 0 to 60 °C at the outside of the rack.
  • Storage temperature: The manufacturer lists −20 to +80 °C.
  • Relative humidity: IC600BF908 is rated for 5 to 95% non-condensing humidity.
  • Temperature derating: Maximum total ON-state current is 16 A from 0–40 °C and 8 A at 60 °C.

Output and fuse-state monitoring

  • Point LEDs: Eight indicators show whether each corresponding output is commanded ON or OFF.
  • Fuse LEDs: A dedicated blown-fuse indicator identifies an open fuse for each output circuit.
  • Program references: Faceplate states can be compared with the eight consecutive output references during commissioning.
  • Marking area: The lens provides space to record the function or destination associated with each output.

Field isolation and circuit protection

  • Optical coupling: The output-driver path electrically separates user field devices from Series Six logic.
  • Individual fusing: Every output circuit uses its own 3 A normal-blow AGC fuse.
  • Power grouping: Two separate four-point supplies limit a field-power problem to the affected group.
  • Electrical limits: The documented maximums include 2 A steady-state current, 7 A inrush current, and a 2.25 V ON-state drop.
Description
The General Electric IC600BF908 eight-point DC output module switches user-supplied 24 VDC power to field loads from a Series Six I/O rack or Model 60 CPU rack.

Outputs on IC600BF908 are divided into two banks of four, each with its own high and neutral supply connections. This permits the two output groups to be powered as separate field circuits.

A Darlington switching stage drives every IC600BF908 point, while an on-board buffer holds the output data received from the backplane. The group drivers are disabled automatically if the I/O chain or CPU fails.

At the faceplate, IC600BF908 provides one state indicator and one blown-fuse indicator for each output. Individual 3 A normal-blow fuses protect the eight field circuits and can be checked without interpreting the program state.

FAQS

The following is a list of questions commonly asked by our customers. Please contact us if you have a question about our process that is not answered below.
Why can an IC600BF908 load stay off while its output command is present?
IC600BF908 should be checked for the correct group field supply, load return, blown-fuse indication, and intact 3 A output fuse.
Can the two IC600BF908 output groups use separate DC sources?
IC600BF908 provides separate H1/N1 and H2/N2 connections, so each bank of four outputs can have its own user DC source.
What happens to IC600BF908 outputs after an I/O-chain failure?
IC600BF908 automatically disables the affected group of output drivers when the I/O chain or CPU fails.
How should a source load be wired to IC600BF908?
IC600BF908 supplies current from its output terminal to the load, with the opposite side of the load returned to the matching group neutral.
How are IC600BF908 program output numbers assigned?
IC600BF908 uses the rack-backplane DIP switches behind its slot to map the eight terminals to eight consecutive program output numbers.
Which field conductors fit an IC600BF908 terminal?
IC600BF908 accepts either one No. 12 AWG conductor or two No. 14 AWG conductors at each terminal.
What should be recorded before replacing IC600BF908?
IC600BF908 replacement records should capture the two group supplies, H/N returns, eight program references, fuse states, and field-load labels.
