Where It Excels in Industrial Use

• Designed for the GE VersaMax PLC platform, the IC200PWR102K provides expanded DC power for VersaMax CPUs, network interface units (NIUs), and I/O modules in industrial automation systems.

• Ideal for factory automation panels, machine control systems, OEM equipment, packaging lines, and distributed I/O installations requiring additional backplane power capacity.

• Commonly used where a standard VersaMax power supply is insufficient and additional 3.3 VDC capacity is needed for larger I/O configurations.

• Suitable for replacement, retrofit, and expansion projects involving existing GE VersaMax installations.

Key Strengths at a Glance

• Provides 120/240 VAC input power with regulated 5 VDC and 3.3 VDC outputs for VersaMax system modules.

• Delivers up to 1.5 A total output current, supporting larger VersaMax configurations.

• Supports up to 1.0 A at 3.3 VDC output, making it suitable for expanded I/O architectures.

• Includes overload and short-circuit protection to improve system reliability and protect connected automation hardware.

• Can operate as a primary station power supply or as supplemental power when installed with a power supply booster carrier.
