GE IC200PWR102E Expanded AC Power Supply Module

FAQ

Q1: What is the GE Fanuc IC200PWR102E used for?
The IC200PWR102E is an expanded power supply module for the VersaMax PLC platform. It supplies regulated backplane power to VersaMax CPUs, Network Interface Units (NIUs), and I/O modules installed in the control station.

Q2: What input voltage does the IC200PWR102E support?
The module supports two AC input ranges: 85–132 VAC for 120 VAC systems and 176–264 VAC for 240 VAC systems. The correct input range is selected using a jumper configuration.

Q3: What output voltages are provided by the IC200PWR102E?
The power supply provides 5 VDC and 3.3 VDC outputs for VersaMax system modules. The total output current capacity is 1.5 A maximum, with up to 1.0 A available from the 3.3 VDC output.

Q4: Can the IC200PWR102E be used as an additional power supply?
Yes. Besides being used as the primary station power source, the IC200PWR102E can be installed on a Power Supply Booster Carrier to provide supplemental power for larger VersaMax I/O configurations.

Q5: Does the IC200PWR102E have protection functions?
Yes. The module includes short-circuit protection and overload protection to help protect the power supply and connected VersaMax modules during abnormal operating conditions.

Q6: How is the input voltage selected on the IC200PWR102E?
For 120 VAC operation, the jumper must be installed. For 240 VAC operation, the jumper must be removed. Incorrect jumper selection may cause improper operation or damage to the module.

Q7: What does the “E” revision indicate?
The “E” suffix identifies the hardware revision of the IC200PWR102 power supply module. Revision changes generally represent manufacturing and lifecycle improvements while maintaining compatibility with VersaMax systems.

Q8: What should be checked before replacing an IC200PWR102E module?
Before replacement, verify the AC input voltage setting, jumper position, VersaMax CPU or NIU compatibility, total backplane power requirements, mounting connection, and wiring condition to ensure proper installation and reliable operation.
