Introduction
When your automation system demands reliable backplane power, the GE Fanuc IC200PWR001 delivers consistent performance. This DC Power Supply module from the Versamax series accepts a 24 Volts DC input and provides dual output voltages of 5 Volts DC and 3.3 Volts DC. Designed to power I/O, CPU, and NIU modules, it handles demanding industrial environments with built-in protection against short circuits, overloads, and reverse polarity.
Technical Specifications Breakdown
The IC200PWR001 operates with an input power rating of 11 Watts and maintains a holdup time of 10 Milliseconds, ensuring stable operation during brief power interruptions. Inrush current reaches 20 A at 24 VDC and 25 A at 30 VDC, so plan your upstream protection accordingly. The total output current is 1.5 A maximum, with the 3.3V Output Current capped at 0.25 A maximum. The 5V Output Current equals 1.5 A minus the 3.3 V current used, maximum. This allocation prevents overloading while maximizing usable power for your modules.
Industry Applications
In a typical manufacturing line, the IC200PWR001 serves as the main power supply when mounted on the station’s NIU or CPU module. For larger I/O racks, it acts as a secondary power supply or installs on a power supply booster to extend capacity. Its compact dimensions—133.4 mm (5.25 in) wide by 39 mm (1.54 in) deep, excluding carrier or DIN-rail height—fit easily into crowded cabinets. The short circuit and overload protection minimize downtime by isolating faults before they cascade.
Installation & Setup Guidance
Mount the IC200PWR001 on a DIN rail or carrier within the Versamax backplane. During wiring, ground the DC power to earth/frame ground as required for safety and noise immunity. Verify that the input voltage is 24 Volts DC and that the total load does not exceed 1.5 A maximum. If using the 3.3V output, remember that the 5V output current reduces by the 3.3 V current used. No extended power or isolated power options are available for this module.
Maintenance & Reliability
Periodically inspect the module for signs of overheating or physical damage. Verify that the input power remains within 24 Volts DC and that the output currents stay below the maximum ratings: 0.25 A maximum on 3.3V and 1.5 A minus 3.3 V current on 5V. The reverse polarity protection prevents damage from accidental miswiring, but always double-check connections before powering up. Regular testing of the holdup time (10 Milliseconds) ensures your system rides through brief voltage sags.
Compatibility & Integration
The IC200PWR001 integrates seamlessly with the Versamax series, powering I/O modules, CPUs, and NIUs. It works as the primary supply on the CPU or NIU station or as a secondary supply for larger I/O configurations. No additional communication protocols are required—this module focuses solely on delivering clean DC power to the backplane.
Selection Guide & Purchasing Advice
Before ordering, confirm that your system requires a 24 Volts DC input and that your total load does not exceed 1.5 A maximum. If you need more current, consider a booster or secondary supply. The IC200PWR001 does not support extended or isolated power options. SpareTechPLC stocks this module and can advise on availability and lifecycle status.
