Product Overview
The GE IC200PWB001 is a VersaMax power booster module designed to enhance the power capacity of VersaMax programmable logic controllers (PLCs). This module supplements the power supply by providing additional current to drive input/output modules, sensors, and other connected devices within the control system.
Engineered for compactness and efficiency, the IC200PWB001 ensures that the system maintains consistent voltage and current levels, particularly in applications with high I/O density or where multiple modules demand increased power. Its robust design meets industrial standards, guaranteeing reliability and longevity in harsh manufacturing environments.
The power booster integrates seamlessly with existing VersaMax setups, allowing system expansions without the need for a complete power supply overhaul. The module’s ease of installation and compatibility make it an ideal choice for system upgrades and retrofits.
