GE VersaMax IC200UEX214 16 Input 12 Output Module

Product Overview

The GE Fanuc IC200UEX214 functions as a high-density I/O expansion for the VersaMax Micro PLC family. It adds 28 discrete points to the controller, specifically providing 16 DC inputs and 12 DC transistor outputs. This unit enables machine builders and system integrators to scale up automation for packaging, material handling, and light industrial equipment without upgrading to a larger, more expensive PLC platform.

Engineering Advantages

• Space-Efficient Scaling: The compact footprint maximizes I/O density within small control cabinets, allowing for 28 additional points without significantly increasing the enclosure size.

• Enhanced Signal Integrity: High isolation voltages (1500V RMS) protect the sensitive logic side from field-side electrical noise and surges, ensuring stable CPU operation in electrically "dirty" environments.

• Versatile Input Logic: The 16 inputs accommodate both positive and negative logic configurations. This flexibility allows direct connection to a wide variety of proximity sensors, limit switches, and pushbuttons.

• High-Speed Transistor Switching: The 12 transistor outputs drive DC loads like solenoid valves and relay coils with high frequency and no mechanical wear, significantly reducing long-term maintenance costs compared to relay modules.

• Integrated Device Power: The unit features a 200mA auxiliary output. This allows engineers to power local sensors directly from the expansion module, simplifying field wiring and reducing the need for external power distribution blocks.

FAQs

• Is this IC200UEX214 unit brand new?Yes. We supply this module as 100% brand new, original GE Fanuc factory-sealed stock, complete with a 12-month replacement warranty.

• Does this expansion unit require a separate power supply?The module operates on a 24Vdc input. It also provides a 200mA output to power external input devices or sensors, which streamlines cabinet wiring.

• Can I hot-swap this module while the VersaMax Micro PLC is running?No. You must power down the system before connecting or disconnecting expansion cables to prevent electrical damage to the PLC bus.

• How do I verify the status of the I/O points?The front panel features integrated LED indicators for every input and output point, allowing maintenance personnel to diagnose field-side wiring issues at a glance without a laptop.
