GE Fanuc IC200CPU005

Part Number: IC200CPU005
Catalog Description: The IC200CPU005 CPU is an integral component of GE's Versamax series, engineered for versatile industrial automation applications. This CPU features dual serial ports and offers 64 KB of configurable memory, supporting up to 64 modules and a maximum of 2048 I/O points. Users can configure the IC200CPU005 either through auto-configuration or manual setup using dedicated software. Designed for easy operation, the unit includes a RUN/STOP switch and provides advanced floating-point data functions. The backplane currents are specified at 35mA output at 5V without additional devices, and 135mA output at 5V when either a serial port converter or an EZ Program Store device is employed. Installation is streamlined on a 35mm x 7.5mm DIN rail, ensuring both the CPU and connectors occupy the same rail section. For optimal electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) protection, the DIN rail should not be painted and must be grounded appropriately. Mounting is tool-free, as the IC200CPU005 easily snaps onto the rail; however, screws should be spaced approximately 6 inches apart for stability. The product comes with a pre-installed battery, which requires activation by removing the insulator tab before initial use, while battery replacement necessitates a small screwdriver. Caution is advised against the use of incorrect battery types, as this may pose a fire or explosion hazard.
