The GE Fanuc IC200CPU002 serves as the high-performance intelligence center for the VersaMax modular PLC system. This 32-bit RISC central processing unit manages complex automation sequences with an impressive scan rate of 0.4 ms per 1K of logic. Designed for scalability and speed, it handles up to 2048 digital I/O points and 1024 analog I/O points, making it the ideal choice for mid-to-large scale manufacturing, utility monitoring, and process control applications. The module integrates dual-port communication (RS-232 and RS-485) to provide versatile connectivity with HMI, SCADA, and peripheral devices.

The IC200CPU002 delivers high-speed processing and secure operational control for modern control cabinets:
High-Efficiency 32-Bit Architecture: The 60 MHz RISC processor executes complex mathematical instructions and PID loops with minimal latency. This hardware-level speed ensures that high-speed packaging or sorting lines maintain precise timing without jitter.
Dual-Protocol Communication Hub: Port 1 (RS-232) and Port 2 (RS-485) operate simultaneously. This allows engineers to maintain a local HMI connection while communicating with a broader SCADA network or multi-drop RS-485 serial bus using RTU or SNP protocols.
Configurable Memory Allocation: The module offers 42 KB of user-configurable memory. Engineers can shift the balance between register storage and logic space to suit data-heavy applications (like logging) or logic-heavy sequences (like complex motion control).
Industrial Safety & State Control: A dedicated manual Run/Stop switch sits behind a protective door. This physical interlock prevents accidental software-triggered state changes during field maintenance, providing an additional layer of hardware-based security for plant personnel.
Is this GE Fanuc IC200CPU002 unit 100% Brand New?
Yes. We supply the IC200CPU002 in 100% Brand New and Original condition. Each CPU module ships in original factory packaging, ensuring all internal memory capacitors and the real-time clock battery remain at peak operational life.
Does this CPU require a specific I/O carrier?
Yes. The IC200CPU002 installs onto a VersaMax CPU carrier (such as the IC200CHS001). This modular approach allows you to replace the CPU without disturbing the field wiring connected to the power supply or I/O modules.
What is the battery life for the memory backup?
The integrated battery maintains the real-time clock and configurable user memory for approximately 5 years. We recommend checking the battery status during annual maintenance cycles to prevent data loss in the event of a prolonged power outage.
Can I use this CPU with VersaMax Expansion racks?
Absolutely. The IC200CPU002 supports expanded I/O architectures. By using expansion transmitter and receiver modules, this CPU can manage I/O modules across multiple racks while maintaining the same 2048-point address space.
Our production line was down due to a faulty Bently Nevada monitor. We found it in stock here and they shipped it via DHL immediately. Back in operation within 48 hours—truly a lifesaver for our plant.
Finding brand new, original modules is critical for our safety. This team delivers factory-fresh components with full certification. Their commitment to only selling new products makes them our most trusted partner.
