GE IC200CHS003D VersaMax PLC Discrete I/O Module for Compact Systems

The IC200CHS003D provides discrete input and output functions for VersaMax PLC systems. This compact module saves valuable panel space for small automation tasks. You can rely on it for simple machine control and monitoring applications.

Key Technical Parameters

The table below lists all essential technical specifications for this discrete I/O module.

Physical Characteristics and Installation

This discrete I/O module weighs approximately 0.25 kg for DIN rail mounting. Its dimensions measure 110 mm x 70 mm x 50 mm for compact cabinet placement. First, clip the IC200CHS003D onto a 35 mm DIN rail. Then, connect your sensors and actuators to the screw terminals. Finally, attach the module to the VersaMax bus connector. LED indicators on the front show the real-time status of every channel.

Input Specifications and Signal Detection

The IC200CHS003D provides 8 digital input channels for field sensors. Each channel accepts 24V DC nominal signals from switches and proximity sensors. The module draws only 5 mA per channel for reliable detection. A 2 ms response time captures standard machine events reliably. Optocouplers isolate every input from the internal logic circuits for safety.

Output Specifications and Protection Features

This module delivers 8 transistor outputs for driving small actuators. Each output supplies up to 0.5 A at 24V DC. Built-in short-circuit protection prevents damage during wiring faults. Overload protection shuts down the affected output automatically. The IC200CHS003D responds to output commands in just 1 ms. The total current consumption reaches 100 mA without connected loads.
