Product Overview
When a legacy VersaMax Micro line goes down, every hour of downtime costs money. The IC200UDR005 is a 28-point micro PLC from the GE Fanuc / GE Intelligent Platforms VersaMax series, now owned by Emerson. It packs 16 discrete inputs, 11 relay outputs and one transistor output into a compact 90 × 76 × 150 mm housing that runs directly on 120/240 VAC supply.
This is a practical controller for panel builders and maintenance teams who need a proven, ready-to-ship unit for oil, gas and general industrial automation duties.
Technical Specifications
The IC200UDR005 balances mixed I/O with simple serial communications. Key parameters:
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Series | VersaMax Micro |
| Discrete I/O | 16 × 24 VDC inputs; 11 × relay outputs (Form A, 2 A max.); 1 × 24 VDC transistor output (0.5 A) |
| Total points | 28 |
| Processor | Hitachi Super-H, 28.0 MHz |
| Execution time | 1.0 µs per Boolean operation |
| Program memory | Flash |
| Supply voltage | 120/240 VAC |
| Built-in ports | 1 × RS-232, 1 × RS-485 |
| Protocols | SNP, Modbus RTU |
| Expansion | Up to 4 units (up to 84 I/O points) |
What the I/O Mix Means in Practice
The 16 × 24 VDC inputs handle standard sensor and switch signals. The 11 Form A relay outputs switch loads up to 2 A, so they can drive contactors, solenoids and indicator circuits without an interposing relay. The single 0.5 A transistor output suits fast, repetitive switching where relay contacts would wear. The 1.0 µs Boolean execution time keeps scan cycles short on logic-heavy programs.
Where the IC200UDR005 Fits
Oil and gas skids. The 120/240 VAC supply suits panels without a 24 VDC bus. Relay outputs drive valve pilots and alarm circuits directly.
Water and wastewater. Modbus RTU over RS-485 links the PLC to SCADA or a plant master, while local inputs monitor float switches and pressure trips.
Packaging and material handling. The 28-point count covers small machines without expansion, and up to four expansion units allow later growth to 84 points.
Integration Notes
SNP and Modbus RTU run over the built-in RS-232 and RS-485 ports. Wiring into a plant network may require an external gateway or connection module; confirm cables and gateways with your supplier before commissioning. The IP20 rating means the unit belongs inside a clean enclosure, not on an open panel.
Selection and Availability
Before ordering, confirm your I/O count, output type and supply voltage match this configuration. Official Emerson production status is unverified; the IC200UDR005 is currently available in aftermarket channels (last verified 2026-09). Please verify current lifecycle status and availability with Oil AutoTech before ordering.
