Compatible Replacement & Equivalent Models
When the GE 8717-CA-PS is unavailable or discontinued, the following models may serve as functional equivalents depending on your system configuration. Always verify electrical and mechanical compatibility before substitution.
| Model | Brand | Compatibility Notes |
|---|---|---|
| IS200EPSMG1A | GE | Mark VIe EX2100 power supply — verify backplane pinout |
| IS215PSDBH1A | GE | Mark VIe distributed power — confirm output rating |
| 8717-CA-PS-R | GE | Revised revision — functionally equivalent, check firmware |
| PSMV-24VDC-10A | Third-party | Generic 24VDC DIN-rail PSU — requires wiring adaptation |
Note: Konmask.com recommends using the original GE part number wherever possible to ensure full system warranty and safety compliance.
Why Choose the Original Model
- System-Certified: Factory-validated for Mark VIe backplane voltage tolerance and ripple specifications
- Firmware Compatibility: Ensures seamless communication with GE Mark VIe I/O and controller modules
- Safety Compliance: Meets UL, CE, and IEC 61010 standards as part of the certified control system
- Warranty Integrity: Using OEM parts preserves GE system-level warranty and service agreements
- Reduced Downtime Risk: Eliminates integration testing overhead associated with third-party substitutes
Typical Applications
- Gas turbine and steam turbine control panels (GE Mark VIe)
- Combined-cycle power plant automation systems
- Compressor station control and monitoring
- Offshore and onshore oil & gas platform control rooms
- Industrial generator excitation and protection systems
- Retrofit and upgrade projects for legacy Mark V / Mark VI systems
System Compatibility
The 8717-CA-PS is designed for integration within the following GE control architectures:
- GE Mark VIe — Primary target platform (UCSC, VCMI, VTUR, VPRO modules)
- GE Mark VI — Verify backplane connector compatibility before installation
- GE EX2100e Excitation System — Confirm power rail specifications
- GE LS2100 Static Starter — Application-specific; consult engineering team
Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to confirm the GE 8717-CA-PS is the correct module for your application:
- Identify your control system series — Confirm Mark VIe (not Mark V or Mark VI)
- Check output voltage requirement — Must match 24VDC regulated output
- Verify backplane slot type — CA-series carrier board required
- Confirm input voltage range — AC 120V or 240V site supply
- Review redundancy requirements — Single or dual PSU configuration
- Check revision level — Contact Konmask.com to confirm available revision matches your system BOM

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can I use a third-party 24VDC power supply as a direct replacement?
A: Electrically possible in some cases, but not recommended. The 8717-CA-PS is calibrated for Mark VIe backplane impedance and ripple tolerance. Third-party units may cause instability or void system certification.
Q: Is the 8717-CA-PS compatible with Mark V systems?
A: No. Mark V uses a different power architecture. Please contact us with your Mark V part number for a correct cross-reference.
Q: Do you supply refurbished units?
A: Yes. Refurbished units are available at reduced cost and include full functional testing and a 90-day warranty. Please specify “refurbished” in your inquiry.
Q: Can you source discontinued GE parts?
A: Yes. Konmask.com specializes in sourcing obsolete and hard-to-find industrial automation components. Contact us with your full BOM for availability assessment.
Q: What documentation is included with the shipment?
A: Packing list, Certificate of Conformance, and test report. Export documentation (commercial invoice, HS code declaration) included for international orders.
