GE IC200ERM002 Non-Isolated Expansion Receiver Module – VersaMax I/O Series
When a VersaMax I/O expansion receiver module fails or goes missing from your control cabinet, the entire downstream I/O station loses communication with the CPU. Field signals go dark, process loops break open, and operators face unplanned downtime that can cost thousands of dollars per hour. The GE IC200ERM002 is the exact component that bridges your VersaMax main rack to remote expansion racks — without it, your distributed I/O architecture simply cannot function.
The IC200ERM002 occupies a critical position within GE’s VersaMax I/O product family. As a non-isolated expansion receiver module, it accepts the high-speed serial expansion bus from a VersaMax Network Interface Unit (NIU) or CPU carrier and distributes I/O data across local expansion racks. Widely deployed across North American and European manufacturing plants since the late 1990s, this module remains one of the most sought-after spare parts in the GE legacy automation ecosystem — a testament to the long service life of VersaMax-based control systems worldwide.

Key Features & Benefits
- Seamless Expansion Bus Bridging: Extends the VersaMax I/O bus from the primary rack to local expansion racks without requiring additional network infrastructure.
- Non-Isolated Design: Shares a common ground reference with the main rack, simplifying wiring in environments where electrical isolation is not required.
- High-Speed Data Transfer: Supports the full VersaMax serial expansion bus bandwidth, ensuring deterministic I/O scan times critical for real-time process control.
- Compact Form Factor: Occupies a single slot on the VersaMax carrier, maximizing rack density in space-constrained panels.
- Long-Term Availability: Konmask.com maintains stock of legacy GE VersaMax modules to support plants running multi-decade control system lifecycles.
- Drop-In Replacement: Direct hardware replacement for failed IC200ERM002 units — no firmware changes or CPU reconfiguration required in most applications.
Industry & Equipment Applications
- Automotive Manufacturing: Body-in-white assembly lines, paint shop conveyors, and powertrain test stands using GE VersaMax distributed I/O.
- Oil & Gas: Wellhead control panels and pipeline SCADA remote terminal units (RTUs) built on VersaMax platforms.
- Water & Wastewater Treatment: Pump station automation and chemical dosing systems with legacy GE PLC architectures.
- Food & Beverage: Packaging lines and filling machines where VersaMax I/O handles discrete sensor and actuator signals.
- Power Generation & Utilities: Substation automation and auxiliary control systems using GE Intelligent Platforms hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between IC200ERM002 and IC200ERM001?
A: The IC200ERM001 is the isolated expansion receiver module, providing electrical isolation between the expansion bus and the local rack. The IC200ERM002 is the non-isolated version, sharing a common ground reference. Selection depends on your system’s electrical isolation requirements — consult your GE VersaMax system manual or contact Konmask.com for guidance.
Q: Is the IC200ERM002 still manufactured by GE?
A: GE’s automation division (formerly GE Intelligent Platforms) was acquired by Emerson and rebranded as Emerson Automation Solutions. The IC200ERM002 is a legacy product and may no longer be in active production. Konmask.com specializes in sourcing new surplus and quality-tested used units to support ongoing maintenance needs.
Q: Can I use IC200ERM002 with a GE PACSystems RX3i system?
A: The IC200ERM002 is designed for the VersaMax I/O platform. While VersaMax I/O can be used as remote I/O with PACSystems via a VersaMax NIU, the ERM002 itself operates within the VersaMax local expansion bus. Please contact our technical team to confirm compatibility with your specific PACSystems configuration.
Q: What is the lead time for IC200ERM002?
A: Lead time depends on current stock levels. In-stock units typically ship within 1–3 business days. For out-of-stock situations, sourcing lead time is typically 1–3 weeks. Submit an RFQ for a confirmed availability date.
Q: Do you provide a certificate of conformance or test report?
A: Yes. For tested units, Konmask.com can provide a test report and certificate of conformance upon request. Please specify this requirement when submitting your RFQ.
