Description

IC200PWB001 Product Overview
The IC200PWB001 is a passive DIN-rail carrier used inside Emerson VersaMax I/O stations. It occupies one slot on the 35 mm DIN rail and provides the mechanical and electrical footprint for snapping in a second (or third) VersaMax power supply module—typically IC200PWR002 or IC200PWR102—when the base supply no longer has enough 5 V or 24 V capacity to feed all I/O modules to its right.
In the automation hierarchy the carrier sits at the “power-extension” layer: it carries the backplane signals (5 V, ±12 V, 24 V relay, and logic ground) through gold-plated edge fingers so the additional PSU can source current for extra I/O without voltage drop. Because it is passive, it adds no load to the backplane; its only function is to extend the power bus and provide the correct latch and LED cut-outs for the chosen PSU module.

The carrier is part of the VersaMax “booster” family—cards that share the 66.8 mm footprint and 28 mm depth but perform mechanical rather than electrical functions. Using a common form factor allows plant stores to stock one spare carrier and populate it with the exact PSU required for each expansion segment.

Core Features & Customer Value
Passive extension – Adds no electrical load; simply extends the backplane power bus so a second PSU can feed extra I/O modules without voltage sag.
DIN-rail snap-fit – 35 mm rail mount with positive latch; no tools required for insertion or removal, cutting commissioning time.
Standard VersaMax footprint – 66.8 mm width matches I/O and PSU modules, keeping the rack neat and allowing mixed horizontal/vertical mounting.
LED window & latch cut-outs – Provides visual and mechanical interface for the chosen PSU module, so operators see power-good status without opening the panel.

Zone-2 / marine ready – Carrier and mating PSU are certified for Class I Div 2 and marine environments, so the extension can be added in hazardous-location panels without extra barriers

Typical Applications
In packaging machines the IC200PWB001 is snapped onto the DIN rail after the base PSU when the 5 V load exceeds 2 A; a second IC200PWR002 is inserted, doubling the backplane current to feed extra high-speed counter modules.
In water-treatment plants the same carrier is used when a remote VersaMax node grows beyond 16 I/O modules; the booster PSU feeds the additional analog cards without dropping the 5 V rail.
Because the carrier is certified for marine environments, it is also used on off-shore platforms to extend power to subsea valve-position feedback modules without adding a second enclosure.
