IC800SSI228RD2-CE | GE Electric Micro-PLC Module
Product Description
The GE IC800SSI228RD2-CE is a Micro-PLC Module from GE’s VersaMax Micro series, integrating 28 I/O points (16 digital inputs + 12 relay outputs) and embedded control logic. It functions as a compact, standalone controller for simple automation tasks, supporting Modbus RTU communication and cloud connectivity via GE’s Edge Controls platform for remote monitoring.
Key Features
- Integrated I/O: 16x 24V DC inputs + 12x relay outputs (5A SPDT).
- Embedded Control: Runs ladder logic without external CPU.
- Modbus RTU Slave: RS-485 interface for SCADA integration.
- Industrial IoT Ready: Built-in MQTT/OPC UA for cloud analytics (Edge Controls).
- Plug-in Terminals: Tool-free wiring for easy maintenance.
- Diagnostic LEDs: Per-channel status indication (input/output health).

- Agriculture: Irrigation valve sequencing.
Functional Role
- Localized Control: Executes logic for I/O devices without central PLC.
- Data Gateway: Transfers Modbus data to SCADA/cloud via RS-485.
- Fault Containment: Isolates failures to single-machine level.
- Edge Analytics: Sends operational data to GE Predix cloud for predictive maintenance.
Why Choose IC800SSI228RD2-CE?
- Cost-Effective: 50% lower cost vs. traditional PLC systems.
- Quick Deployment: Pre-programmed templates for common tasks.
- Space Optimized: 90mm width (DIN-rail mounting).
- Legacy Modernization: Retrofits old relay panels with IoT capabilities.
- Scalable: Expands via VersaMax I/O bases (up to 128 points).
Critical Notes:
- Not safety-rated (SIL/PL unsuitable). Max ambient temp: 60°C.
- “-CE” suffix includes Edge Controls license (GE part number V76982-100010).
- Relay outputs require snubbers for inductive loads.
