Features:
- Event storage for up to 8000 controller events
- 8750-CA-NS or 8751-CA-NS carrier mounting options
- EEx nL IIC T4 and Class I, Division 2 hazardous-location approvals
GE 8851-LC-MT receives 12 VDC from the 8913-PS-AC supply and draws 0.4 A typically or 0.5 A maximum, with a maximum 15 mA demand from the system supply.
The 8751-CA-NS carrier adds earth-leakage detection, while the 8750-CA-NS provides the standard mounting arrangement for the controller.
The event store retains as many as 8000 records, and the front-panel indicators expose controller state and diagnostic conditions for maintenance review.
Apter Power supports sourcing and official documentation requests for the GE 8851-LC-MT SafetyNet Controller used in PAC8000 safety-system maintenance.

Certified safety behavior
- SIL Certification: The controller is certified for IEC 61508 SIL 2 safety applications.
- Architecture: A 1oo1D arrangement combines single-channel control with comprehensive diagnostic coverage.
- Fault Response: Detected critical faults initiate a controlled shutdown instead of uncontrolled operation.
- Safe State: Output channels are directed to their configured safe values during a shutdown sequence.
Controller data paths
- Ethernet: Two RJ45 ports support 10BaseT or 100BaseTX SafetyNet peer-to-peer communications.
- Serial Ports: COM 1 and COM 2 provide RS485 half-duplex communication from 1.2 to 115.2 kbit/s.
- Railbus: The internal Railbus carries data between the controller and local PAC8000 I/O modules.
- HART Pass-through: Process and status variables can pass to maintenance applications without becoming part of the safety application.
Master-standby operation
- Pairing: A second controller can be installed to form a master and standby pair.
- Synchronization: The master transfers application and I/O state information to the standby controller.
- Transfer: A qualified standby controller can assume control without disturbing the controlled process.
- Firmware Match: Both controllers require identical firmware and control strategy before redundancy is accepted.
