Features:
- Adds four 24 VDC inputs and four sinking transistor outputs in one module.
- Provides separate Power, OK and point-level LED indication.
- Supports modular I/O growth on compatible VersaMax Micro controllers.
The sink-output arrangement completes the load path toward the field return and fits devices wired for that polarity.
A 24 VDC module supply powers local electronics, while the output loads use their own external field source through the common circuit.
Expansion connectors on both sides make the unit an intermediate or final member of a multi-module chain.
The General Electric IC200UEC108 VersaMax Micro 8-Point Expansion Unit may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Supported Micro PLC Hosts
- Controller Sizes: Compatible hosts range from 14-point through 64-point VersaMax Micro PLCs.
- Mixed Chains: The controller can use supported expansion types in the same chain.
- Maximum Count: No more than four expansion units may follow one base PLC.
- Station Reach: Expansion hardware may be positioned within two meters of the controller.
Input and Common Arrangement
- Logic Choice: Inputs accept positive- or negative-logic 24 VDC signals.
- Common Wiring: The common connection must correspond to the selected sensor polarity.
- Terminal Removal: Field conductors remain on the terminal assembly during module service.
- Isolation: Field circuits are electrically separated from internal logic.
Sink Circuit Precautions
- Current Direction: Each output provides the return path for a 24 VDC load.
- External Fuse: Fast field fusing should interrupt short-circuit current before transistor damage occurs.
- Point Limit: No output should exceed 0.7 A under normal operation.
- Common Limit: Combined current on the shared common must remain at or below 3 A.
Expansion Cable Selection
- Standard Cable: IC200CBL501 supplies the included 0.1 m connection.
- Alternate Length: IC200CBL505 extends the link to 0.5 m.
- One-Meter Option: IC200CBL510 is available for longer spacing.
- Route Control: The complete chain must remain within the permitted two-meter distance.
