GE IC600CB507/RR 8k Register Memory Card

The GE IC600CB507/RR is an 8k Register Memory Card used in General Electric’s Series Six programmable logic controller (PLC) systems. It’s a legacy component that provides additional memory for the PLC’s CPU, allowing it to store and execute larger or more complex control programs.

Product Overview

The IC600CB507/RR serves as a vital memory expansion module for GE Series Six PLCs. The “8k Register” in its name indicates its storage capacity, which is used by the PLC’s processor to hold data, control logic, and other program variables. This module is essential for applications that require more memory than what is built into the main CPU.

• Function: Provides 8k of additional register memory for a Series Six CPU.
• System Compatibility: Designed to work with GE Series Six PLCs, a popular line of industrial controllers from the past.
• Application: Used to expand the memory capacity of existing PLC systems, enabling them to run more sophisticated programs or handle more complex data.

Since this component is part of an obsolete product line, new units are not manufactured. Maintenance and repair of these systems rely on finding refurbished or surplus parts from specialized vendors.

Related Components

If you’re working with this memory card, you’ll likely be dealing with other Series Six components, such as:

• CPU Modules: The central processing units (e.g., IC600BF9xx series) that utilize the memory provided by this card.
• I/O Modules: Various cards that connect the PLC to external sensors and actuators.
• Power Supplies: Units that provide power to the entire PLC rack.

Always verify part numbers and compatibility to ensure a proper fit and function within your specific system.
