Description
Product Overview
The IC200ACC414 is a dedicated long-life backup battery designed for GE Fanuc VersaMax Micro PLC platforms. It is used to maintain volatile memory and real-time clock functions during power interruption, ensuring that controller data integrity and system timekeeping remain stable even under extended downtime conditions.
This battery is intended for use in Micro PLC configurations where non-volatile memory retention is required for program continuity and accurate time-based control operations.
Functional Role
The unit supplies backup power to:
It supports uninterrupted data preservation for configuration parameters, logic programs, and time-dependent control sequences when main system power is removed.

Design Characteristics
The battery is engineered for stable low-current discharge over extended periods. Its lithium-based chemistry ensures consistent voltage output, which is critical for maintaining memory retention circuits in embedded PLC systems.
The cylindrical form factor allows direct integration into compatible VersaMax CPU modules without external wiring or adapters.
System Compatibility
The IC200ACC414 is compatible with multiple VersaMax Micro PLC CPU configurations, including compact and mid-range point-count controllers. It is designed specifically for GE Fanuc Emerson VersaMax architectures and is not intended for general-purpose industrial batteries.
Operational Considerations
Battery replacement should be performed while the PLC is powered or following manufacturer maintenance procedures to prevent data loss. The service life is influenced by ambient temperature, PLC power cycling frequency, and memory retention load.
Typical Applications
-
PLC program memory retention systems
-
Real-time clock backup for process sequencing
-
Small machine control systems requiring non-volatile logic storage
-
OEM equipment with intermittent power supply conditions
-
Distributed control units requiring persistent configuration storage
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Does the battery affect PLC operation during normal running?
No. It only activates during power loss to preserve memory and clock functions.
Q2: Can this battery be recharged?
No. It is a non-rechargeable lithium primary cell designed for long-term standby use.
Q3: What happens when the battery is depleted?
RAM and time data may be lost during power interruption, requiring reconfiguration.
Q4: Is it compatible with non-VersaMax PLC systems?
No. It is designed specifically for VersaMax Micro PLC platforms.
