GE IC800SSD104RS1-DC – 10.4-inch DC-powered HMI for reliable machine interface

The GE IC800SSD104RS1-DC appears to be a 10.4-inch, panel-mount HMI designed for industrial operators who need a dependable, DC-powered interface at the machine. From my experience, the IC800 family typically blends a rugged resistive touchscreen with practical connectivity—serial, Ethernet, and USB—so it slots easily into existing control architectures without fuss. One thing I appreciate is how these 10.4-inch panels fit neatly into mid-size cabinets while still giving enough screen real estate for clear alarms, setpoints, and trends.

You might notice that the “RS1-DC” suffix suggests a resistive touch variant on 24 VDC, which suits most shop-floor power rails. In many cases, it’s configured with standard GE/Emerson HMI tools and talks seamlessly to PLCs over Ethernet or serial—handy for retrofit lines where you don’t want to rewrite everything. A maintenance supervisor told us they swapped their aging panel with this model in under 30 minutes, re-using the existing cutout and Ethernet drop.

Order Placement Process and Guarantees

• Warranty: 365 days
• Delivery time: typically 1 week for in‑stock; no more than one month at the latest

• Express delivery: FedEx, UPS, DHL

Key Features

• 10.4-inch resistive touchscreen – readable on the floor, supports glove use in most cases without needing high touch sensitivity.
• 24 VDC power input – aligns with common control cabinet power; typically tolerant of 18–30 VDC.
• Industrial connectivity – commonly includes Ethernet 10/100 plus RS‑232/RS‑485 for legacy PLC links; USB for project transfer or maintenance.
• Panel-mount design – straightforward installation with mounting clips and gasket; front panel typically sealed when properly installed.
• Rugged build – suited for 24/7 environments; the 10.4-inch form factor balances footprint with clear visualization.
• Project portability – in many cases, project updates can be handled via USB or Ethernet for quick turnaround during downtime.

Technical Specifications

Related or Supporting Products

• IC800SSD104RS1-AC – similar 10.4-inch unit with AC power input (for panels without 24 VDC available).
• IC800SSD070RS1-DC – 7-inch DC-powered model when cabinet space is tighter and fewer objects need to be shown.
• IC800SSD124RS1-DC – 12.1-inch DC-powered model for applications needing larger screens or multi‑pane dashboards.
• 24 VDC DIN-rail PSU (e.g., 60–100 W) – stable, low‑ripple supply recommended for HMI + network gear.
• Panel mounting kit & gasket – maintain proper compression to achieve IP/NEMA front rating.
• Industrial Ethernet switch – if multiple PLCs or drives must connect; choose managed if VLANs/IGMP are required.

Installation & Maintenance

• Cabinet & mounting: Use a flat, rigid panel; deburr the cutout; install the gasket dry; tighten clips evenly. Leave clearance behind the unit for airflow and cabling (I typically allow 60–80 mm).
• Power & grounding: 24 VDC with protective earth; use a dedicated, fused branch. Keep common‑mode noise low with proper grounding and a clean PSU.
• Wiring: Shielded twisted‑pair for RS‑485; segregate signal and power; avoid routing near VFD outputs. Use industrial‑grade Ethernet patch cords.
• Environment: Typical operating 0–50 °C, 5–95% RH non‑condensing. Provide ventilation; avoid direct oil spray or abrasive dust at the front.
• Routine care: Wipe the screen with a soft, slightly damp lint‑free cloth (no solvents). Back up the project file; consider firmware updates during planned downtime.
• Commissioning tips: Assign a fixed IP for the HMI; confirm PLC protocol settings (baud, parity, node IDs) if using serial links. You might notice communications become more stable after locking speed/duplex on older switches.

Quality & Certifications

• CE compliant (EMC & LVD) – typical for GE industrial HMIs
• cULus listed – for use in North American industrial panels
• RoHS – lead‑free construction in most current builds
• Manufacturer’s warranty: 12 months (365 days)
