BC810K02
GE
Overview
The BC810K02 is an automation component from GE. Article number 3BSE031155R1 (BC810K02).
Application & Technical Notes
As an automation component, the BC810K02 is intended for deployment in panel-based control cabinets and machine enclosures where the GE product portfolio equipment is installed. It performs a defined automation function within the control system and is selected to match the installed GE platform.
Specific electrical and mechanical ratings depend on the exact configuration and suffix of the part; the original datasheet should be consulted for the definitive specification.
Maintenance & Diagnostics
Avoid condensation — the rated humidity is 5 to 95 %, non-condensing; store and operate the module in a dry, pollution-degree-appropriate enclosure. Inspect terminals and connectors for corrosion or looseness, and confirm the module seats correctly in its carrier. Always de-energise the circuit and follow lock-out/tag-out before handling; refer to the official instruction bulletin for service procedures.
Sourcing & Procurement
When sourcing the BC810K02, distinguish three supply tiers: (1) genuine GE stock from an authorised distributor; (2) compatible equivalents or surplus/NOS (new-old-stock) from third parties; (3) alternative parts offering equivalent function. Genuine supply carries the full warranty and traceability; compatible or alternative items may be cheaper but should be validated for form, fit, firmware and certification before use in a live system. PLCXpert publishes this page as an independent reference and does not sell the part — verify every claim with the manufacturer or your distributor.
Confirm mechanical and electrical compatibility with your GE product portfolio installation and the intended function. Lead times and pricing vary by region and lifecycle status; obtain a current quote from an authorised channel rather than relying on stale listings.

General info
Dimensions
| Note | Width 59 mm (2.9 in.) Height 185 mm (7.3 in.) Depth 127.5 mm (5.0 in.) Weight (including base) 1.5 kg (3.31 lbs) (BC810K02 package) The BC810 unit consists of two basic parts: baseplate (TP857) and power supply/logic board. The baseplate is where the connectors to CEX-Bus and the external power reside. It is grounded to the DIN-rail through metal parts of the housing. The board also carries the external power voting diode and fuse. The power supply and logic board contain the +3.3 V converter, logic, drivers for CEX-Bus interconnection, and the connector for the interconnection cable. The BC810 can be used with PM857, PM861A, PM862, PM863, PM864A, PM865, PM866, PM866A, PM867 and PM891. In a fully redundant system with two interlinked BC810 and primary/backup CPU pair, the BC810 support online replacement of the CPU baseplate without disturbing the CEX traffic. If the BC810 has to be replaced, all traffic to the connected CEX segment is stopped. The CEX-Bus is used for extending the onboard communication ports with communication interface units. It is also possible to use redundant communication interfaces on the CEX-Bus. The CEX-Bus Interconnection unit BC810 is used to increase the availability of the CEX-Bus by dividing it into separate segments. This improves the availability of systems with redundant communication interfaces. Features and benefits Supports redundant communication interface units. Supports on-line replacement of the CPU. External power supply. Supports hot swap |
