Provides the local carrier interface for communications hardware in a VersaMax modular station.
Product Identification
IC200CHS006 is the Emerson VersaMax local communications carrier used to provide a carrier position for supported communications hardware in the modular I/O system.
This page covers the exact unsuffixed IC200CHS006 identity. IC200CHS006H is recorded separately because the H suffix is part of the installed hardware release.

Functions
Maintains a defined position for the installed module and associated network wiring.
Allows the base carrier identity to be managed without assigning an unsupported suffix.
Supports modular diagnostics by separating carrier, communications module and network records.
Applications
- VersaMax modular I/O stations using a supported local communications module.
- Replacement where the installed carrier label is exactly IC200CHS006 without a suffix.
- Panel maintenance that preserves network terminations, addressing and station order.
- Legacy spares management based on the complete carrier and module labels.
Lifecycle
- Photograph the base-model label and the installed communications module.
- Save station and network configuration before disconnecting the carrier.
- Document topology, termination, shielding, addressing and power arrangement.
- Treat a suffix-bearing carrier as a separate execution until Emerson compatibility is confirmed.
- Test station recognition and every dependent communications path after replacement.

IndustryParts supplies IC200CHS006 as labeled and does not silently convert it to the H-suffix execution.
- Base code retained
- Suffix not assumed
- Installed wiring reviewed
FAQ
Does IC200CHS006 automatically include the H revision?
No. This identity is unsuffixed; IC200CHS006H is a separate labeled execution and should not be assumed.
What must be identified besides IC200CHS006?
Record the communications module mounted on it, station location, controller, network type and adjacent hardware.
Can a carrier fault look like a network-module fault on IC200CHS006?
Yes. Connector damage, seating, power or wiring can affect communication, so inspect the carrier and module together.
What wiring details matter when replacing IC200CHS006?
Preserve terminal designations, shields, termination, polarity, network address and cable routing.
How should a replacement IC200CHS006 be proven?
Confirm normal local diagnostics, stable network traffic and valid data exchange with each controller or node in the documented topology.
